Inspecting our 3D Printer's parts helps us understand the fundamental limits of our printer's accuracy.

To inspect the quality of our printer's parts, we will need a few tools.

To check the quality of a 3D printer, the critical basic components need to be disassembled and isolated for inspection.

FDM 3D printers are very accessible. Diving deep into their architecture helps you become a better mechatronics engineer.

This is a free article. 3D printers have evolved over the past 40 years to be affordable and accessible. Anyone can make parts!
