In the fill pattern function module, you can set the top pattern, bottom pattern, and internal solid fill pattern. And it is possible to separately set the number of layers for the top/bottom shell.
The filling sequence during the model printing process is: bottom - internal solid filling - sparse filling - internal solid filling - top.
¶ Sparse fill type
¶ Concentric
Creating concentric circles inside sparse patterns, if printed with transparent materials, will provide a beautiful visual effect. Meanwhile, concentric filling will save printing time and consumables consumption.
¶ Rectilinear
One of the basic filling patterns. The angle between adjacent filling lines is 90 degrees. Rectilinear filling can increase the strength of the model.
¶ Grid
The simplest and fastest type of fill pattern. However, the accumulation of materials during grid printing can lead to printing failure.
¶ Line
Similar to Rectilinear filling, but line filling is not parallel or perpendicular to each other.
¶ Cube
Create a cube with downward facing corners inside the model for filling, which provides a lot of air for the model to float on the water surface and insulate it.
¶ Triangle
The filling method of triangles is similar to that of grids.
¶ Tri-hexagon
The Tri-hexagon is composed of multiple hexagons combined with triangles. Compared to grid filling, printing hexagons and triangles in the same layer reduces crossing.
¶ Gyroid
Gyroid can provide good support for models and have no intersecting parts in the same layer, resulting in faster printing speed.

¶ Honeycomb
The combination of hexagons has good mechanical resistance and optimal paths without crossing, but consumes 25% more than other fillers.
¶ More
Due to the variety of filling patterns, we will not list them one by one here. The unexplored fill patterns are explored by the user themselves.
¶ Top/bottom shell
The top/bottom filling patterns are similar to sparse filling patterns, including concentric, straight, monotonic, monotonic, straight line arrangement, Hilbert curve, Archimedean spiral, and octagonal spiral.
You can choose the corresponding pattern, set the number of layers and thickness of the shell according to your needs.
