Wall thickness influences printability and material properties: below 1.0mm may not print and risks damage; up to ~3mm has flexibility, and beyond this will be stiff. Thick walls may be hollowed out to avoid deformation during manufacturing, leaving the internal spaces full of unfused PA12 Nylon powder.

MINIMUM 1.0mm

Parts exceeding or falling below the specified limits are incompatible with our equipment and cannot be produced effectively.

Embossed details are shallow raised features on your model, such as texture, patterns and text. Details smaller than 0.8mm in thickness may not be visible on your part.

MINIMUM 0.8mm

Engraved details are imprinted or recessed features on your model. Details must be at least 0.4mm in width and depth for clarity.

MINIMUM 0.4mm

Blind holes are more susceptible to blockages than through holes. A minimum diameter of 2mm is recommended, with an increase of 2mm in diameter for every 10mm depth.

MINIMUM: ø2mm

+DEPTH: ø+2mm per 10mm depth

Pre-assembled components such as hinges or interlocking parts may fuse if too close together, especially if they have thick walls.

MINIMUM 0.5mm

For parts intended to be assembled post-printing. A free fit offers more space for easy assembly and movement, while a close fit is tighter and may require some force or adjustments to assemble.

FREE FIT 0.2mm

CLOSE FIT 0.1mm

It’s important to consider the distance between engraved letters as well as the line weight of embossed text. Any material thickness below 0.8mm may not be visible.

MINIMUM 0.8mm

Avoid designing large flat components as they’re particularly susceptible to deformation or warping. Adding support ribs often exacerbates deformation, so it's best to steer clear of large flat surfaces if possible.
