Hello

Sorry for my bad english

I have à problem with à commercial stl
S3d see the piece as multiple pieces

In Cura, i have no problem !!

Any Idéa ?
Thank you

Best regards

I'm guessing that your STL file isn't a proper 3D solid. It looks like it has self-intersecting features. Either boolean it together properly or run it through a service like netfabb to repair it.

Alternatively, use the Separate Connected Surfaces option on the Mesh dropdown menu. Using it will generate additional items in the model list...which is normal, but the part should slice okay.

Thanks for your answer

This solution work with certain stl.

When separate this stl has 2 models, but it's no solid

I can't print it corrtectly

I do not understand why 3 rows of the perimeter are also distant, the line of solid layer are too distant.
Is it the fault of the stl?

Thank you


Edit : it's my fault, iseen that the part, bases on support, I have to put a full layer

I tried the link given by dkightley in another post ==> https://netfabb.azurewebsites.net/

The model are wonderful !!!!!
