Hi I am trying to print bellows with tpu, but I haven't been succeded. I have tried with vase mode but it ends up a mess. How can I put spiralize without creating structures outside? does anyone know the best technique to print bellows? Thank you

for now, I just added additional thickness on the walls and at least I am not able to break it by hand. Didn´t try yet to install it on the machine. Thank all for the inputs

Hi I am trying to replicate stainless steel plates that make lateral transport on a packaging machine . I notice clearly that printed directions on xy are much stronger than on z axes but the part has a geometry that goes into z axis, any advice on best material, best printing orientation, the best type of infill etc... I just tried to print it on UM Tough PLA, but I can brake with my hands so not even worth trying on the machine I have tried printing with flat side along the plate but then the hook with the slot gets also fragile, and in real there are tensions over there in attach a visual explanation of what I am trying to do thks Regards

Thank you, would any type of heating the water improve? Regards

Hi I have an Ultimaker 5s in my workplace and in spite of cura uploads 3rd party filaments, like Igus (Tribofilaments), it doesn´t store on the printer menu, so whenever there is a reel change or a print, it shows the warning: material conflict or something like that, well it ends up printing but my question is, shouldn´t the profile when it´s sent to the machine somehow be save as a new material....if cura recognizes and sets automatically the parameters to third party filaments, it would be logical that the printer would learn or at least store the filament as one more to choose, does this make sense? is it possible to force this to happen? thks regards

Hi Does anyone has experience with PVA removal station, does it make a difference? I am thinking of purchasing for the company I work for, but like to have some reviews on it, and didn´t find any on the web thank you

Thank you , very detailed Regards

Thank you for the explanation Regards

Dear All I would like to know if the settings on cura , are passed to ultimaker 2+ when printing, namely temperature, fan cooling speed etc... In know some are, like layer thickness, fill pattern, type of adhesion (brim raft, etc....) . Once the file is in printing mode if we go to tune and adjust the speed, or temperature, of fan cooling, does that overrides the slicer indications? Thks

Hi I am having some warp with colorfabb PLA PHA , um2+ , settings 195 º , speed 90%, bed 60 º , enclosured um, fan 33% any suggestions? Thks

Thanks for the inputs, unfortunately the green chamfer is out of question because the machine attachment, where the part is fixed fills that area (I know that is not possible to see clear on the photo because sugar is also dusty 🙂 ) - There is clearly a bending stress what the plate is moving 1 kg bags across the machine. Please check the original part, they produce it in 2 , the base and then the welded U shape plate. The base has a slot for the ushape to fit. Thank you for the inputs.

the parts are the ones that you see opened and are attached to the chain, like you identified, they are more open on the curved side of the conveyor and they stay together on the horizontal conveying, where they actually convey 1 kg bags The slot on the drawing is where the bolt to the chain happens. I will try splitting because making one part will always break on the z-axis , I will give a try with this design attached, any suggestion on material?
