Hey guys, 

 

I've tried to print a lid for a box. But Cura is always filling out the empty space under the lid with infill. In Addition Cura sets a bottom layer.

All the boxes under Mesh-fixing are not enabled (I've read these tipps in another forum). 

Furthermore the .stl-file has no errors according to the mesh-fixer Add-on in Cura and Meshmixer.

 

I hope that you can help me. 

The .stl-file and the .3mf file are attached.

 

Best regards

 

Maik

    Go down to the Experimental settings and turn off "Make Overhangs Printable".

    If it isn't visible then select "Custom" settings and then, to the right of the Settings Search box is an icon with three lines on it.  Click on it and set the visibility to "All".

        This update is for...

        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.
