XYZ Calibration Angle 20mm [e-step] / Prusa / Ender / Creality / Anet A8 // PLA / PET-G / TPU

Calibration test-angle for 3D printers

X, Y & Z written on the axis.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Note that I recommend calibrating the extruder before proceeding with this calibration step.

There are several, factors that can have an impact on your prints dimensions, such as the used filament or a extruder-step-calibration.
Please read the Prusa-FAQ  (link below) attentive and complete.

Here you can find a general guide to calibrate your 3D-Printer::

Please also take a look at troubleshooting-guides like this to trim your printer for excelent results first:

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Calibrate the X-, Y- and Z-Axis of your 3D-printer by:

• print one test-angle
• measure the printet model alont its x,y  and z-axis
• compare the measured dimensions against the expected dimensions

Now you can adjust your Steps per mm in your printers firmware.

You can look up the number of steps in the printer manual, in the digital printer settings, query via remote maintenance or in the firmware code on the pc.

(distance expected % distance printed) * current steps value = NEW steps per mm value.

For me it was something like::

asking the machine:

echo:  M92 X100.00 Y100.00 Z400.00 E287.00

my measured values:

X 99.8 mm

Y 99.7 mm

Z 100.2 mm

sending the machine:

M92  X100.2 Y100.3 Z399.20
