Posted · The height of the layers where the supports contact seems to be incorrect.

Hello, I’m a beginner, so I’m working on creating and printing simple models. I have a question regarding this issue. When I slice the model and preview it, everything looks fine. However, when I output it to G-code and open it in Cura, some of the layer heights are incorrect as shown. I tried printing it, but due to this issue, the model split into two parts. What's wrong?

    Hiya! It's easiest to tell if you can provide the Cura project file (.3mf, set it up then go to File > Save Project) as well as the model or gcode since that includes your printer and quality settings and such.

     

    However I'm going to hazard and guess and say... maybe Support > Support Interface Thickness isn't a multiple of your layer height?

    Or you might have Material > Support Interface Flow turned down?

    Without the project file, it's really hard to tell.

    Thank you so much for your support! 👀 The support interface is disabled, so it wasn't an issue with the support interface thickness. Instead, it seems that the problem was that the support Z distance wasn't a multiple of the layer height (it was 0.1mm versus a 0.3mm LH.)Screenshot2024-08-07at13_50_20.thumb.png.fd959b0409a0ba61b851dafe7e2a30fa.png

    However, the problem has likely been resolved. You saved me. Thank you very, very much. 🧠
