[New Cura NOT giving 100% fill density.]

The old cura had a feature called "packing density" which was supposed to be I believe a value less than 1 for ABS. The new cura has the same feature but it is inverse and called "flow" I think. You need to take the packing density invert it and store that in flow. For example if packing density was .95 then flow should be approximately 1.05 (more accurately 1/0.95).

 

Sorry for the late reply, but I have tried altering the "flow" on the new Cura, but the issue still remains.

I have been using the old version of Cura because of this problem.

What I have noticed is not so much an issue with the fill of the object, but rather an issue with the fill not touching the outer wall, therefore leaving the wall so brittle it simply peals of like a sheet.

 

[New Cura NOT giving 100% fill density.]

My latest print using the new Cura 13.06.5 has be significantly weaker than the older version i was running.

Both the same print, same ABS, same temp, with the same 100% fill density,

and yet the new print is far far weaker in comparison to the old.

Ive noticed that the new version does not do a true 100% fill as the old version of Cura did, and that the lines do not touch (forming a solid object) but instead do more of a 80% fill.

Now all my prints are useless for the task required.

Any reason for this????

 

[Ultimaker owners from Australia?]

Hello guys, I want to see if the ultimaker is capable of printing out a certain stl file.

Im located in NZ and will reimburse the person for the print and postage. Anyone keen to do this?

 

Im in NZ also, if you like, you could email me the stl file and i can certainly see if it will be a posable print?

 

[Any Ultimakers in New Zealand?]

Anyone out there in Aotearoa that uses an Ultimaker?

 

[Print issue with heated bed]

I have just installed a heated bed on my UM and just need to know how you control yours? do you do control the temp via an Ulticontroler? if so, what firmware are you running? (sorry to jump in on your topic but your heated bed looks like the same setup as mine).
