![]() Minimum wall thickness is the smallest possible thickness a structure can have while maintaining functionality. Basic Guidelines and Definitionsīefore we dive into the specifics of calculating minimum wall thickness, it’s helpful to clarify some important terminology. Understanding the minimum wall thickness for 3D printing will set you up for design success and lower your production costs. If your walls are too thin, the part may not be functional, may warp during printing, or, once again, cost more to produce because you’ll have to go back and rework the design. ![]() If the walls of your parts are too thick, your part will cost more to produce, take longer to print, and may even wind up cracking. Choosing the right wall thickness is perhaps one of the most important decisions when designing parts for 3D printing.
