Summary

Quick Tower for both material temperature and retraction parameters

Most of the TempTower took hours to print, and this quick tower serve the same function as other calibration towers, except the printing size/volume/time will only took less than 15 minutes, if set up correctly

3 variation provided
10 storeys / 5 storeys high
with or without Bridging test plus 60 degree overhang
PLA temperature indicator

The tower was made by Tinkercad, build from scratch,
heatbed adhesion base = 0.5mm
each storey height = 4mm (0.4+3.0+0.6 optional bridge)
Extremely simple and easy for Cura Post Processing / Modify G-Code without Layer calculations

How to use

Below is an application example if you would like the perform a PLA temperature test, range from 220 to 180, with -10 as step down, go with 5 storeys high model (220/210/200/190/180)

  1. Cura click "Extensions" - > "Post-Processing" -> "Modify G-Code"

    • Add a script -> "TempFanTower"
    • Starting Temperature "220"
    • Temperature Increment "-10"
    • Change Layer = "20"
    • Change Layer Offset "2"
  2. Slicer settings
    • Quality -
      Layer Height "0.2"
      Initial Layer Height "0.3"
    • Walls -
      Wall Line Count "2"
      Fill Gaps Between Walls "Nowhere"
    • Top/Bottom -
      Top/Bottom Pattern "Concentric" (for Bridge test models)
    • Infill Density "0%"
    • Material -
      Printing Temperature "200"
    • Speed -
      Infill/Wall Speed "40mm/s" (Or your preferred speed)
      Initial Layer Speed "20mm/s" (Or your preferred speed)
    • Cooling -
      Minimum Layer Time "2.0s"
    • Do NOT Generate Support
    • BuildPlateAdhesion Type: None (Adhesion included, use addition adhesion if you still have trouble printing the tower)
