Question for all the 3D printing rocket start ups out there:
In the industry, how does one go about specifying design, manufacturing and
inspection intent for 3D printed rocket parts (or any 3D printed Aerospace
components)?
Particularly, with regards to tolerancing and GD&T. Since the printers mainly
read basic dimensions from the CAD file that is supplied.
We know that traditional CNC mills can usually do +/- .005” and lathes can hold
it as tight as +/-.001”.
What are similar tolerances that one must consider while designing 3D printed
chambers, injectors, etc?
Thanks in advance,
Anu
