FFF / FDM TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Standard lead time About 4 working days, depending on part size, quantity, number of components and finishing degrees.
Standard accuracy ±0.012 in (± 0.3 mm) - may vary depending on geometry.
Layer thickness 0.004 in (0.1 mm) to 0.012 in (0.3 mm)
Minimum wall thickness 0.039 in - 1 mm
Maximum build dimensions Dimensions are unlimited as components may be composed of several sub-parts. The maximum build envelope is 13.78 x 15.75 x 15.75 in (350 x 400 x 400 mm).
Surface structure Unfinished parts typically have a rough surface but all kinds of fine finishes are possible. FFF/FDM parts can be smoothed, painted and coated.
