Abstract

See full text

Methods, systems, and devices are described herein for improving dimensional accuracy in generating a three dimensional (3D) object. In one aspect, first data may be received, for example from a first sensor, with the first data corresponding to at least a first dimension or measurement of a filament extrudable by a 3D printer. Similarly, second data may be received, for example from a second sensor, with the second data corresponding to at least a second dimension of the filament extrudable by the 3D printer. Based on the first and the second data, an amount of filament provided to a hotend of the 3D printer may be determined. During generation of the 3D object, a speed at which the filament is provided to the hotend may be adjusted based on the determined amount of filament provided to the hotend to more accurately generate the 3D object.
