Calibrate flow and mechanics first, then use model-specific clearance or hole compensation. Do not globally scale an axis until measurement proves a true axis error.

Ordered repair sequence

Step 1

Use accurate calipers and measure a known calibration part.

Step 2

Fix first-layer elephant foot before judging XY fit.

Step 3

Calibrate flow/extrusion.

Step 4

Check belts, pulleys, steps/mm or rotation distance only with a reliable measurement method.

Step 5

Test holes/pegs in the same orientation as the real part.

Step 6

Use slicer hole/XY compensation only after mechanics and flow are correct.

Step 7

Update CAD clearance based on repeated process capability.
