Air Gap Air gap refers to the intentional or unintentional spacing between layers or between support structures and the printed model. In FDM printing, slicer software often allows users to set a specific air gap between supports and the model to make removal easier during post-processing. If the air gap is too large, supports may fail to provide adequate stability, while a gap that’s too small can make them difficult to detach. Air gaps can also result from incorrect extrusion or miscalibration, leading to weak bonding between layers. Proper air gap settings ensure both structural integrity and ease of support removal.
