1. What tolerances can I expect from Makelab's 3D printing processes?

Typical tolerances depend on the process used, but Makelab prints to professional-grade standards.

2. Standard Tolerances by Process

• MJF (Nylon PA12): ±0.3 mm or ±0.3%

• SLA (Resin): ±0.2 mm, depending on geometry

• Industrial SLA (Resin): ±0.2 mm, depending on geometry

• FDM (PLA/ABS): ±0.5 mm or ±0.5%

These tolerances work for most prototyping and functional parts, though extremely tight tolerances may require design adjustments or secondary operations.
