Webinar – 3D Printing Parts With Demanding Tolerances

Just because your 3D printer has a high “resolution” doesn’t mean your parts will be accurate or precise. Understanding material options and how to optimize the part-to-print workflow is essential to get the most value out of 3D printing.


Just because your 3D printer has a high “resolution” doesn’t mean your parts will be accurate or precise. Understanding material options and how to optimize the part-to-print workflow is essential to get the most value out of 3D printing.

In this webinar, Kevin Gautier, channel application engineer at Formlabs, will walk through a step-by-step example workflow for 3D printing high accuracy parts. You’ll leave with insights on hardware and material specs and considerations, pre-print software and post-processing tips, and more.

During this webinar you will learn:

  • Strategies for designing, 3D printing, and post-processing parts with demanding tolerances
  • Advantages of stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing over fused deposition modeling (FDM) and digital light processing (DLP) technologies
  • A deep dive on six engineering resins and tips for choosing a material for your application
