Sweep method

The sweep method is a convenient way to generate tool paths which follow the outer shape of an object, for example a curved manifold, lounge chair, or vase. The method allows to define where on the geometry the tool paths should start and end, and will interpolate in between. The interpolation will attempt to maintain a consistent layer height. The deposition rate will be adjusted to account for small variations in layer height. Find out more in the video below.
