Our FDM manufacturing standards
We manufacture your parts according to strict manufacturing standards. A verification of these requirements is included in our inspection report that is shipped with every order.
- A dimensional accuracy of ± 0.5% with a lower limit of ± 0.5 mm (± 0.020")
- Consistent surface finish with no bumps or delamination. Marks left by retraction and layer changing are acceptable.
- All support material is removed such that the supported surface has a consistent finish.
- All parts are printed with 3 outline / perimeter shells or a wall thickness of 1.2 mm.

Design guidelines for FDM
The table below summarizes the recommended and technically feasible values for the most common features encountered in 3D printed parts.
Feature | Recommended size |
---|---|
Unsupported walls | 0.8 mm (0.0315'') |
Supported walls | 0.8 mm (0.0315'') |
Minimum feature size | 2.0 mm (0.00787'') |
Minimum hole diameter | 2.0 mm (0.00787'') |
