Our Manufacturing Standards

Updated February 2024

What Are Tolerances?

Tolerances are acceptable deviations or variations in dimensions, surface finish, and other geometric features of objects (produced by manufacturing technologies from digital files). 


These tolerances are crucial for ensuring that the printed parts meet design specifications and functional requirements


Some designs have specific needs (material, mating to others, or for specific applications) that require defined tolerances. These aspects affect manufacturing and need to be controlled through tolerance measurements.


For more information. TYPES OF TOLERANCES FOR 3D PRINTING.

FDM

For all FDM materials, all surfaces have a consistent visual appearance, have the support structures removed (where applicable), and will be cleaned of all excess support/build material.

SLA

All support material will be removed and support nibs will be sanded smooth using a medium sandpaper ranging from 80 to 120 grit first to remove the bumps and then a fine sandpaper, ranging from 150 to 220 grit to achieve a smooth continuous surface.

Need A DIFFERENT MATERIAL?

No worries. We partner with some of the largest manufacturing networks to be able to source parts in a range of materials. Reach out with project details to better fit your project.
