Posted · Ironing leads to strange travel paths

Hello,

I really love the new ironing feature. However, I try to avoid travel paths that are outside of my model.

But when I activate ironing, cura creates many travel paths that seem to be unneccessary. In my understanding ironing should only be applied to flat sufaces and should not influence the middle part of my sample 3D model.

    Hi, if you use the layer slider and go down to one of those regions that the travel is between, does it show a little bit of skin? I'm guessing that it does and what's happening is that the ironing process is travelling between the little skin areas that are to be ironed and it's using a direct path for the travel. Don't know, just guessing, really.

      • 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.
