Machine origin

Term · Additive manufacturing and 3D printing · MLC-T-ADM-000212

The fixed reference point (0,0,0) within the 3D printer's internal coordinate system, from which all movements and positions are measured. This point is typically located at a specific corner of the build platform or within the build volume. The machine uses this origin to accurately position the print head and build plate during operation.
