Hello everyone,

I've started to build Cyclone PCB Factory. For some of the parts when trying to print them I'm seeing some auto-repaired errors (attaching print-screen).

Please let me know if I should allow the application to auto-correct this errors or print it as is.

Thanks and regards,
Marius

I use Cura without an issue. No idea whether the output after auto-repairing the errors will be OK.
Please let us know if you detect gcode problems.

You can always repair the STLs with NetFabb/Meshlab or use Cura instead for the gcode generation.

Thank you for your reply!

Unfortunately, I had bad experiences with Cura when printing and that's why I've switched to another software. When I print with Cura I get the following behavior: http://i.imgur.com/BCKCTwq.jpg

Could you please tell me what version of Cura are you using and maybe what settings?

Best regards,
Marius

I didn't take note neither of the version I used, nor the settings. The latest one should work just fine.

That print result is very odd, no clue on what setting was wrong :S (maybe nozzle diam/filament diam?)

Yeah, I don't know why I'm experiencing that problem. I don't think it's something wrong with the filament diameter. Might be something related to the nozzle but I wasn't able to spot anything wrong.

In the end I've used Slic3r the latest version and then imported in Netfabb. Netfabb repaired them and generated new stl files.
Then used again Slic3r and from the repaired stl I've used the gcode file.

Thank you for your wasted time to answer my messages.

Thanks and regards,
Marius
