Cura is slicing my benchy in a way that it prints zits on the curves towards the hull. However Prusa slices it just fine.

Posted · Cura is slicing my benchy in a way that it prints zits on the curves towards the hull. However Prusa slices it just fine.

Printer: Artillery Sidewinder X2

Running Klipper

Linear rails on the Y axis

Everything else is stock, printed with blue PETG

 

 

The photo below shows two photos of benchy's that I've printed right after I did input shaping via ADXL345 (using Klipper).

The benchy on the far left is sliced via Prusa, but the others with the zits are all sliced via Cura... And it's showing the zits on both sides, ONLY on the curves near the hull... From the front the hull actually looks decent, it's only leading up to the hull...

 

Has anyone seen this before? It's only Cura that's causing this. I'm currently printing one oriented 90 degrees, and another slowed down, since this print was a test to see if I can print at 3500mm/s since the input shaper says I can do 5000mm/s but I figured I'd go a bit slower, but they are both printed at 100mm/s... Which I will normally print slower but this is a test of how fast I can get it to go.

 

So I'll do another test as well at a lower speed.

 

But does anyone have any idea as to why Cura could be causing this?

 

Thanks!

 

EDIT: Printing at 90 degrees didn't help, same zits showing up... Only in Cura sliced Benchy... Going to try printing slower, and maybe a different model...

    Reading over on Github, it appears that there were problems between Klipper and Cura.

    The Mesh Fixes settings "Enable Fluid Motion" (and the three child settings below it) appear to be in response to that.  Have you tried tweaking those?
