Chapter 5: Build Plate Leveling
A correctly leveled build plate will almost always guarantee a quality3D object. When
printed objects have issues, the first step to diagnoseis to check and double-check to
make sure the build plate is leveled. Ageneral rule of thumb is to leave a gap that is the
thickness of a pieceof paper. However, for printing finer objects (150 micron and
lower),please use a feeler gauge to level the build plate as it requires a lesser
gapbetween the nozzle and the build plate.
The Inventor utilizes a three-point leveling system for its build plate. Atthe bottom of
the build plate, there is one spring-loaded knob in thefront and two in the back.
Tightening the screw will create a bigger gapbetween the build plate and the nozzle
while loosening it will createlesser gap.
