I’ve been having issues with my Ultimaker 3, as shows in the pictures, some layers print inconsistently and there is a gap in between some of the layers. I’ve attached the settings. 

 

NOTE: The speed was actually 20 mm/s for both Infil and Print

 

i also noticed the infill has gaps in between layers as wel. Any ideas on what might be wrong or how to fix this?

    Your settings do not seem to reflect the model shown. Apart from a setting of 70mm/s when you say 20mm/s, the base of the boat has no bottom but your settings say top/bottom thickness 2mm - all very strange. Quite possibly problem is due to under-extrusion but difficult to say as you have not quoted extruder temp. Otherwsie is could be a problem with your feed system/filament - maybe the filament is poor quality with uneven thickness which is causing it to stick inside the Bowden tube

      • 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.

      • Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released

        Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released

        ArunC posted a topic in UltiMaker Cura,

        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
