<p>After building a Delta printer, I noticed that my whole prints are slightly tilted around the Z-axis in comparison to the slicer (e.g. Cura). There is no twist layer wise. This means, the prints themself look actually perfect. </p>

<p>I just don't know what could be the reason of the rotation. I do not believe it is a build issue of the printer, because I tried to keep the printer frame pretty stiff and symmetric. 
Could it be, that the Auto-Calibrate Feature of Marlin can add such a rotation?</p>

<p>The picture below illustrates the problem. I expect the black alignment of the print and get the orange one. Note that the print is still a rectangle with ~90° corners. </p>

I usually do Cartesian based 3d printing but the concept is the same for any drifting or leaning. You simply need to recalibrate your steps per MM for each motor, and tighten your belts. You will have the complication of the interaction of the 3 arms, that others will be able to answer better. But in the end, if each arm moves as it should, the belts are not slipping, and you do not have issues with moving too fast (jerking can cause the belt to shift, and a loose belt can cause whiplash / and other print artifacts). My bet is your steps per MM is off on one of the motors, or you could have an overheating issue (not likely). </p>\n\n<p>There are many <a href="https://best3dprinter.stan-tech.com/delta-printer-calibration-guide-z-axis" rel="nofollow noreferrer">guides</a> to help with Delta specific calibration. </p>\n\n<p>I can provide a better answer with photos.

Instead of using a proper centered slider as shown in <strong>red</strong>, I used a slider construction like illustrated in <strong>yellow</strong>. When all sliders are translated on each tower like this, the print should be tilted by the same amount. This seems to have no influence on the general shape of the object. However, for my next printer I will use a proper centered uni-body slider.</p>\n<p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/92vvC.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer" title="Image of centered slider (in red) and (slightly) translated slider (in yellow)"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/92vvC.png" alt="Image of centered slider (in red) and (slightly) translated slider (in yellow)" title="Image of centered slider (in red) and (slightly) translated slider (in yellow)" /></a></p>\n'}]
