Enabling Fuzzy Skin

  1. Open Bambu Studio and load your 3D model.
  2. Go to the "Preview" page and click the "Others" tab.
  3. Scroll to the "Special mode" section and locate "Fuzzy Skin."
  4. Select a fuzzy skin option:
    • None: No fuzzy skin applied.
    • Contour: Applies fuzzy skin to outer walls only.
    • Contour and Holes: Applies fuzzy skin to outer walls and internal holes.
    • All Walls: Applies fuzzy skin to all walls (not recommended, as internal walls are hidden by infill).
  5. Adjust settings:
    • Fuzzy Skin Point Distance: Sets the average distance between fuzz points (0.1–0.8 mm recommended).
    • Fuzzy Skin Thickness: Sets how far the fuzz protrudes from the wall (0.1–0.3 mm recommended).
  6. Click "Slice Plate" to preview, then "Print" to start printing.

Using Modifiers to Limit Fuzzy Skin

  1. In Bambu Studio, load your model and go to the "Objects" tab.
  2. Add a modifier:
    • Click the "Add Modifier" button (cube icon) in the toolbar.
    • Choose a modifier shape (e.g., cube, cylinder) to cover the area where you want to prevent fuzzy skin.
  3. Position the modifier:
    • Drag the modifier to overlap the specific part of the model where you want to disable fuzzy skin.
    • Adjust the modifier’s size and position using the transform tools.
  4. Configure the modifier:
    • In the object list, select the modifier.
    • Go to the "Process" settings for the modifier.
    • Disable "Fuzzy Skin" for the modifier (set to "None").
  5. Slice the model:
    • Click "Slice Plate" to preview. The modifier’s overlapped area will exclude fuzzy skin, while other areas retain the fuzzy effect.
  6. Verify the result in the preview, then print.

Notes

  • Recommended settings: 0.3 mm for both point distance and thickness for a balanced texture.
  • Fuzzy skin increases print time and may affect tolerances for interlocking parts; adjust your model accordingly.
  • Test settings on a small sample to find your preferred fuzz combination before printing larger models.
