1. Post-Test Checks & Adjustments

  • After printing 1-2 full layers, power off and inspect:
  • Dimensional accuracy: Measure the printed part against the model—calibrate mechanical parameters if deviations are large.
  • Structural integrity: Fix missing layers, gaps, or deformation by adjusting extrusion volume or speed.
  • Equipment cleaning: Remove residual concrete from the nozzle, hopper, and bed immediately (prevents hardening and clogging).

Record parameter adjustments and repeat testing until printing is stable. Save parameter logs and test samples for future optimization.

These steps validate mechanical performance, material compatibility, and parameter settings—laying the foundation for formal production.
