This blog will explore all the FFF postprocessor properties available in Fusion, so that you can get the best out of your print!
When working with Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) printers in Autodesk Fusion, postprocessors are necessary for converting your model and print settings into a print file that can then be sent to your printer. Postprocessor properties are settings contained within each post that allow users extra control to optimize for specific printer models, materials, and required print outcomes.
Here is a list of postprocessor properties that are available in all FFF posts:
We support over 250 FFF printers alone in Fusion and this requires almost 30 separate postprocessors! Below is a list of all these FFF post processors that are currently supported in Fusion, along with their respective post properties.
Finally, there are also a section named “Built-in” in the processor properties dialog. These are default properties available with all posts, and aren’t contained within the posts themselves. The arc interpolation settings are used only when G2/G3 is enabled in FFF and this video shows how to enable them. The other settings are not useful for FFF printers and can simply be ignored.
Note, there is a handy “Restore to post defaults” option that lets you reset the postprocessor properties to their default values.
By understanding and adjusting these settings, you can optimize print quality, reduce material waste, and enhance the overall efficiency of your printing process.
