v1.33

release notes software v1 33 overview hello thank you so much for your support and engagement with our teams your feedback helps drive our development process and makes our products better in this release, we’ve included the following improvements to your print process changes in how we print increase in epu 40 printability increase in loctite ind405 clear z height accuracy \[m1/m2 only] reduction of excess material flashing \[l1 only] increase in print speed for densely packed builds as a reminder, we do provide the option for the on printer software to stay fixed version lock 1 31 is our offering entailing full software support of v1 31 for 2 years, between september 2021 and september 2023 you can read more about the offering here if you are interested, please contact your account manager for more details note that we strongly encourage opting into version lock 1 31 prior to upgrading to v1 32+ other improvements new alternative slicer poisson slicer \[l1 only] print time estimate increase default part label change we can’t wait to hear from you about this release keep printing great parts and sharing your feedback if you have any questions, please contact the carbon service team at support\@carbon3d com mailto\ support\@carbon3d com or lily at llee\@carbon3d com mailto\ llee\@carbon3d com changes in how we print increase in epu 40 printability we have changed how we print with epu 40 to reduce commonly encountered issues with adhesion and delamination parts that previously failed in epu 40 (ie taller parts, parts with a small surface area touching the build platform) will now have an increased chance of success with the default print plan however, there will be a decrease in accuracy and small feature resolution, and a 30% increase in print time final material properties remain similar, please refer to the updated epu 40 technical data sheet for new bayshore rebound resilience and compression set values all projects and uploaded carbons printed on a v1 33 printer with ‘epu 40’ selected as the resin will print in this new way to continue printing with the previous method, you will need to manually change the resin to ‘epu 40 legacy’ on v1 33 left pre v1 33 print result, adhesion failure right v1 33 print result, successful print increase in loctite ind405 clear z height accuracy we have increased the z scale factor by 0 3% for loctite ind405 clear to account for shrinkage and improve accuracy in the z dimension there are no changes to xy scale factors or impact on mechanical properties \[m1/m2 only] reduction of excess material flashing in order to reduce excess material flashing at the base of a part, we have added a slight delay to slices 2 5 at the beginning of a print you will notice a flat increase in print time per project we’ve seen roughly 2 3min (dpr 10, epx 82, uma 90, rpu 70), 6 10min (epu 40), 15 20min (rpu 130) increases in time in our testing, though these could vary based on the geometry of parts on the build builds with large cross sections will see less of a change due to pre existing delays if this increase in print time is detrimental to your production flow, please contact us to learn more about how you can increase the speed of your print \[l1 only] increase in print speed for densely packed builds for densely packed builds or builds with parts that have large cross sections, you may notice faster print times the time will vary depending on your build as an example, a build of 22 full palate orthodontic models printed in dpr 10 can expect up to 35% faster print time in our testing, mechanical properties and accuracy have shown to be unchanged when printing faster other improvements new alternative slicer poisson slicer an alternative slicer is now available to use from the print controls panel for when holes and small defects are not properly sliced by our default slicer the poisson slicer requires more time to analyze and slice a project the time to analyze a project may take up to 2x our default slicer additional information about how the slicer works can be found here \[l1 only] print time estimate increase all print time estimates for l1s have been increased by 15% to better reflect the actual times prints have been taking estimates err on the side of overestimating rather than underestimating this has no impact on the actual print time default part label change the unique print identifier token, {print uuid}, is now the new default for embossing and engraving in the part labels tool this will not affect any changes you previously made in your project settings if you are still using the previous default, {print serial}, we highly recommend switching over to {print uuid} for an unique identifier as soon as possible feedback we love hearing from you about your workflow, your parts, and how to improve keep your insightful feedback and ratings coming we read them carefully and follow up when you request that we contact you if you prefer real time feedback, you can always email llee\@carbon3d com mailto\ llee\@carbon3d com or contact the carbon service team, support\@carbon3d com mailto\ support\@carbon3d com
