Auxiliary Cooling Auxiliary cooling refers to the use of additional fans or cooling systems to regulate the temperature of the printed material during a 3D print. Proper cooling is essential for maintaining the structural integrity of the model, especially for materials like PLA that benefit from rapid solidification. Auxiliary cooling helps reduce defects such as sagging, stringing, or deformation in overhangs and bridges. In some cases, cooling can be fine-tuned through slicer settings to match the requirements of specific geometries or materials. While effective for certain materials, excessive cooling may cause warping in materials like ABS, so proper balance is key. |
