Z-Axis Calibration Z-axis calibration ensures accurate movement and alignment along the vertical axis, enhancing layer height consistency, dimensional accuracy, and surface finish. It adjusts stepper motor steps, lead screw alignment, and motion settings for precise positioning. Proper calibration reduces artifacts like layer shifting, banding, or misalignment. Advanced printers use optical encoders, closed-loop systems, and fine-tuning tools for high-resolution accuracy. Z-axis calibration is crucial for complex geometries, high-resolution prints, and multi-material setups. |
