Seamhandling/-hiding in Cura

Posted · Seamhandling/-hiding in Cura

Hallo UM and community,

 

I'm new both to 3d printing and Cura. Looking for a decent slicer my present test is with Cura.

Having tried KISSlicer and Prusaslicer so far, I like Cura but have a question I just can't answer myself:

The internet is full of questions and help on seamhiding and mostly the answer is: you can try but you won't really get rid of them (especially on round objects).

 

Now KISSlicer has a seamhandling using gap and depth that even for me as a total beginner solved the problem in my test prints (using a 50mm disc at 2mm height).

 

Why is it, that none of the big players doesn't include anything like that? I can't believe they don't know about this technique.

Is it because of copyright or something like that?

I think that many people would appreciate such a feature.

 

Cheers,

dtose

        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.
