Hello,
To avoid the overhang voids in topology optimization the constraint Overhang prevention can be defined. The only option is the direction of "printing". I miss here the option of overhang angle. In attached picture is the topology result with areas where the inclination angle is over e.g. 45 degrees. In case of metal additive manufacturing all these areas must be supported with printing material and it increses the prise of manufacturing.
Is there any way to modify the facet body - inclination of face areas? Or how to get the optimized design with as less supporting as possible?
Any hint welcome.
