Description
Dimensional Calibration Plate for 3D Printers
This calibration plate was specially developed to precisely check and optimally adjust the dimensional accuracy of 3D printers and filaments.
Functionality
- Shrinkage Determination: The outer edge is exactly 100 × 50 mm. If the printed part deviates, e.g., to 98 mm, this corresponds to a shrinkage factor of 98 % – ideal for correction with materials such as ABS.
- Plate Structure:
- Base plate: 4 mm thick
- Raised features: also 4 mm high
- Total thickness: 8 mm
- Diverse Test Geometries:
- Bores with diameters: Ø 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 mm
- Cylinders in the same sizes for testing fits
- Rectangular Cutouts: 20 × 10 mm and 15 × 5 mm
- Raised Features: 6 × 40 mm, 5 × 60 mm and 4 × 80 mm – ideal for checking layer structure and dimensional accuracy in Z-direction
- All geometries are whole numbers (without decimal places) to make measurement as simple and precise as possible.
Advantages
✔ Quick detection of dimensional deviations
✔ Clear reference values for inner and outer diameters
✔ Checking dimensional accuracy in X-, Y-, and Z-directions
✔ Universally usable for all common filaments (PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA, PC etc.)
✔ Clear, simple geometries for reliable measurements
