when printing one-at-a-time Cura claims objects don't fit!

Posted (edited) · when printing one-at-a-time Cura claims objects don't fit!

why is it Cura refuses to print objects above a certain height in one-at-a-time mode, even when it is clear there would be no collision between print head or gantry and the objects already printed?

 

eg imagen your printing two cylinders each with a radius of 40mm and a height of 120mm.  The first cylinder is positioned at the front right corner of the build plate, the second cylinder is in the back left corner.  Obviously there would be no issue of coalitions and yet a warning message appears declaring there is nothing to slice because "none of the models fit".

 

using cura 3.2.1

    you can look in the 'machine settings' what the gantry height of your printer (?) is.

    When this is smaller then 120 mm, Cura assumes the gantry is going to hit something.

      • 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
