Test Object #001

thingiverse

This test object measures 30mm in diameter and is designed for evaluating low z-layer height resolution. It features five different heights: 0.5mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm, and 2.5mm. The 0.5mm and 2.5mm regions share a quadrant divided into a triangle and an arc wedge. The 1.0mm region has a column with a cone on top, standing at 7mm tall. The cone has a 3mm diameter base and is 2mm taller than the column. A 1.5mm diameter circle tops the cone. The 1.5mm region contains a hexagonal pillar within a smaller hexagonal cavity. The external dimensions are approximately 6.4mm wide from face to face and 7.4mm from point to point, while the internal hexagonal space measures 5.6mm in length from point to point and 4.8mm from face to face. It stands at 5mm tall from the region's surface. The 2.0mm region features a cone slanted at a 30-degree angle. Due to a modeling error, there are issues when slicing the STL file. The object was created using Google Sketchup and exported as an ASCII STL file with mm dimensions. Slicing was done via Kisslicer, and the test prints were produced on a PrintrBot Simple V2.0 printer with a wooden frame, spectra fishing line for x/y, and a 1/4" ACME threaded rod for z-axis. To use this test object, download the Sketchup file to export your own STL or use the provided STL file. Slice it using your preferred software and print with your chosen settings to evaluate its performance.
