I have problem slicing this model in S3D. It just generate a few toothpath in the preview.
I tried same model in cura and toothpath generated is ok.
Can anyone comment what is the problem? Thanks in advance ;)

I used an online repair service and sliced the file attached, it worked as should (using the Robo 3D profile)

I think the problem is that your part has no volume.

here is your part in S£D with the crossectional view. and to me it looks like it was made out of a mesh and isn't a solid.

if there is no mass or the walls are too thin for your nozzle to deal with it won't give you a preview nor would it print.

I think i must say something here..

The model slices in cura and slic3r without problems..

I think there are too many quirks in s3d still that need to be fixed.
