Re: Jagged walls causes printer to shake

This exact scenario came up a week or so ago. The extra "infill" is being generated by the slicer to fulfil either the specified number of top layers or the specified number of bottom layers....and manifests itself where you have a sloping surface...as zemlin has identified. The cure is t...

[FIXED] Jagged walls causes printer to shake

Hello, been having this problem since the release of 4.0. When S3D processes a vertical radius it creates a jagged inner wall (see pics below) vs a smooth line which is causing shifting layers from the violent vibration. I have duplicated this several times and is very consistent. In order to correc...

Re: Thin Wall Behavior

Changing thin wall parameters have no effect because that's no way anywhere near being a thin wall! Can you attach a factory file for this part so someone can see exactly what is happening. Two screenshots are totally inadequate. First of all, I was under the impression this is a support forum so I...

Thin Wall Behavior

Hey guys, trying to get rid of the green zig-zag infill (Thin Wall.jpg). I have tried altering thin wall behavior and nothing seems to change. The only way I can change this is to change my layer height from 0.300 to 0.210 or lower. When I change to 0.210 layer height than I get a smooth 2 outer she...

[FIXED] Skipped Layer Using Multiple Processes

Hoping someone with Simplify 3D experience can help. I am running multiple processes and I am seeing a gap in the preview. My processes are broken down like this. - Process 1 = 0 - 65mm @ 0.300 layer height - Process 2 = 65mm - 95mm @ 0.210 Layer height - Process 3 = 95mm to complete @ 0.300 Layer h...

Re: Removed Supports still being generated and printed

Just because the software doesn't behave the way you believe it should, it doesn't mean there's a bug! The way to manually adjust the generated support is as follows: 1) Set the support to auto-generate support....but set the resolution to a high value so that no support can be generated. 2) Open t...

Re: Making a part SOLID

Thanks for all of the replies! I tried the 9999 for bottom layer and it worked great. The mistake I was making was not really understanding how infill worked. I though if you had 100% infill than that meant "solid layer" but after paying more attention to the colors I realized I really wan...

Making a part SOLID

OK, probably been discussed before but everything I am reading is not getting me closer to an answer. How do you print an object SOLID, no infill and I mean 0 infill? What settings do need to make this work?

Thanks,

Dennis
