Ugly seams, under extrusion?

Post by MartinBalk »

Hi everyone!

Lately I am having issues with the seams on some of my designs (see pictures below). I am having these issues on both my Rostock Max V3 and BQ Hephestos 2 using Cura v2.3.1. Does anyone have some tips about which settings I could tweak in order to reduce or fix this issue?

Some settings of the print in the picture:

Printed on the Rostock Max V3

Layer height: 0.3

Temperature: 195

Enable retraction: off

Outer wall speed: 40

Inner wall speed: 60

If you increase your layer thickness you need to increase your temp accordingly.
I print .32mm layers at a minimum of 210 most of the time at 220 due to the high print speed.
Up your temp to 210 for a start to see if you see any change on the same part.

Remember, only change one thing at a time.
