a As infill percent increases, retractor strength increases with a spike at 40%. b As perimeter number increases, retractor strength increases. c As retractor width increases, retractor strength increases up to 0.75 in. d Retractor thickness is most optimal at 0.2 in. at 20% infill. e Increasing retractor thickness increases retractor strength at 100% infill
