Extrusion Calibration Extrusion calibration is the process of fine-tuning the extrusion system of a 3D printer to ensure accurate material flow. This involves adjusting parameters such as E-steps, extrusion multiplier, and extrusion width. Proper calibration prevents issues like under-extrusion, over-extrusion, or inconsistent layers. A common method for extrusion calibration is printing a test object, such as a single-wall cube or extrusion flow tower, and measuring the wall thickness or material flow. Calibration is particularly important when switching between different filament types, nozzle sizes, or extruder components. Well-calibrated extrusion ensures consistent layer adhesion, precise dimensions, and overall print quality. |
