Infill not being created

[akl200088 1]

When  I slice the object in Cura it does not show me any infill. I tried different settings, uninstalling and reinstalling,and different objects. It just will not work Please help me

Have you tried the "Preview" selection after slicing ?

 

When you are in the preview section ( post slicing ) there is a slider on the right side of the screen you can use to view the individual layers, which is where you will see the infill at various stages. 

 

If that's not the issue, we need more info to assist you, things like the version of Cura you are running / an upload of the model(s) you're having issue with / Cura settings you are using / screenshots or all of the  above.

I use stl files and I am using 4.7 Cura. Thank you for responding.

I found that those images were not that sharp. Please use these ones instead.

I think the pictures taken with the phone are actually slightly better.

So your walls - even in the main area are too thin for any infill.  the model itself has no large solid areas.  Am I being clear?

Ok, first thing that looks like a possible explanation - The model pictured here appears to have its  own internal  walls that are thin thus requiring no infill. If you are expecting infill to go into the three hollow cross sections inside the outer shell, you will need to edit the model. If you can upload the STL, we can confirm by slicing and analyzing it  ourselves. 

 

Edit : gods damn gr5, you are quick !!

Okay I was not sure how the walls are too thin, but I will just show the two files that I tried it with. Thank you for responding.

Main_Body.stl Test.stl

The TEST model is a hollow box so no infill is required to print it.  If it was a solid cube, there would be infill.

The Main Body consists of walls with large empty areas.  I had to scale it to 50% to fit my build plate.  With my wall thickness at .8 infill did show up in a couple of areas.

Oh so It has to be a solid object not hallow.

[Smithy 1,144]

Yes, if you want infill then you have to design it as a solid object.
