X/Y dimensional accuracy
Hi Folks,
Trying to identify options for improving the dimensional accuracy of printed parts on my vc3.0.
I'm printing some test squares and finding the following:
modeled x-y vs actual x-y
20 x 10 -> 19.89 x 9.93
30 x 10 -> 29.83 x 9.95
50 x 10 -> 49.73 x 9.93
80 x 10 -> 79.66 x 9.93
40 x 40 -> 39.70 x 39.71
Short of scaling every part in x & y in the slicer, is there a more universal fix that can be applied? Thinking about tweaking stepper rotation_distance for x & y steppers but want to open some discussion on it to see what others think might be a solution.
I have another printer that results in much more accurate sizes without scaling in the slicer so I feel like this can be done, just not sure what the right approach would be.
