I need help tuning 3MF print settings to remove a seam from FDM printed parts. The seams creates unwanted ridges and bumps on the surface, affecting the function. I have attached a photo. The part on the left was printed using an X2D (PETG) via Bambu Studio with seams aligned. The part on the right was printed with random seams. Both of these prints are unacceptable in my application due to the presence of these seams and bumps. Requirements: - Experience with FDM printing, specifically using PETG filament - Proficiency in 3MF file settings (Bambu Studio) and optimization - Ability to demonstrate that the 3mf project file has been adjusted to eliminate the seams and bumps by actually printing a demonstration part. -The working 3mf file will be returned to customer for use in Bambu Studio. Ideal Skills and Experience: - Strong background in 3D printing and troubleshooting - Knowledge of PETG behavior and printing nuances - Attention to detail for high-quality finishes

HI, I can optimize your PETG print for a clean, seamless finish with improved wall quality, layer adhesion, seam placement, retraction, cooling, temperature, flow, and acceleration settings. I can tune the model and slicer profile specifically for your printer and nozzle while balancing surface quality, strength, and print time. 1️⃣ Which printer, nozzle size, and PETG filament are you using? 2️⃣ What slicer and current settings/profile are you working with? 3️⃣ Is the priority a completely hidden seam, best surface finish, or maximum print strength?

Hi there! My name is Najma, and I'm an experienced freelance 3D Designer who's got quite the knack for troubleshooting problematic prints. Your project regarding the elimination of seams and bumps on PETG printed parts is right up my alley. With two years of experience under my belt, I've had the opportunity to work immensely with various filament types and have a deep understanding of nuances specific to PETG filaments. I'm well-versed in optimizing 3MF files, with expertise in Bambu Studio software - exactly what you're looking for! To reassure you about effective optimization, I'm more than ready to print a demonstration part after adjusting the 3MF file accordingly. On top of that, you can expect precise and high-quality work from me as I'm known to pay extreme attention to detail. Moreover, I understand the importance of functionality in 3D printed parts, which is why I put strong emphasis on their accuracy and quality during the design process using software like Blender, ZBrush, and SolidWorks. Additionally, I am equally proficient in numerous slicing software like Cura, PrusaSlicer, Simplify3D along with Bambu itself coupled with extensive skills for fixing and optimizing models for seamless printing. It's paramount for me to deliver projects that exceed expectations; with me on board, consider your PETG prints streamlined to perfection!

Hi, i reviewed your photo closely. On the left, the aligned seam is creating a clear vertical ridge, while on the right the random seam is distributing the same start and stop bumps around the circumference. So I would focus on fixing the extrusion behavior at the layer transition, not simply moving the seam. I can tune your existing Bambu Studio 3MF specifically for the X2D and PETG, including seam settings, flow, retraction, wipe, temperature, wall speed, and pressure-related parameters where needed. Most importantly, I understand that you do not just want suggested settings. I will test the adjusted 3MF with an actual PETG print, compare the surface result, refine it if necessary, and return the working Bambu Studio 3MF with all final settings saved. Send me your current 3MF file, PETG brand, nozzle size, and layer height. I can work directly from your existing setup and focus specifically on getting that seam area as smooth and functionally clean as possible.

Seams in FDM prints can ruin functionality and aesthetics. Those ridges and bumps you mentioned can lead to fit issues or even part failure. If the seams aren't managed, it could cost you time and materials in reprints. I'd start with adjusting the 3MF settings to fine-tune the seam placement. Aligning the seams properly can make a big difference. I'll also test print a demonstration part to show you precisely how the adjustments eliminate those unwanted features. It’s a hands-on approach that ensures the results you need. I’ve tackled similar issues with PETG before, focusing on detail and quality. Revisions are part of my process, ensuring the final 3MF file meets your standards. What’s your timeline for this project? Do you have specific parameters for the demonstration print?
