Machine coordinate system

Term · Additive manufacturing and 3D printing · MLC-T-ADM-000210

A fixed reference frame defined by the physical axes of a 3D printer, with its origin at a specific point on the machine, such as a corner of the build plate. All movements and positions of the print head and build platform are referenced to this system. This system remains constant regardless of the part being printed.
