Diameter of printed cylinder too small despite calibration
I'm a bit lost, maybe someone has an idea.
I calibrated my VC4 so that when printing a cube the end result is the size I intended it, e.g. CAD says 10mm -> real world is 10mm.
But for whatever reason this does not work on cylinders... I want to print a cylinder diameter 8 mm and height 11 mm. Real world: height 11 mm but diameter 7.5 mm
Is it some setting I have to do?
I tried already with really low speed (40mm/s) but didn't help either.
Later I did a test print of a cylinder 30 mm diameter and 10 mm diameter (primitives from slicer). The resulting diameter was 30.8 mm and 9.8 mm?!?
What am I missing?
