Re: Support layers lifting

Ok, that's great. I had the support problem happen twice, both on 25+ hour prints, so it's a bit stressful. These are my settings..

Re: Support layers lifting

Why is it that whenever something doesn't do what the user wants, then it's got to be a bug??? Are you serious? If not a bug, not a strong aspect of S3D considering I had already reinforced them with boxes. If they are too tall to print then isn't that the programs function to make sure they do. At...

Re: Support layers lifting

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll give those a try. The ABS filament I'm using temperature is 210-250, I prefer the lower end temp for better print quality. I could be wrong about that, but regarding the supports I had a better outcome but even with the reinforcement at the base a few of the tall sup...

Re: Support layers lifting

Increasing the layer height to .08 seems to have helped with the flimsy support adhesion, but I think my problem may be the extruder temp which I had at 210 degrees for this print. The supports aren't holding to the raft very well, the ones at the back came away completely... http://i1341.photobucke...

Re: Support layers lifting

I changed the layer setting to 0.8 and increased the fill density for the supports, that fixed the problem and it's printing ok now but at a lower resolution than I'd like. So it has something to do with the .05 layer resolution. As I will want to print right down to 20 microns, any suggestions on a...

Support layers lifting

Hi, I'm having a problem when printing this model where the first layers for the supports keeps lifting. The first image shows the underside of the model in Simplify 3D, you can see the supports along the front of the object, and the second shows where the lines of filament at the base of those supp...
