Abstract
This disclosure relates to the field of leveling of 3D printing machines, where structures need to be
leveled over irregular floors. If some cases, printer’s structure will not provide sufficient structural
stiffness to constrain printer’s deformations within an admissible range, thus a leveling process that
corrects this eventual lack of flatness will be required. Commonly used leveling procedures may be
based either on geometrical condition measurements of specific printer’s structural components or
spatial position determination of printer’s reference points, this last one typically using laser tracker
instrumentation. These processes are typically either tedious or require the use of expensive
equipment.
