Re: Slicer filling in holes

Ok, but say I have more than one item that overlaps and I WANT them merged since S3D doesn't otherwise handle overlapped items well. I can provide an example, if you need.

Slicer filling in holes

New thread as requested.

Issue: Slicer is filing in holes that should be there. The presliced image looks fine and other slicers like Afinia/UP! and MatterControl don't have a problem with it.

Re: Slicer filling in holes on a few layers

I just tried changing the layer thickness and the separate command. Testing on a simple item, just a spiral tube on a disc. Still fills in the tube.

Re: Slicer filling in holes on a few layers

In my case I can make a simple cylinder and S3D will fill it in. I'm generating the models from TurboCAD Pro 2015, I draw as solids and save as STL. Afinia/UP slicer has no problems with these models at all but I need to print things on my larger delta printer. Mattercontrol says "too many poly...

Re: Slicer filling in holes on a few layers

I'm still getting this with version 3.1.1, I can often work around by making a slice in the part (essentially making a C with a very small opening) and letting the slicer heal it back. This doesn't always work and I have a couple of products for my company hung up while I try to hammer S3D into not ...

Re: Feature proposal: Adaptive infill

A variation would be to simply delete infill where it's not needed for support. Essentially internal support structure.

Steppers Disabled

I noticed an odd message on my Rostock Max v2 when using S3D, "Steppers Disabled" at some point while it's printing (but everything is still running). Not sure if it's related but I noticed if Windows turns off my monitor (sleep is disabled) the printer will pause, make a click, then conti...
