How to FDM Print for Part Sliding Clearance

GrabCAD Tutorials
in Assemblies
13 4 Intermediate
If you are 3D printing parts that have to fit/slide together after printing, you will need to put some sort of clearance between those parts in your CAD system. A good starting place is a clearance 2x the layer height you are going to print at, but you should make a few smaller test prints at different clearances to see if the 2x layer height rule holds for your particular situation and orientation. Have fun and happy printing!

Sometimes you will not have Solidworks or a similar program installed on your computer. And you may have to make a model immediately. In such situations, Onshape is great. The link to the modeling file from the sample technical drawing is given below. https://cad.onshape.com/documents/51b10db64d8c10d69e04f4da/w/b4cd4b090cea13100d679675/e/741f8ec43a660ff55252cd29

I wanted to get to know Onshape better and had a look at the split, transform and pattern command. I repeated this in SolidWorks and it is the same workflow.
