Build Time Build time is the total duration required to complete a 3D print, from the start of the first layer to the final layer. It depends on factors like print speed, layer height, infill density, and the complexity of the model. Thinner layers and higher infill percentages increase build time but improve print quality, while coarser settings reduce time but may compromise detail. Slicer software provides estimated build times to help users plan their prints. Balancing speed and quality is key to optimizing build time for specific applications. |
