odd Slicing problem

oin

 

After creating a STL built using Fusion 360 i get this weird pattern, the infill does not reach the edge where the higher part starts. This causes the print to be very weak where the upper part joins the bottom. I have tried verious setting and nothing helps. if i slice it using Cura it is much stronger.  I hope this makes sense and some one has an idea what causes the problem.

Looks like that in the preview image infill IS reaching the edges just fine.  You might want to tilt the preview and examine it more closely.

Thanks Tim,

i guess i was not very clear on what i was asking, long day. if you look at where the infill(brown) starts it sits on top of a solid layer(red). this causes a very weak transition. So i guess the question should be why does the slicer not just build infill down to the base instead of making the transition?

Thanks for your help.

Not sure why your colors are different than mine, but that sounds like the interface layer between bridge infill and the supported solid infill above. Look at the color key for feature types.

Looks like a normal stack to me: and as strong as it gets without 100% infill.

Thanks Tim ,

100% infill solves the problem. Fortunately its a smallish part
