In April 2022 Ultimaker released its biggest improvement in Ultimaker Cura 5.0. A new Variable Line Width/Arachne slicing engine. The revolutionary new slicing engine unlocks variable line widths when slicing files.

In the past, sliced files would use a consistent line width, with the exact width depending on the nozzle diameter and the line width settings used. The result was that when slicing a file, if part of the print was two-and-a-half lines thick, two lines would be generated, with a small gap left between those two lines. With this release, your printed parts will now have fewer internal gaps which means they’ll not only look better, but they’ll be stronger as well.
