WANHAO DUPLICATOR 7, User Manual

Moving  Supports

After  a  manual  or  automatic  support  has  been  generated,  individual  supports  can  be  moved  

around  the  x:y  plane  the  same  way  models  can  be  moved.  Select  the  support  by  double  

clicking  on  it  to  select  it,  and  hold  down  the  ‘Shift’  key  on  your  keyboard  and  move  the  

mouse.  Supports  will  automatically  scale  vertically  under  the  model  they  support.

Angled  Supports

Supports  can  be  angled  inwards  towards  the  objects  they  support.  This  can  often  resolve  

clearance  issues  with  vertical  supports.  You  can  turn  a  vertical  support  into  an  angled  support  

by  selecting  it,  and  holding  the  ‘Ctrl’  key  and  clicking  on  the  model  you  want  to  support.

helps  you  manually  place  supports  under  un-­supported  downward  facing  areas  of  a  model.

Auto  Support  on  Grid

After  a  model  is  loaded  into  the  scene  and  selected,  you  can  automatically  generate  a  ‘bed  

of  nails’  support  for  the  model  by  selecting  .  You  can  specify  the  grid  spacing  and  the  size  of  

the  generated  supports.  If  you  wish  to  only  generate  supports  on  downward  facing  polygons,  

check  the  boxes  under  ‘support  general’  and  ‘generate  only  on  downward’

Adaptive  supports

You  can  add  supports  to  areas  in  the  model  that  are  unsupported.  There  are  2  algorithms  to  

help  you  accomplish  this.

                            allows  you  to  prepare  a  scene  to  be  printed  repeatedly  in  the  future,  

                            together  with      supports  and  positioning.

After  one  or  more  models  have  been  loaded  and  manipulated  on  the  build  platform,  the  

entire  scene  can  be  saved  as  an  STL  model  for  later  use.  Simply  click  on  the  ‘File-­>Save  Scene

STL  file.  Scenes  can  also  be  saved  to  CWS  files..  These  scene  files  can  be  used  to  create  a  

scene  with  supports,  slice  the  scene,  and  later  load  to  print  your  scene  without  the  need  for  

re-­slicing.
