Our shop just got a Stratasys Fortus 450; none of our engineers have an extensive background in industrial AM and we're trying to schedule them for training, but we conducted a few test prints and are seeing a lot of overextrusion on the seams. I've read that this printer has some difficulties with seams, but this seems excessive to my untrained eye.

We have the calibration dialed in pretty tight. Curious if anyone thinks this is a user error (ie something we will fix when we get trained), a limitation of the machine, or something not functioning as it should. If it's a machine limitation, I'd be pretty disappointed considering the cost of the machine and comparing it to prints on my entry-level hobbyist machines.

Print was done in ASA.
