Video: Getting the Most from Cura


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited) · Video: Getting the Most from Cura

Maybe this video can help the new comers to use Cura, it's interesting mainly for people who have never used Cura but can also be useful to more "expert" users

 

 

Getting the Most from Cura: Presented by Steve Cox

Ultimaker's Open-Source software Cura is an amazing free slicer for your 3D models. 'Quick print' is great when you're doing your first prints but delving into the software in more detail can save you from waste material on failed prints and over-use of infill, wasting time using supports and failed prints generally.

Steve's Webinar is an informative look into Cura and how you can use it to save time and money.

        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.
