Prints Caving Slightly after Adding Height Range Modifier

Hi everyone! 

I've been experiencing problems lately after adding a height-range modifier to my print. 

The print is at 0.20mm except for when the height range modifier kicks in, going from 0.1-0.125-0.15-0.175-0.2mm (for a cleaner transition).

The only reason I am doing a height range modifier is that that part of the print needs structural stability, and 0.2mm wasn't giving me enough strength.

However, I started noticing that my print is sort of caving in where the height-range modifier is (shown below). The same object without height -range modifier is shown below for your reference.

Any thoughts on how to fix this? Help will be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,

Caleb

Not sure why they are not coming through, but let me try a link to Google Photos:

For the print with height range modifier, click here.

For the print without the height range modifier, click here.

Hope this works!

Thanks

Caleb

Why not include the pictures on the forum so they last as long as the forum is up? Links elsewhere invariably get lost in a few years.

Click the Add Media button, then Upload Files, select the image you want from your computer, then select Insert Into Post.

Regards,

Mark
