UM2+ XT-CF20 Gaps

Posted · UM2+ XT-CF20 Gaps

HI,

I have an UM2+ that is leaving gaps between the infill and the shells. It has been back to UM and they fixed the feeder that had something snapped inside. However this hasn't fixed the issue. I have tried changing the print temp, adjusting the short belts, adjusting the extrusion width, the overlap and everything you can tweak using Simplify3D and still can't get rid of the problem. I get the same issue using Cura as well. However if I print the exact same part with the exact same settings on my UM2 it prints perfectly. Couple of pics attached. Its more obvious using XT-CF20, but the gaps are there when using PLA.

Anyone got any ideas?

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        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.

      • Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released
        Cura now supports Method series printers!
         
        A year after the merger of Ultimaker and MakerBotQQ, we have unlocked the ability for users of our Method series printers to slice files using UltiMaker Cura. As of this release, users can find profiles for our Method and Method XL printers, as well as material profiles for ABS-R, ABS-CF, and RapidRinse. Meaning it’s now possible to use either Cura or the existing cloud-slicing software CloudPrint when printing with these printers or materials
