Hi,

I'm trying to print an Ultimaker extruder gear (https://www.youmagine.com/designs/ultimaker-extruder-gear-upgrade-w-bigger-hex-nut-hole) with Cura 2.3 and I don't really understand why Cura makes so strange movements:

It has no sense at all: more time and more damaged parts:

Compare with Simplify3D:

Maybe I have some wrong settings in Cura or it's just a bug?

Thank you in advance!

    Thank you for the answer!  

    I used 20% infill ...

    But if you say 99%, ok let's try:

    hm ... but what is interesting, if I use 3 Wall Line Count it works correctly, because in this case no infill is needed at all ...

    Looks like you'd found a solution. But it also looks like a bug.

    I tried various things in Cura 2.3 and could not get ride of that unnecessary traveling issue.

    However, Cura 15,x seems to handle it just fine.

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        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.
