Every engineer working with additive manufacturing has seen failed prints. The question is how to reduce 3D print failures by controlling the complete workflow.

In additive manufacturing, accuracy and precision are often used as if they mean the same thing. They do not. For engineers working with functional parts, tooling, fixtures, patterns, mould masters, dental models or production components, understanding 3D printing accuracy vs precision is essential.

Printing a large part is not simply printing a small part at a bigger scale. As the geometry grows, every weakness in the process becomes more visible.
