Term · Additive manufacturing and 3D printing · MLC-T-ADM-000417
The primary horizontal direction of movement within the build platform of an additive manufacturing system. This axis typically represents the left-to-right motion of the print head or the build plate, depending on the machine's configuration. It forms part of the Cartesian coordinate system used to precisely position material during the printing process.
