8 Floor Retraction Test Towers

Retraction Test Towers with different distance between the towers.

I usually start with retraction distance test. Then I use the setting/retraction distance (number of floor plan) that has the least ammount of stringing (after reviewing the print). After that I do the retraction speed test.


Specifications
Base/Foot height: 1,5mm
Floor height: 5mm
Number of floor plans: 8
Distances between towers (5 different models): 10 - 50mm (center-to-center)




I use Creality Slicer/Cura Slicer to setup the retraction test (se pictures).

Setup Retraction Distance Test with Creality Ender 3 V2, 0.4mm nozzle and print quality 0.2;
Command: Distance
Starting value: 1
Value Increment: 1
Change Layer: 28
Change Layer offset: 7

(This will print the first floor plan with 1mm retraction distance, and lastly 8mm retraction distance for the last floor).
