Cura is ontwikkeld door Ultimaker om 3d-printen zo gemakkelijk en gestroomlijnd mogelijk te maken. Cura bevat alles wat je nodig hebt om een 3d-bestand te kunnen printen. Het werkt met alle Ultimaker-printers, maar ook met die van RepRap en Printrbot. Cura laat zich gemakkelijk installeren en bevat zowel de laatste firmware als de calibratiebestanden voor de 3d-printer. Enkele dagen geleden is versie 14.12 uitgekomen en de changelog daarvan ziet er als volgt uit:
Changes & Fixes in CuraUpdate Ultimaker 2 firmware
- Fixed a problem which was introduced in 14.09. There are extreme amounts of head movements generated.
- Speed up GCode generation for large models by as much as 40%
- Fixed problems with placement of multiple objects on the build platform
- Prevent installing firmware for Ultimaker Original+ on an Ultimaker Original
- Fixed generating big GCode files (more then 200MB) on Windows
- French translation updates (Thanks to Jeremie Francois!)
- Fixed a problem where “everywhere” support did not work when german was used as language.
- Changed the handling of the heated bed, now it always heats the bed first instead of the bed and nozzle at the same time. This to prevent the nozzle from leaking.
- Fixed the “uninstall old Cura versions” option in the windows installer.
- Improved the search for old installations, so old settings are copied over.
- Fixed a bug where double clicking a file on windows did not load the file in Cura.
- Made sure the firmware versions for Ultimaker printers always match the Cura release number.
- Added a quick access button for expert settings of a certain setting.
- Added some more raft settings to dial in the raft better.
- Fixed the tooltip of support material. Now it actually explains the angles properly.
- Fixed a bug which caused the USB printing window to stop working
- Fix a bug where Cura would stop generating GCode
- Added latest offerings of Printrbot
- Detect when the endstops are not working properly. Which prevents the bed from damaging the nozzle.
