Zero point

Term · Additive manufacturing and 3D printing · MLC-T-ADM-000422

The designated origin (0,0,0) in the coordinate system of an additive manufacturing machine, serving as the reference point for all movements and material deposition. This point is typically set at a specific corner or center of the build platform. All G-code commands for toolpaths and positioning are relative to this established zero point.
