Combing leaving blobs on outside walls

Posted · Combing leaving blobs on outside walls

hi @smartavionics,

 

I am using your new 'not in skin' combing but getting blobs on the outside of the wall at these points (shown below), as mentioned a while back (and the reason i asked you to keep 'only in infil') Cura treats walls as skin rather than just the top and bottom layers and therefore doesn't retract in the walls, hence the material from the non-retract travel is getting deposited in the wall which is often too thin to hide it. In the screen shot below there is a strange 'kick' in the travel at which point the blob appears. Any ideas ?. could the travel be made to not perform this kick, or stick more to the inside of the wall ? i can switch back to 'within infil' and will get retracts in the walls which fixes the problem, but think you mentioned that Cura has issues deciding where infil is and hence the 'only in infil' can sometimes result in travls without retract actually in the top or bottom layers (skin) ?

 

Many thanks !

      • 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.
