QIDI Slicer V1.1.4

QIDISlicer logo

This is version 1.1.4, which has been improved and fixed based on user feedback and experience, and has added some new features.

New

• Add slow down layers

Starting from this version, parameter "slowdownlayers" has been added.This is vital for ABS not to Warp.In some models printed with ABS filament, a slow initial layer speed can improve the curling of the model.Thanks for OrcaSlicer. slow1 slow2

• Add elefant foot compensation layers

Starting from this version, parameter "elefantfootcompensationlayers" has been added, which will affect multiple layers.As the number of layers increases, the compensation amount decreases smoothly. According to our test results, it has improved the printing of ABS filament and reduced the error of objects in height. Thanks for OrcaSlicer. ele1 ele2 111 222

• Add precise z height

In previous versions, a cube of 20.1mmX20.1mmX20.1mm was sliced using a 0.2mm layer height, resulting in a height multiple of 20mm.if "precisezheight" is enabled, we will adaptively adjust the height of the last 5 layers to achieve precise height. Thanks for BambuStudio. z1 z2

• Add max bridge length

Generating equidistant tree shaped supports under the bridge reduces the contact area of the supports and reduces material waste.Thanks Bambulab for this idea. maxbridge1 maxbridge2

• Add ironing pattern "Concentric"

In order to meet the needs of more users, starting from this version, we have added an ironing pattern. In previous versions, the ironing pattern was defaulted to rectilinear. Now we can choose "Rectilinear" or "Concentric".Thank you for the ideas provided by BambuStudio. iron

• Add top and bottom infill flow ratio

Used to control the extrusion flow rate of the top and bottom surfaces.Thanks for OrcaSlicer. flow

• Add infill pattern "Cross Hatch"

BambuStudio developed a new infill pattern called CrossHatch. As the name suggests, it primarily fills parts with lines, while periodically altering the direction of the lines through some transition layers. It dramatically improves strength compared to line and concentric infill, while achieving high speed and silent printing in most layers.We have decided to introduce this modification infill1 NEWPATT

• Add only one wall first layer

Add only one wall function for the first layer.Thanks for BambuStudio. one first2

Improvements

• Optimized xy compensation.

XY compensation will retain more detailed textures and improve the situation where model details are lost.

• Optimized 3DHoneyComb infill for high-speed printing.

The current 3D Honeycomb infill pattern includes many bridges, making it less than ideal for high-speed printing and resulting in reduced strength. However, the improved 3D Honeycomb significantly reduces bridging, providing better strength and print quality. It offers similar strength to Gyroid infill but prints faster, thanks to requiring fewer direction changes. old3d new3d

• Optimized solid filling and improved fit of filling overlap rate.

Bug Fix

• Fixed first layer infill areas.
• Fixed classic's top gap infill.
• Fixed top surface detection, incorrectly anchoring the top surface as a bridge connection.
• Fixed the issue of tool exceeding the exclusion zone detection in some models.

Misc

• Change the default value of "supportmaterialstyle" to "Snug".
• Change the default value of "filamentmaxvolumetric_speed" to 12.
