How to adjust 2 nozzles at a same level??

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

I bought a dual extruder from Geeetech, now I am confused by a question. Because the 2 nozzles are not at the same level, the printed item looks not so good.

As you can see in the picture, the peirimenter is printed by extruder 1, infill is printed by extruder 2. Because the distance between the nozzles and hot bed are different, the perimeter was printed not perfect.

Do you have any idea to have them at the same level?? I will be grateful if you share your ideas. Thank you.

    Just thinking out loud from my twenty+ years as a mechanical engineer, machine designer/builder- First adjust one nozzle intentionally clear by 1-2 mm adjust the other one close to perfect level the deck…

    Hi, Enrico Thank you for your reply. Could you please leave a picture of that tool? What is its name?

    Thank you for your answer, Enrico. But it would be better if there is a photo of that tool. I can't find it on the Internet.

    This is the printed item after I calibrated the height difference by vernier caliper. It looks much better than the former one.
