General. Layer height is the thickness of each layer, and it is the step
along the vertical axis taken before extruding a new layer atop the previous
one. There are several factors that inuence how high each layer should
be:
• Desired resolution - Lower layer height should result in prints with
less noticeable ribs or bands, as each layer is smaller. Aesthetics plays
a role here, but also the type of model, for example, a mechanical part
may not need such a high resolution nish, whereas a presentation
piece may do so.
