Glossary of 3D Printing Terms
[1] |
Dimensional Compensation Dimensional compensation refers to adjusting slicer settings or design parameters to account for deviations caused by material shrinkage, over-extrusion, or thermal expansion during 3D printing. For example, users might slightly oversize or undersize a model to ensure that the final print matches the desired dimensions. This is particularly important for engineering parts that need to fit together precisely. Many slicers include compensation settings, such as tolerance adjustments or scale factors, to help users fine-tune prints. Dimensional compensation is critical for achieving accuracy in applications requiring tight tolerances, such as mechanical assemblies or prototypes. |
