Test Plate B.3mf (433.5 KB)

I’m having an issue and I cannot figure out a solution, so I’m really hoping someone here can help me out.

The attached file has a simplified version of a plate that I am working on.

There are two objects: Test Plate Base and Test Plate B.
Test Plate B sits on top of Test Plate Base.

What I want, is for Test Plate Base to be printed cleanly and then Test Plate B to be printed on top of it.

However, when I slice the file, starting with layer 11, it leaves the top layer where the B goes as infill instead of a top layer. Therefore the plate does not have as clean of a top surface as possible.

What I want, is for the top surface to be complete, not taking into account the B until the B begins to print at layer 16.

This is a little difficult to describe without seeing how the slicer is printing the file by opening it and looking at the layers.

So PLEASE HELP! And if you have any questions or need clarification as to what I mean, please ask away!!

Thanks so much in advance. I’ve spent a lot of time with this trying to figure out a solution and I’m at my wits end!

Its not exactly what you are chasing but have you tried increasing the infill density of the infill pattern ?

Thanks for the reply BoBL. Unfortunately that’s not going to fix the problem. I want the layer right before the letter begins to print, to be a solid concentric top surface pattern. That would make the plate as clean as possible before the letter begins to print.

Even with a 100% infill, it will still not print a clean concentric top surface (note that I have the concentric top surface set to the plate object and not the letter). It will still outline the letter.

I have found a solution that appears to be working though. I bumped the letter object up by .1mm. It’s now giving me the clean concentric top surface I’m looking for on the plate before printing the letter and the letter is adhering well, so all is good for now!
