I am trying to print a 3d scanned face of my neice. I have successfully printed a version of my son but I only used a single process. What I have done thus far is split the original scan down to her chin and beginning of her hair line in order for the print to have a flat section to lay on and not use support. As this is my first real trial at multiprocess printing I just dont now how to proceed.

What I would like to do is print all facial features at .1mm layer height with the top 3 or 4 layers printing solid. Everything interior to this would be at a .2 or .3 layer height and 30% infill. Ill try and upload a picture to show what Im starting with. Essentially I guess this would be an outer shell at .1 and interior of .3.

I don't think you need multiple processes for that. Can't you just go to the Infill tab and tell it to print the infill every 3 layers? Then if you layer height is 0.1mm, your infill will only be printed once every 3 layers (i.e. 0.3mm thick)

You are correct sir, I was just going through the first process when I realized it could all be done in 1 process. I scaled the model down and this print should finish in approximately 1h17m.

If anyone else is interested in doing something similar to this just ask, it is entirely possible that you already own 75% of the required hardware to complete a full body 3d scan.


Im sorry, I didnt realize that this was posted in the wrong forum location. Can someone move this topic to the appropriate location?
