The influence of two sterilisation methods and two building directions on module deformation: (a) two-slicing direction was formed in Cura software, (b) the difference in module deformation can be observed after two kinds of low-temperature sterilisation. According to the diagram, (c) L1 of all modules becomes shorter after EO sterilisation, (d, e) L2 and L3 may be shortened or extended after EO sterilisation, and they were always extended when the building direction of L2 or L3 was parallel to the Z-axis. All experiments of every module were performed by 5 measuring points.
