Voids after slicing the specimen.

Hi everyone!

I am a new Prusa and have little experience with this device. I have designed the porous scaffold specimen (Picture 1) and tried to include the wall around the specimen by using Solidworks and sliced it in Prusa. However, I found that there are small vacancies appear around the wall which expected to be solid. (Picture 2) Is there any suggestion to prevent those voids to occur in my specimen?

Welcome to Prusa.  It might help to see your slicer settings.  Often people need to see the 3MF file which you can export from slicer and upload zipped.

Thank you for your reply! This is my 3MF zip file for both specimens. Hope it helps. specimens

@benz-2

I do not think this will print.  The gaps will create voids which create errors when you try to slice them.

Do you have any suggestions about this? Does it have any setting that I could try to reduce these voids?

What is the function of the lattice?

You might approximate it by creating a 'solid' cube but selecting an appropriate fill pattern and density in the slicer.

Cheerio,

The void problem was solved by changing the specimen file from STL to 3MF. However, the inside structure seems having some trouble which I have to investigate further. Thank you for every reply guys. 🙂
