  1. Weil der Author dieses Themas keine Rückmeldung gegeben hat, möchte ich das hier ergänzen: Cura 4.7.1 läuft einwandfrei unter MacOS 10.15.7. Keine Probleme beim Slicen.

    Möglicherweise wird der erste Start erschwert, dann muss man entweder direkt nach dem Versuch in Einstellungen->Sicherheit gehen und dann das Öffnen freigeben, oder man folgt dieser Beschreibung.

    @Brulti - I'm a moderator so I don't know what it's like for regular users.  I have to add the tag "solved" but *also* I have to make it a "prefix tag" so it shows up in the title in an obvious way both here and in the listing of all topics.  Do you have the ability to do this on your own topics (prefix)?

    Thanks for the marking. As a normal user I can add the solved tag, but there are no further possibilieties to configure it or define it as prefix.

  3. I want to print a cylinder (well, actually it is a heart, but a cylinder shows the same issue) with transparent material.

    I have an Ultimaker2 with a 0.4mm nozzle and have Cura 3.2.1 and the older version Cura 15.04.6 installed

     

    The wall thickness of the model is 1.6 mm

    I would like to have 4 parallel layers in horizontal direction, i.e. 4 concentric circles. However, I get always some internal linear patterns which causes a twofold problem: First the cylinder looks uneven, the transparency is very different depending from what side I look. Second the material (HDGlass from FormFutura doesn't like retraction and moving the print head around the stringing is not the big problem, but the adhesion is sometimes bad after a move. Without retraction the look is sometimes very bad, because material is collected at the nozzle and deposited on the print at arbitrary positions.

    I have experimented with wall thickness, I have set it to 0.8 which I think should do the job, I have set it to 1.2 and 1.6.

    In a different approach I have set the Wall Line Count to 2 and 3, which both show the same layer preview as shown in the attached image. At a Wall Line Count of 4 the layer preview is empty.

    Until recently I have worked only with the old cura version, Cura 3.2.1 is pretty new for me.

    Any idea how to get 4 parallel wall lines?

    • I removed the four screws which hold the Z axis' helix bearing on the printing plate. It makes acces and verifying the vertical movement very easy.
    • To be able to access the last screws holding the circuit board remove the vertical cover in the left corner of the printing cabin.
    • To unlock a sticky rod I created a "tool" made from a 10 mm nut in which I drilled a 12mm hole. I sawed it in two pieces and sanded the sawing edge:

      With the tool and a pair of pliers the rod can be grabbed tight and yet without damaging it.
