One pass / slim line for integrated support structure?

Posted · One pass / slim line for integrated support structure?

I printed a huge part with a bended bottom and testest different options for automatic generadet support in CURA.

Unfortunately none of the options worked for me. Took to much time, was much to strong and hardy removable...

So I decided to construct the support in the CAD model.

CURA now recognises walls and each support line is printed with a double line. I tried to adjust nozzle and wall sizes, but nothing helps.

To save more time (and material) it would be great, if there was a chance to make CURA print the support lines as thin as it prints it's own generated support.

Is there a way to achieve this?

Here is the part which I am printing with the constructed support:

        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
