SLM- Metal- Printing- Guide
Complete SLM metal 3D printing design rules: supported/unsupported wall thickness, minimum hole sizes, embossed/engraved details, tolerances (±0.2mm or 0.2%), support structure guidelines, orientation strategies, and self-supporting channel designs for AlSi10Mg and 316L stainless steel.

Design-considerations
This guide covers STL file setup, common mesh errors, and key design rules like wall thickness, overhangs, and tolerances. It also provides material-specific design tables for SLA, SLS, MJF, and SLM technologies—including minimum wall thickness, hole sizes, and support needs—to help prevent print failures and optimize part quality.
