VIII CALIBRATION OF AXES
3DGence ONE printer has a unique system for precise adjustment of size parameters of the printed object. The printer
is pre-calibrated for 3DGence PLA material with an accuracy of 0.1 mm. Printing with the use of materials with differ-
ent thermal contraction may require size correction of a printed object. For most printers, such correction can be very
difficult or even impossible. With its innovative system, 3DGence ONE allows quick, easy and accurate size correction.
The new system performs only one printout calibration session and a simple measurement to acquire the accuracy of
0.02 mm.
NOTE: Each type of material used as filament has its own thermal contraction. To maximize the precision of the results,
the calibration should be made for the exact material that is to be used for printing.
To perform a precise calibration of X and Y axes, it is necessary to make a print of a special object. Calibration file is on
SD memory card – CalibrationXY_1h45min.gcode. The printing of calibration object takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes.
After printing, cooling and careful removal of calibration object (the cross), take measures of X and Y axes of the print-
ed model. Several measuring tools can be used, provided that their accuracy cannot be worse than 0.05mm:
• caliper,
• micrometer,
• coordinate-measuring machine,
• optical devices.
The printout should be measured along X and Y axis. For reliable measurement, use the following guidelines:
• the measuring point should be in the middle of the height of the printed object, both points at the height of the
same layer;
• repeat the measurement for X and Y axis 5 times. Discard the highest and lowest results from each group. Average
the results for both axes:
