I just got my Ender 3 Pro about two weeks ago. I have gotten great prints out of it for the most part. Benchy and a mini-3D printer test came out well.
I'm currently having an issue with a very basic test object I created in FreeCad. It is a simple flat cylinder that is 50mm wide by 2mm tall. No matter what settings I change in Cura for the slicing, the object prints out 1.5mm high.
I'm using a .4mm nozzle
2mm layer height
0.4mm wall line width (all lines are set to 0.4mm)
3 wall lines = 1.2mm walls
0.8mm bottom / top shell
4 bottom layers / 4 top layers
Cura shows the slicing as 10 layers. At 0.2mm this should add up to 2mm total height.
I've tried:
- Print thin walls
- Infill density at 10% and 20%
- Union overlapping features
- stl export of item in FreeCad
- creating a mesh version of the object and then exporting that out of FreeCad
50mm X 2MM object printing out as 50mm x 1.5mm

Hi All,
I just got my Ender 3 Pro about two weeks ago. I have gotten great prints out of it for the most part. Benchy and a mini-3D printer test came out well.

Any ideas?
Thank you!
