Belt Tension Belt tension refers to the tightness of the belts that drive the X and Y axes in a 3D printer. Proper tension ensures accurate movement and prevents artifacts such as layer shifting or inconsistent dimensions. Loose belts can cause wobbling or misaligned prints, while overly tight belts may strain the printer's motors or lead to mechanical wear. Many printers include adjustable tensioners to fine-tune belt tension. Regularly checking and maintaining belt tension is essential for achieving precise, high-quality prints, particularly for complex or detailed models.
