Hi I am unable to get more that 10-12mm/s speed for the outer layer in Cura. 
I have tried setting 60mm/s for outer layer but still I get only 10-12mm/s (please see screenshot)

What am I doing wrong?

    Thank for your reply.
    Yes. I used the spiralize function - but without that also it seems to be slow compared to set speed. 
    How to decide on  the minimum layer time?

    I wouldn't go lower than 3 seconds.  It takes about that long just to get down to 60C and PLA is like putty/clay/plasticine at that temperature.  at 50C PLA is finally hard like pastic.

      • 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.
