About the Part This is a remix of the very popular Smart Compact Temperature tower. We would like to thank gaaZolee for the inspiration for this model. This is also a modified version of the Popular OrcaSlicer temperature tower. Side note… we tested most of the parts on the internet to find the best design for an all-in-one temperature tower. This one stood out for many reasons, which is why we choose it as our starting point for research. After printing literally thousands of these parts in different filaments and printers, we made some revisions to improve the part.

Print Stats

• Filament Usage: 3g (1 meter)
• Print Time: 10-30 minutes

How to Use it

1. Download the part and open in slicer
2. Set change at height gcode for each level

• 0.45mm for start of Level 1
• 8.65mm for start of Level 2
• 16.65mm for start of Level 3
• 24.65mm for start of Level 4

3. Printed with the following settings

• Top/Bottom Walls: 2
• Perimeters: 2
• Infill: 0%
• Supports: No supports

4. Example gcode (depends on slicer and gcode flavor). Below are gcode commands for standard marlin, found here.

• M104 S220; Sets print temperature to 220C (no wait)
• M109 S220; Sets print temperature to 220C (will wait)
• M106 S153; Sets part cooling fan PWM value to 153 out of 255
• M221 S98: Sets flow rate to 98%

5. Slice and Print

• Tip: Use a piece of card board or plastic with mounting putty for hanging posters to keep track of prints easily 🙂

Where it came from This part is used in inTinker All-in-one AI calibration pipeline. We have printed 1000s of data points to train an AI how to 3D Print high quality parts. The pipeline is designed to optimize the visual quality all of the following features at the same time, dynamically:

• Stringing
• Surface Quality
• Small Feature Quality
• Bridging
• Overhangs

The calibration does this by using a .3mf file provided by the user to create the temperature tower automatically with settings from the Generator in the the pipeline. The Generator optimizes the following print settings all at the same time to optimize the metrics listed above:

• Print Temperature
• Retraction Distance
• Retraction Speed
• Flow Rate
• Part Cooling Fan %
