Software Cura 4.0.0 Beta Errors

Posted · Software Cura 4.0.0 Beta Errors

I have tried several software versions of Cura 3.5.1; 3.6 and 4.0.0 Beta and facing one BIG (to my mind) issue.

While printing solid body and surface together as one object it not allowing me to combine both surface modes of printing.

I am using the option under Special Modes/Print Sequence/All at Once and Surface Mode/Both.

This option not working for all my printings while combining both solid body and surface while slicing it only allows me to print part of the drawing/printing.

If developers/users could help with advice that would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you in advance,.

    I have used surface mode in two of the modes but never in "both".  Could you please provide a screen shot in slice view of the problem?  You might need to show the model in normal view as well.

    Here are the screenshots of the case (2 examples). The essence - if the object consists of the solid forms and surfaces AND the surface ends higher, the slicer slices the surface only to the level of the solid body top.

     

    The second problem is with the sizes - I have TEVO Tornado printer with working area 300 x 300 x 400 mm. I want to print few big (wide) details of 285 x 20 x 20 mm. While choosing the separate printing (not printing at the same time), the program says it is impossible to slice the object due to object not meeting the printer size.

     

     

    And the last - as the English is not my native language, is there any chance to get in touch with the Cura slicer developer in Russian language to provide advice regarding functionality of the program?

    Nope, sorry. We don't have any developers that speak Russian. Your options are Chinese, Dutch, Spanish and English (and a bit of German).

    I continue to work (still looking for some reply and/or solution to the problem mentioned) and faced few more issues on the same  software versions of Cura 3.5.1; 3.6 and 4.0.0 Beta.

     

    I want to print few similar items and place them nearby, choose the print sequense as "One at a time", but none of the software versions sliced the objects. I consider option to print "One at a time" to be very important as the technical failures may appear during the work process (like electricity failure). "One at a time" will ensure those items already finished would not be damaged.

     

    The other case is with the infill failure - pictures attached shows the original object and the result. I can't find the way to slice the object without the "mesh" infill.

    Just to make sure - I consider the Cura program to have big potential and would love the developers to make it even better. This is the reason I try to deliver the issues I faced - I believe the developer might be interested. Could you advice whether my work (making these posts with the issues) is not meaningless for the Cura team?

      • UltiMaker Cura 5.3 stable released
        In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!

      • Here it is. The new UltiMaker S7
        The UltiMaker S7 is built on the success of the UltiMaker S5 and its design decisions were heavily based on feedback from customers.
         
         
        So what’s new?
        The obvious change is the S7’s height. It now includes an integrated Air Manager. This filters the exhaust air of every print and also improves build temperature stability. To further enclose the build chamber the S7 only has one magnetically latched door.
         
        The build stack has also been completely redesigned. A PEI-coated flexible steel build plate makes a big difference to productivity. Not only do you not need tools to pop a printed part off. But we also don’t recommend using or adhesion structures for UltiMaker materials (except PC, because...it’s PC). Along with that, 4 pins and 25 magnets make it easy to replace the flex plate perfectly – even with one hand.
         
        The re-engineered print head has an inductive sensor which reduces noise when probing the build plate. This effectively makes it much harder to not achieve a perfect first layer, improving overall print success. We also reversed the front fan direction (fewer plastic hairs, less maintenance), made the print core door magnets stronger, and add a sensor that helps avoid flooding.
         

         
        The UltiMaker S7 also includes quality of life improvements:
        Reliable bed tilt compensation (no more thumbscrews) 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi A 1080p camera (mounted higher for a better view) Compatibility with 280+ Marketplace materials Compatibility with S5 project files (no reslicing needed) And a whole lot more  
        Curious to see the S7 in action?
        We’re hosting a free tech demo on February 7.
        It will be live and you can ask any questions to our CTO, Miguel Calvo.

      • UltiMaker Cura Alpha 🎄 Tree Support Spotlight 🎄
        Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
         
        We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
