Posted · Support structure fails or has really bad quality

Hello!

 

I have an ongoing issue with cura since I started to use it. (Around 4.3) 

So when I print anything with support the support structure is so bad in quality that it has missing lines, stringing badly, little plastic bits lie around the print and most of the time the support is the cause of my failed prints. I don't know what to do or how to improve the support quality. 

Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi, 

     

    What material and with what settings are you printing this supports?

    We used to have some issues with PVA (being to moist) we solved this with a filament box heating the spool up to 45°C and keep it there. we turn this box on about 2h before printing with PVA and it works like a charm.

    I've been having the same issues. I've been printing with Black tough PLA. I've tried changing a variety of things such as Top/bottom settings, the temperature and flow but I can't figure out what's the issue.  Any suggestions?image.thumb.jpeg.822bf890d1ff088a5cf3c64ee10384af.jpegimage.thumb.jpeg.76923872344fbfda15c54b6e8f2ce4da.jpeg

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        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.
