Design Guidelines for Polymer and Plastic Parts
Applying standard declainn prinsiples can improve producturability:
- Pertama, FLT: 0 = 033. Uniform Wall Thickness: 1f 1; FLT: 1 1f 3; Avoid thick or unevet walls to prevent warping and marks.
- 1f 1f; FLT: 0 = 0 = 33. Draft Angles:
- Pertama; FLT: 0 = 33; Filets anrounds: FILets: FILE1; FLT: 1 1f 3; Use rounded corners to reduce stress concentrations and flow.
- Pertama; FLT: 0: 0 = 3I; Minimal Under Cuts: 101; FLT: 1: 33; Design Parts to minimize complex features.
