Some layers have too much area and are causing defects due to changes in the force needed for separation.Is your model shelled? A thin consistent she’ll helps with uniformity.Also, your print look...

Are your parts solid or shelled out?I’ve had distortions like that occur on the layer where the part goes from solid floor to shelled. I believe Vince mentioned previously that any layer where there is...

@ Hugues No. We don’t leave a gap before printing the first layer. There is a risk that the model could drop when doing this, although overexposure will make it very unlikely. If the build platform is...

Those lines are caused by the misalignment of layers. The more separation force you get, the more likely you will see them. Often seen on larger models with repeated symmetrical patterns. There are...

Thanks for all your kindly replies These models are all shelled(see below image), as you can see from this one, the deformation happened in the early surface between support pillars and the model, just...

For the mine model, I would prop it up higher, about 4mm.For the other part (not sure what it is), I would prop it up higher also, and rotate it about 10-15 degrees around both the X and Y axes. The...

I found a pigment that does not settle at all, in fact had it sitting around for over a week without settling and it mixes right in with SPOT-HT with a few minutes of stirring. It eliminated all...

Hey guys, I’m having my model stretched in Z axis, by almost 100%. I was hoping you can help me track down the issue. For this model I switche from 100 micron to 50 micron in xyz. It’s the first time...

in your slicer make sure to set your build plate x/y size to the same size as your projected square,

for those interested, i figured it out- you need to slice on the machine that has projector attached, otherwise the changed settings dont take any effect

ProjectedX is purely informational. The Kudo3D software does not know what the XY printable dimensions are. It will just project the images in the directory 1:1 to the projector’s window. Only Creation...

Probably doesn’t have anything to do with CW, since CW doesn’t control Z lifting.It is possible, but seems strange to me, for it to be a software issue since the Kudo3D control app doesn’t permit...

Hmm… I usually print at either 0.1 or 0.05mm Z, and notice a significant difference between those (since 0.1mm is the layer height that I typically use for fine detail settings on FDM).I normally would...
