Perfect First Layers Every Time With Automatic Bed Calibration

Before every 3D print the Lulzbot TAZ Workhorse will wipe the nozzle and probe four contact points to find the relative plane that defines the print bed.

  • Ensures that every 3D print has a perfectly consistent first layer.
  • Z-Offset adjustment through the LCD allows you to fine-tune the first layer for the ideal distance.

Eliminate Z Wobble By Using A Belted Z Drive

A lead screw driven Z-axis can introduce artifacts into your 3D prints, but a belt driven Z-axis can move faster and more consistently.

  • Zero chance of Z-Wobble, a common source of troubleshooting.
  • Fast Z movement allows for quick Z-hop travels, avoiding the possibility of knocking over printed parts.
