Strange print result

#1

Should be a simple print. Saturn 2 8k, elegoo grey water washable. Previous print were good. Auto orientation, auto generated suppot, add extra supports under flat, sliced at 45 microns.
Top of the plate is flat, but bowed. the bottom of the plate has sloped up to the left.
ideas please.

Hi Dave,

  • try to use a little thicker supports if you are not using latticed auto generated supports. You can make the tip thin, that is usually no problem. But the entire support needs to have enough stiffness for peeling.
  • try supporting the inner flat surface.
  • perhaps add 3-4 supports at the lowest point if you insist using single poles.

This in all looks a bit unstable to me. It will warp.

kind regards
Elco
