7.5 Vertical Calibration
Vertical Calibration. The main purpose of Vertical Calibration is to ensure all three
axes are perpendicular to each other in order to guarantee consistent, high-quality
prints.
1. Find the VC.stl in the installation directory of UP Studio. Load it in UP Studio
software, and follow the normal process to print it.
2. After the model printing is done, take out the build surface with the printed model
on it. Don’t remove the object from the surface. The printed model includes 4 corners,
and 4 L-shapes.
3. In the UP Studio Software, find Model Calibration. Click Default before entering
any new values into the edit fields.
4. Perform X/Y measurements. Use a thin ruler or a Vernier scale to measure the
diagonal length of the printed model from one corner to the opposite corner, as
shown in the figure below for X1. Then, do the same for X2. Enter the values for X1
and X2 into the software.
5. Click the Confirm button to complete the X/Y axis calibration. The software will
round those values to the nearest tenth.
