Hi All!
I’m trying to improve the quality of my multicolor print but it seems I can’t find a solution.
This is my model, the stl has no issues.
In the slicer the lines crossing the colors are generated as walls, those lines do not exist in the model, please see below:
obviously the colors are visible underneath the bottom shell.
Bear in mind that I’ve printed with the following settings:
- standard 0.20mm
- bottom/top shell 5 layers 1 mm thickness
Now my questions are:
is there a way to avoid those lines?
if not, should I make the bottom shell even thicker?
Could it be that the filament is slightly transparent? the issue is mainly on the red, which is a SUNLU PLA+ 2.0
thanks!
a higher infill and ironing would help. that, and preferably not doing things at 1mm ((my own opinion, which COULD be wrong))
yeah but that wouln’t make those phantom wall lines go away. they would still be visible.
The whole model is 5mm thick, should I make the bottom shell thicker?
but default it’s zero (i mean the bottom shell)
… huh… 
i wonder… going to think on it for a bit
I would suggest indeed making the bottom shell thicker, and using a more solid pattern, something along the lines of Rectilinear or Concentric. and increase the infil slightly. all things should reduce this.
oh and the infil should be something like Adaptive / Support cubic.
nothing, just tried. Same thing
it’s the color change/position that causes the issue but I don’t get it… is it a bug or something?
happens with orca slicer too
… send me the 3mf file… i assume a1?
I managed to solve it. The problem was caused by the threads on the back of the model.
Basically used the way I suggested you in the other thread (slicing the model horizontally) in order to leave the threads out and have the back 1 single color, multicolor only the face.
