[UMO+\E3DV6] Extruder calibration lead to underextrusion

· [UMO+\E3DV6] Extruder calibration lead to underextrusion
What layer thickness are you printing this with? From what I have read elsewhere, using a single wall to calibrate flow rate is not a good measure.
To check for proper calibration, print a calibration cube with infill and measure the resulting cube.
AFAIK, to check for proper flow and bonding with a single wall, you want to focus on the finish of the surface and layer bond strength of a spiralized cylinder.
Often getting started is the most difficult part of any process. A good start sets you up for success and saves you time and energy that could be spent elsewhere. That is why we have a onboarding course ready for
Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle, Ultimaker S5, Ultimaker S3 Ultimaker 2+ Connect.
They're ready for you on the Ultimaker Academy platform. All you need to do to gain access is to register your product to gain free access.

Cube print (and better the calibration cross ) allow to set up the step/mm.
also the calibration cross allow you to see if there in an horizontal expansion parameter you can play with.
I'm taking note about the spiralysed cylinder, do you have any reference about it please ?
