One of the most common problems with 3D printers is supports. Supports are created when a layer is printed and there&rsquo;s no room to print below it so the printer has to pause and create some extra space before continuing on. This means that you need to spend time removing those supports manually &ndash; which is not only time-consuming but also very frustrating!<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseprofile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class=\"ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 eztoc-toggle-hide-by-default\"><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/how-to-3d-print-without-supports\/#How_to_3d_print_without_supports\">How to 3d print without supports?<\/a><ul class=\"ez-toc-list-level-4\"><li class=\"ez-toc-heading-level-4\"><ul class=\"ez-toc-list-level-4\"><li class=\"ez-toc-heading-level-4\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/how-to-3d-print-without-supports\/#3D_printers_differ_from_one_another_in_many_ways\">3D printers differ from one another in many ways.<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-4\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/how-to-3d-print-without-supports\/#So_what_do_you_need_to_do_in_order_to_get_rid_of_supports\">So what do you need to do in order to get rid of supports?<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/how-to-3d-print-without-supports\/#You_can_try_it_for_yourself_Go_ahead_and_download_this_file_Lets_check_printed_model\">You can try it for yourself!

However, there are still many problems that people run into when trying to print their 3D models. One of them is supports! Supports can ruin the overall look of any model if they&rsquo;re not thought out properly. And let&rsquo;s be honest, most people don&rsquo;t think about supports at all or just ignore them completely thinking that their slicer program will figure it out for them.<\/p>\n<p>And hey, you might get lucky every once in a while and your model may print without support but what happens when you want to do something more complex? What happens when you want to make hollow parts like spheres or columns?<\/p>\n<p>Well, then you&rsquo;ll need supports!

Each of these printers will have different settings and options that can be changed in order for you to get the best prints possible. And while we won&rsquo;t dive into each and every model and their respective settings (although we do plan on doing so in future articles) we will touch upon the main setting that you need to look out for when printing without support: your infill percentage!<\/p>\n<p>Let me explain; When printing any object with 3D Printing, there are always two separate types of layers: the model layer and the support layer. There are two distinct differences between the layers which affect the overall look of your print:<\/p>\n<p>Your infill, or in other words support density, will have a huge impact on how much support is needed for your print. A lower infill percentage indicates that there will be a larger gap between each printed line while a higher infill percentage means that each printed line will be closer together.<\/p>\n<p>The reasoning behind this is that the more lines you have during each layer, the more accurate it will be when it comes to printing overhangs (those parts of an object where no filament can touch the build plate).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2262\" src=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-without-supports.jpg\" alt=\"can you 3d print without supports\" width=\"399\" height=\"348\" srcset=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-without-supports.jpg 399w, https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-without-supports-300x262.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 399px) 100vw, 399px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2262 lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-without-supports.jpg.webp\" alt=\"can you 3d print without supports\" width=\"399\" height=\"348\" srcset=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-without-supports.jpg.webp 399w, https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-without-supports-300x262.jpg.webp 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 399px) 100vw, 399px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-without-supports.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-5\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">How To 3d Print Without Supports?

Increase your infill percentage and you&rsquo;re good to go! Fewer lines will equal less support and more surface area for your object! As always, there&rsquo;s a bit more to it than that.<\/p>\n<p>So what will happen if I print with an infill of 100%? Will my object have no supports or too much support? In the case of an infill percentage of 100%, as long as your model doesn&rsquo;t have any overhangs then you&rsquo;ll be fine without using any additional special settings. However, if you try to print anything that has an angle greater than 45 degrees then the layers will come out cloudy and you&rsquo;ll end up with a crumbled mess. So to avoid this from happening, we recommend that you do not print at such a high infill percentage.<\/p>\n<h3>You can try it for yourself! Go ahead and download this file. Let&rsquo;s check printed model.<\/h3>\n<p>Once you&rsquo;ve unzipped it, load up your slicer of choice and print the model with different infill percentages (5% to 100%) to see how each one affects the overall look of your print. You&rsquo;ll quickly notice that the higher the infill, the more pronounced each printed line will be on your model.<\/p>\n<p>Once you get a feel for how high an infill percentage is required for your print, simply adjust accordingly in order to get rid of supports without having too many lines or wasting too much filament! And don&rsquo;t forget to experiment by printing overhangs at lower infill percentages than the rest so that you can get a feel for how high you can go before getting a crumbled mess.<\/p>\n<p>Remember that no matter what infill percentage you use, a certain overhang will always result in a crumbled mess. Experiment to find out what works best for your printer and filament blend. Oh and just to note, we printed the model used in this article with an infill of 10% on our CR-10 3D Printer at 70mm\/s print speed, 0.1mm layer height, 0.4mm nozzle diameter (with 1.75mm filament), and 2 shells (top\/bottom).<\/p>\n<p>Just don&rsquo;t forget that if your slicer program has the ability to adjust its supports specifically, make sure you disable all supports whatsoever!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2261\" src=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-a-sphere-without-support.jpg\" alt=\"can you 3d print a sphere without support\" width=\"422\" height=\"376\" srcset=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-a-sphere-without-support.jpg 422w, https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-a-sphere-without-support-300x267.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 422px) 100vw, 422px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2261 lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-a-sphere-without-support.jpg.webp\" alt=\"can you 3d print a sphere without support\" width=\"422\" height=\"376\" srcset=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-a-sphere-without-support.jpg.webp 422w, https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-a-sphere-without-support-300x267.jpg.webp 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 422px) 100vw, 422px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/printerpreneur.com\/3d\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/can-you-3d-print-a-sphere-without-support.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-6\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">How To 3d Print Without Supports?<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_3D_print_support_too_strong\"><\/span>Is 3D print support too strong?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The support in 3D printing is a double-edged sword.

Dr. Bernhard Hesse has been developing different 3D printed surgical solutions since 2009 when he founded his company BH Dental Solutions.
