How fine can you print with these printers?

can you print a 1.5mm ring in one colour and 2mm ring over the top of it making a ring within a ring!

Im sure im going to get “DONT KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN”

If you mean a 1.5mm DIAMETER ring and a 2mm DIAMETER ring…no, this won’t be possible / look very good on an FDM machine. Otherwise…I’m confused :slight_smile:

Not on a fdm machine but maybe on sla printers but i’m not sure. And the only printers i know that can print in two colours are dual extruder fdm machines.

Hopes this helps

Even on SLA, this would be pushing it. The usual minimal feature width on those is around 0.3mm, so with a 1.5mm diameter ring this is just one pass with the laser…look at really hard and it will disintegrate before your eyes :slight_smile:

I’m still confused by the OP’s request for such a tiny part.

The short answer is it is possible. Happen to have a .STL to look at for further confirmation that we’re on the same page?

they are electronics Parts, that i am trying to figure out if it will work due to how good the conductive PLA is, how fine the printer can do it, as the part is 3cm^2 (Smaller if i can)
I dont mind making it 0.9mm than 1mm
