Re: Complex infill managment needed for large prints!

Well why not make simplify3d do that for us? Both infill and support material needs a big overhaul, its just wasted material that could be generated much more efficent. For a $140 program thats not asking too much I think... I've printed several intricate models that required lots of internal infill...

Re: Simplify3D & Smoothie stalled print

It could be "ground loop". I had a really weird similar problem with my smoothie randomly stopping. You need to have the printer on the same outlet/power strip as your computer controlling the board.

Re: Complex infill managment needed for large prints!

It seems like this might help support the roof, but it does nothing to make the sides of your part stronger. Personally, I would rather have my entire part be strong in all directions than some type of directional support. Also, infill definitely won't support large overhangs like that very well si...

Re: Complex infill managment needed for large prints!

Any more input on this from anyone? It really would be a great feature to add, can't be that hard to implement.

Complex infill managment needed for large prints!

This software really needs an option to have the infill intelligently form only in areas it is required. This would save so much time and material on really large prints. I attached an image to show exactly what I mean. The infill should be able to slowly form on an interior wall, to meet up to the ...

Re: Ignore gcode for a part that falls over mid-print.

I find sequential printing not suitable for small parts due to overheating. If a part is too small it does not allow enough cooling time and the layers will deform. I've found doing the entire print 1 layer at a time will keep everything crisp. I also enable "print island sequentially without o...

Ignore gcode for a part that falls over mid-print.

When printing multiple parts in a single print sometimes a piece will get knocked over. The printer will keep trying to print on top of where it was which can cause a lot of build up and in most cases causing a chain reaction knocking over many move pieces. Typically for me the nozzle will just take...
