It sounds like there may be a setting in your slicer software that is causing supports not to generate. Please check the support settings in your slicer and ensure they are enabled. Also, make sure that the overhang angle requiring support is within the range that you have set for generating supports. If the issue persists, consider updating your slicer software or reaching out to the software's support team for further assistance.

is that a blender part without any thickness?

What is Manifold Geometry
It is important that a model's mesh is manifold in order for a slicer to accurately determine where to generate a tool path to print plastic and where not to.

In relation to 3d printing a model is manifold when you could imagine filling the entire internal volume with water from one source. In practice this means that the model mesh has one single shell with no other shells that overlap or intersect with one another and the shell has no holes in it and the mesh has no flipped normals. You can think of a shell like that of an egg shell, it encloses a single volume of space. If there is more than one shell then filling any one shell the fluid cannot reach the other shells. If shells are nested within one another completely then the volume between the two shells can be filled. If shells partly overlap then only some of the volume of one or both of the shells can be filled. If shells have holes or flipped normals then the volume will leak water.

so?

rough needle
#

or do you mean the bottom part?

pliant charm
#

if your model itself is only a surface with no thickness your slicer can't really interpret it

rough needle
#

the file itself has no bottom

pliant charm
#

send the file okay?

rough needle
#

private?

pliant charm
#

here if you want

rough needle

#

yep broken model

#

its only a surface without thickness

rough needle
#

oh okey do you know how i can fix it?

pliant charm
#

make it manifold

This service offers a free 3d model repair tools, to fix non-manifold objects (objects with tiny gaps or reversed faces):

The software Microsoft 3D Builder, Orca Slicer and Prusa Slicer can also attempt to repair a model.

best to do it in the modeling software

rough needle
#

in bambu labs?

see

#

thats the problem

#

because you "destroyed" the model

#

send the link to the model

rough needle
#

i tried it in bambu lab but i could find any solution

otherwise you gotta wait a few more hours before I am back at a PC

#

what wall thickness do you want? 2 mm

#

?

rough needle
#

5 wall thick

pliant charm
#

might need to cut off a bit more on the bottom in bambu studio

rough needle
#

its fine asslong its hollow and no bottom

pliant charm
#

not sure why you would want that but there you are. Its quick and dirty

rough needle
#

its working thanks

#

how did you do it just for me in the future when i need it

pliant charm
#

I used 3D builder to hollow it out and cut 5 nm off the bottom

#

Theres probably more elegant solutions

#

You could also clone the part, scale it down a few % and substract it

#

Would give a smooth inside

#

And you could do that in the slicer too

thank you
