Quiver Effect The quiver effect is a vibration-induced artifact that occurs during rapid directional changes or high-speed movements in 3D printing. It results in visible ripples or oscillations on the printed surface, affecting aesthetics and dimensional accuracy. The quiver effect is caused by mechanical vibrations, resonance, or poor motion control. Advanced printers use silent stepper drivers, dampers, and reinforced frames to minimize vibrations. Proper acceleration, jerk, and speed settings reduce the quiver effect, ensuring smooth surfaces and accurate details. |
