Setting Compensation Values - TierTime UP mini User Manual

Platform Calibration: 2.Setting Compensation Values
Afte setting the nozzle height, the drop down menu next to the
buttons will be available. A compensation value between 0.1 - 1.0 mm
will be available for setting.
To calculate compensation value:
Platform height - nozzle height = compensation value
As shown in the left, when platform
is at the "nozzle height", only part of
the platform is touching the nozzle.
Therefore we need to set compensation
values for all other calibration points to
inform the printer about the distance
between nozzle and print sur face
thorughout the XY plane.
F o r e x a m p l e , s e t t i n g t h e
compensation value for calibration
point No.3. Assume the "platform
height" is 120 and the "nozzle height"
is 119, the compensation value
should be set to 1.0.
After setting 1.0 in the drop down
menu, the nozzle will move to point
No.3 and the platform will rise 1 mm.
Now we can use the paper again to
verify the compensation value.
After setting all calibration points click
"Appy/Save Current Values " to finish
the calibration.
