Description

PDF

I wanted a temperature tower that was fast as most of the models would take several hours. Found this model by spiga76, changed the PLA model a bit to go from 230-190 instead of 240-200 and added labels for filament types.

 

Printing

For easier configuration, we can apply G-code to "Printer Settings" > “Custom G-code” > “Before layer change G-code” (Using PrusaSlicer).

Temperature preview

Starting version 2.4 (PrusaSlicer), there is a temperature preview of the model, this helps verify the correct configuration of the test model.
