· Help why does my print look like this
Hello 3d fails!
Those little dots are what the community likes to call “zits”. They are caused when the extruder “frequently starts and stops” while a print is taking place.
The simplest ways to fix the problem are by enabling coasting, and/or adding your retraction settings in the slicer. A good place to start with your retraction distance is 5mm. If there are still some dots, increase the distance by 0.5-1mm increments, if stringing is prevalent, go ahead by decreasing it with 0.5-1mm increments.
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.
