Uneven Layer Lines Uneven layer lines are surface artifacts caused by inconsistent extrusion, mechanical vibrations, or thermal fluctuations. They result in rough textures, visible seams, or dimensional inaccuracies. Proper calibration of layer height, flow rate, and print speed minimizes uneven lines. Advanced firmware features, like pressure advance and input shaping, enhance extrusion consistency and motion stability. Regular maintenance, including nozzle cleaning and belt tensioning, reduces mechanical issues. Proper cooling and environmental control prevent warping, shrinking, and uneven layer bonding. Managing uneven layer lines ensures smooth surfaces and high-quality prints. |
