STOP Printing Calibration Cubes!

Quite simply, this 3D Printer calibration method greatly improved my prints. This calibration flower is a simple and robust method for calibrating the X and Y axis of your 3D printer to get more dimensionally accurate prints. I hardly need to show you how to calibrate your 3D printers, you simply, print, measure and update your settings. Most instances only require a single print to get amazing results but if your printer is poorly set up, you may need to repeat the process a second time for best results. In my opinion it's the best 3d printer calibration method available at the moment.

Great stuff - I've always been dissatisfied with the so-called calibration cubes, and instead printed much larger strips etc - but haven't been measuring internal dimensions (obvious as soon as you said it that's needed!), and just never thought to check skew, wasn't aware it was something that could be accounted for in the firmware! A new dawn of dimensionally accurate prints awaits!

Very nice indeed! I have printed some 5 or 6 cubes in a year on 11 printers as i never thought it has any real use at 2x2x2cm, but i did print a 50x50x50 once as it is more useful for accuracy.. This video changes that! 😃

Really appreciate this calibration test. With a couple of prints I was able to go from ~0.43% XY error and ~0.23° skew to ~0.04% XY error and 0.06° skew. Trickiest thing is getting your calipers squared up with the part when taking measurements. Wonder if as another suggested having notches for this would help.

Love the design, thanks for sharing! My go-to calibration object has always been the "5 mm calibration steps" (scaled 2x because 5 mm is too puny for a 0.4 mm nozzle): it has the same advantages of internal + external dimensions for measurement, but also has a little section for bridging, and the progressively smaller tiers also let you gauge the cooling (increasing "overextrusion" at higher Z is usually a symptom of insufficient cooling in my experience). But it doesn't have anything for skew, which is something I've never even thought about before, so I'll definitely be giving your flower a shot 🙂

Using the filament shrinkage setting in superslicer with a very small value, eg 99.965% results in lots of overextrusion and print looking crappy. Ultimately after hours of work to arrive at the desired adjustment value, the recommended strategy does not work. Tried with the current stable release and nightly build, same results. If perhaps I could access the source files in the protected spreadsheet, I could calculate an XY compensation factor, which requires an absolute value rather than a percentage. Recommendation: if you are going to protect the sheet, provide the values we need to plug into the slicer too for both SS shrinkage and XY compensation factor.
@Spacekriek 2 жыл бұрын
I have an older CR-10S printer and use Cura as a slicing program. There is an add on for Cura called skew compensation. I found this add on to be really useful and it was quite an eye opener to discover that my precious printer was not all that accurate on the three basic planes as I expected it to be ! It was even out by a fraction of a degree on the XY plane. Fortunately, the fix for this plane required a relatively quick and flat print and a bit of basic algebra. For the other two planes I designed a kind of pulley with a sturdy axial piece and printed a few. I am fortunate to have a large old Meccano set and built myself a test rig to analyze the wobble on a number of these test pulleys. After about 5 or 6 tries I had the wobble reduced to virtually zero. This was a very interesting project on its own !

I have just used this very successfully to calibrate my Ender 3 V2 Pro. I have two suggestions for improving the excel spread-sheet. I'm using the Orca slicer and entered the shrinkage compensation value. However, on a 2nd calibration run the compensation value suggested by your spread-sheet doesn't take into account the currently set shrinkage value. It is an easy calculation to do, but would help if you could enter the current shrinkage value so that it does the calculation for you. An unlocked area would be useful for entering comments on changes made.

@jheins3 2 жыл бұрын
You're correct, this is a superior measurement system for calibration. My only concern with this method (as its not described in the video) is how you're determining/separating form from position. All measurements are measurements of form/size. Whereas, I believe, skew would be a measurement of POSITION. This means that all measurements relating to skew (or features out of place) should originate from the same feature, ie a Datum. You could do this by applying a cylindrical feature in the center of the part and cylindrical features at the diagonals and measure center-line to center-line for these lengths. This would probably yield less than 3% improvement, but for accuracy sake... now you know.

I bought the STL and read the instructions. Basically, what you're getting at is that we should get accurate prints by changing the E-steps and rotation distance (also account for Skew)? I have always used horizontal expansion to get accurate prints but the approach here is different. Am I correct in these assumptions? Should I never depend on horizontal expansion again? Will changing rotation distance really carry over dimensional accuracy to other models and prints?

Have you considered caliper tolerances in these measurements. Maybe there is nothing to change if it's readings are in tolerances of your calipers. By the way this will differ between Prusa Slicer and Cura because Cura calculate rectangle area for line protection, therefore 0.4 mm thick line which is 0.2 mm high, will be arround 0.44mm wide if you print with 100% flow for outer walls (extrusion multiplier)

I printed it on my Core XY but I have two questions about the excel file: 1. The file says "If you have CoreXY, X and Y are 'locked' to each other so use the average of the two errors." But wouldn't it be better to rotate the print by 45° to be exactly on the axis and have x and y seperate rather than getting just the average? 2. My part turned out slightly to small so the file suggests to either Scale the Part up in the slicer or adjust the Steps but if I decide for the later, if I understand correctly the printer will move a further distance without knowing that it also has to extrude more material to make up for the now bigger part did the file already calculate with that or do I have to adjust the extruder after this aswell?

tested.... my skew is not problem, problem is in inner XY compensation. first you need calibrate this then you need calibrate skew. your skew never gonna be correct. my wall are 5,2mm they need to be 5mm! so first inner compesation in slicer. after that skew. (and ) excel file for superslicer -klipper is in error rotation distance. result is in only in 2 decimals. klipper works on 6 decimals (documentation) so on ender(depend on hardware pulley) you missing some milimetes on correct move x-y. not mentioned in the video and instructions. if skew is saved (SAVE_CONFIG) then it does not need to be loaded every time in gcode at the beginning and end. it is constantly loaded on every print. (same goes for z-offset). if you wanna load skew on each print then a macro command needs to be made, like bltouch.

This is a great calibration tool. I may need a little input though because results got worse. I expected the print to get bigger but it got smaller. I'm using Klipper and Cura. I used the SuperSlicer setting in a Cura plugin for "Scaling Factor Shrinkage Compensation". I'm thinking this value for Cura should be 100.19 and not 99.81 like in the Excel file. X = -0.19% Y = -0.20% Skew = -0.03% Inner = -0.01% Outer = -0.37%

I'm guessing that you measure inner dimensions to cancel out actual line width. Though using your model you can not only measure shrinkage rate but also horizontal expansion (Cura setting, there is also one in super slocer). Shrinkage = (measurement of 100mm - measurement of 50mm ) / (100-50); horizontal expansion = (100 * shrinkage - measurement of 100mm) / 2.
