Hello,
I’m doing some research on Cura with my Ultimaker2 momentarily on how it calculates the amount of extrudate, E-values.
I saw a topic on extrudable.me about how to calculate the difference between the expected volume and the extruded volume. http://www.extrudable.me/2013/11/03/slic3r-strange-defaults-causing-qu-bd-woes/
But if a do so the expected and extruded volumes don’t match up (see figure).
What am I doing wrong?
The g-code is some lines from: UM2 - Extrusion Test - NoRet - 3-10mm3.gcode
With I belief a width of 0,4 mm (nozzle size) and a layer height of 0,25mm.
My formulas are in yellow.
Can anyone explain where the difference comes from?
