Before we start tackling the hardware, we need to make sure everything is clean.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Clean the Nozzle<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>First things first! If you have any residual plastic on the tip of the nozzle, your bed-to-nozzle gap will be off. Thankfully, the tip is easy to clean with a dry cotton cloth.<\/p>\n<p>Heat the nozzle to the temperature the last-used material was printed at and wipe off the excess plastic. If that doesn\u2019t do the trick, a brass brush may be used to carefully clean around the tip. Just be careful not to overdo it, otherwise the nozzle may be damaged by the hard brass bristles.<\/p>\n<p>When working close to the hot end, be sure to observe proper safety practices like wearing heat-resistant gloves and using common sense.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Clean the Build Surface<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As with the nozzle, your 3D printer\u2019s bed surface should also be clean. For a glass build surface, we can mostly use a razor blade or a spatula to scrape off any large residue and debris. The blade will also work for other hard build surfaces, but be sure to not use it on a build plate that might be easily damaged, such as one with a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/all3dp.com\/2\/pei-sheet-as-a-3d-printer-print-bed-sheet-a-guide\/\">PEI<\/a>\u00a0coating.<\/p>\n<p>Once large debris is removed, we can proceed with washing the build plate. If it can be removed, cleaning it in the sink with ordinary dish soap and lukewarm water works quite well. For a non-removable build plate, you can use isopropyl alcohol on a paper towel or cloth. After that, dry it with a soft cloth.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a good idea to not touch the clean build surface with your bare hands, as that can add oils from your skin. We don\u2019t want any grease on the surface, as that can adversely affect bed adhesion. For different types of build surfaces, other techniques may apply, so be sure to check what you have to avoid damaging its surface.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Hot or Cold?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>For the bed leveling process, it doesn\u2019t matter if the bed and nozzle are hot or cold unless you plan to only print with one set of settings. In this case, heating up to those temperatures before leveling can help to ensure your level is exact (because materials will expand), but this isn\u2019t strictly necessary.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"headline headline--xxl\">Bed Leveling<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<figure style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.facfox.com\/imgs\/2022\/05\/25\/c62aa743ea5cecd8.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"576\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">It&#8217;s kind of a Goldilocks situation (Source: 3D Newb)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Manual 3D printer bed leveling can be a frustrating experience even for seasoned makers. However, as soon as you understand the basics of the process, you\u2019ll easily master this useful skill.<\/p>\n<p>Many 3D printers have\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/all3dp.com\/2\/auto-leveling-3d-printer-do-i-really-need-it\/\">automatic or semi-automatic bed leveling<\/a>, but\u00a0even in those cases, it can be a good idea to periodically do it manually (because automatic systems\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/all3dp.com\/2\/auto-leveling-3d-printer-do-i-really-need-it\/\">don\u2019t actually level the bed<\/a>). Also, if something is wrong with your first layer, you may be able to more easily find the faulty part or setting if you know what\u2019s going on with the bed.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Step 1: Create Some Workspace<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Most FDM 3D printer beds are mounted with four adjustable screws in the corners of the build plate. Adjust each screw a couple of turns to increase the distance between the nozzle and build plate. (If \u201ctouching up\u201d a leveling job done not too long before, you may not need to do this.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Step 2: Position the Printhead<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Now you want to get the nozzle close to the build plate. To do this, simply home your print head using whatever method your printer or control software provides.<\/p>\n<p>This will send the nozzle to what the machine considers to be position (0, 0, 0) in the build volume\u2019s space. What\u2019s important is that third 0, which represents the Z coordinate or height, because it\u2019s at this height that your machine will print the first layer.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, disable (or unlock) the stepper motors so that you\u2019re able to freely push the printhead within the XY-plane. Again, this should be an option provided by your printer\u2019s firmware.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Step 3: Measure and Adjust<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<figure style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.facfox.com\/imgs\/2022\/05\/25\/260c671eb23330cb.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">With a bit of patience, bed leveling can be easy (Source: wannamaker via Ultimaker)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>You want to calibrate the 3D printer bed so that it\u2019s as level as possible at all four corners and in the middle. In theory, the nozzle should\u00a0<em>just<\/em>\u00a0touch the build plate at these locations, and this is why we try to pass something thin between them \u2013 like a piece of paper. Reaching the point just before experiencing resistance while sliding the paper around ensures that the \u201cgap\u201d is correct and it\u2019s consistent at all five locations.<\/p>\n<p>Move the printhead to a corner of the bed and put your paper between the nozzle tip and the print bed. If there\u2019s no resistance when dragging the paper back and forth between the nozzle and the bed, adjust the closest leveling screw to tighten the gap.\u00a0Be careful not to put pressure on the 3D printer bed (for example with your hand), as this will push the bed down enough to make the gap bigger than it really is.\u00a0Sliding your paper continually, keep adjusting the screw until you can feel a slight drag from the nozzle and 3D printer bed.<\/p>\n<p>Repeat this same process on all remaining corners. When the corners are okay, move the print head to the middle of the build plate and check that the same resistance can be felt there. Readjust the screws if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, double-check each corner and the center again, as your adjustments may have affected other spots. If that\u2019s the case, repeat the entire procedure until all five points are leveled.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Step 4: Inspect the First Layer<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Before running a complete 3D print job, it\u2019s a good idea to print only the first layer in order to verify successful bed leveling. If successful, the first layer should look more or less the same over the whole surface. If not, you may need to further adjust your level.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"listicle-header__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"listicle-header__content\">\n<h3 class=\"headline headline--xxl\">Adjusting the Nozzle Gap<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"listicle-header__image\">\n<div class=\"image image--center image--rounded image--loaded\">\n<figure style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.facfox.com\/imgs\/2022\/05\/25\/ffd097c54710360d.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"562\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The nozzle gap is crucial to getting the right &#8220;squish&#8221; on the first layer of your 3D print (Source: Lamin Kivel\u00e4 via All3DP)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Although they\u2019re often discussed together, it\u2019s important to know that adjusting Z height isn\u2019t typically something that\u2019s done as often as bed leveling. Generally speaking, there are two ways to adjust Z height, and they\u2019re done at different times.<\/p>\n<p>The first way is to set it via firmware, making it something of a \u201cfixed\u201d value that\u2019s usually only touched\u00a0during\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/all3dp.com\/2\/how-to-calibrate-a-3d-printer-simply-explained\/\">printer calibration<\/a>. The second way is to set it via your slicer (perhaps as \u201cfirst layer height\u201d), and this is something one might choose to adjust before a particular print job depending on the material, type of print, or type of bed.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, you shouldn\u2019t have to be adjusting the Z height in order to compensate for poor bed leveling. In theory, the firmware\u2019s Z height should be properly set\u00a0<em>before<\/em>\u00a0bed leveling, so that, when your nozzle reaches its home position, (0, 0, 0), that third 0 is in the right place.<\/p>\n<p>Too frequently relying on Z height to achieve the right gap between nozzle and print surface could result in you reaching an extreme (like the lowest possible Z height), which won\u2019t allow for future adjustments.<\/p>\n<h3>Signs the nozzle gap is too small:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The first layer is barely visible or very thin<\/li>\n<li>No filament extrudes onto the build plate<\/li>\n<li>Filament gathers on the nozzle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Signs the nozzle gap is too large:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Filament doesn\u2019t stick to the build surface<\/li>\n<li>Filament comes out like spaghetti<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/all3dp.com\/2\/3d-printer-bed-leveling-step-by-step-tutorial\/\">https:\/\/all3dp.com\/2\/3d-printer-bed-leveling-step-by-step-tutorial\/<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3D printer bed leveling is crucial to print success.
