Minimize travel moves

Large scale additive manufacturing generally benefits from minimizing the number of travel moves. This is particularly important for pellet extrusion and concrete extrusion where start and stops moves can cause defects in the print, such as stringing and oozing.

In the video below, we show how to minimize travel moves in AdaOne by merging tool paths belonging to the shell of the part into a single continuous path. This is done by using the Shell print order setting in the Shell card.
