Wow that sucks. Maybe you just have a really big STL file? Too many triangles? How big is the file in bytes or in triangles?
You can reduce the number of triangles using some easy-to-use and free software (e.g. meshlab). I like to keep it under 100,000 triangles (typically 6MB) but cura can usually handle a million just fine. I've seen plenty of STL files with 100 million triangles which is silly.
In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
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
