Layer Stacker

Repeat a Path across N layers at a constant layer height, emitting one extrusion segment per layer. Supports per-layer rotation, XY scale interpolation, and seam-shift rotation so every lap's seam lands in a different place.

Sockets

path (in)
Path. Required.
layers (in)
Int. Optional layer-count override.
layerHeight (in)
Float. Optional layer-height override.
toolpath (out)
Toolpath — N stacked extrusion segments at increasing Z.

Parameters

Layers
Total number of layers. Default: 20.
Layer H (mm)
Constant layer height. Default: 0.2.
Z Start (mm)
Z of the first layer. Default: 0.2.
Rot/Layer (°)
Rotation applied per layer around the profile centroid. Default: 0. Use something like 15–45° for a twisted vase.
Start Scale / End Scale
Per-layer XY scale factor, linearly interpolated across the stack. Defaults: 1 and 1 (constant).
Seam Shift
Number of vertices the seam is shifted each layer. Default: 0 (no shift). >0 hides stacked seams.
