Hi, 

Trying to use the custom unit cell for volumetric lattice in fusion, and running into some problems as it always has gaps between my cells. Im thinking it is because of what you set solidity to, but some clarification on how the volumetric lattices work in fusion would be helpful. If for example my unit cell was 50% solid, and I set my overall solidity for my main body to 50%, would it just connect all unit cells with no gaps between. In the same way, if my unit cell was 10% solid, but I set my solidity of my main body to 100% would it just completely fill the main body and override the unit cell design.

Hi,

 

Could you provide a file showing the behaviour you want or some images. I am

a little confused as to what you are asking about. Is this a Design issue or a

Manufacturing issue? What are you using it for?

 

Cheers

Hi,
 
This is a design issue. In the photo below you can see the custom unit cell im working with near the bottom, its not fully solid as there is pores through it. The main body on the left is what im trying to work with but as you can see there is gaps between each of my cells. I have set solidity to 50% for this e.g. If my unit cell was also 50% solid would this get rid of the gaps between cells. I need a porous but solid final outcome. Hope this makes sense.
