Slower speed when doing overhang and 2 solid infill layers?

Hi!

I´d like to be able to do two things in Cura and I can’t seem to find the settings for it. Perhaps some of you guys know how to do it?

  1. I’d like to set the last two layers to be solid infill. I think this was possible with k8200 in slicer?
  2. I’d like to automatically change print speed to like 20-30% when it’s printing overhang section. Is it possible? For some parts I can’t use support since the geometry doesn’t allow me to properly remove the support afterwards (tight fit with a bearing in a long hole afterwards).

If anyone know how to do this I’d really appreciate!

Ok ok thanks! Would a manual approach work? I’m thinking checking between which layers the overhang action is, adding g-code for slower speed and in the end returning to full speed?

The manual approach works but it’s a lot of work…

in S3D you could generate multiple processes, which can have different speed at a certain hight of the object.
Maybe that can be done with the original software as well (?)
I have no idea about the original one, since I quit that before even starting with it. :slight_smile:
Switched on to S3D on first print
