Circles not perfectly round
Hi everyone,
I'm new to 3d prints. I tried to print a 100mm diameter plate and the edges aren't perfectly round as shown in the picture below.
Is it my 3d model that isn't correct or X, Y belt tension?
Thanks for the help!

OK, the issue is at SolidWorks export to STL. You have to select fine resolution when exporting.

Welcome,
Almost all 3D printers are able to print near perfect circles. Either your model is not a circle, or the gcode sent to the printer is too simplified.
RE: Circles not perfectly round
The model is made from Solidworks and then exported to STL. I used the generated gcode from PrusaSlicer.
Any idea how to verify the gcode?
Thanks.
