What is overhang in 3D printing?
An overhang is a sloped surface of the model that is unsupported from below. At angles up to 45° any printer handles it without supports.
Angles and result
- 0-30° - perfect quality
- 30-45° - very good
- 45-60° - detail degradation
- 60-80° - need support
How to improve
Better cooling, slower speed, overhang detection in slicer.
