Calibration Test

In addition to being a practical accessory, this design can serve as a print test to evaluate:

  • Dimensional accuracy (e.g., outer diameter and fit on spool/rod).
  • Wall adhesion and smoothness.
  • Printer's extrusion consistency with thin walls.
  • Printer's maximum speed, jerk and acceleration.
  • Test for new filaments or new colors.
     
Have fun!
