White Paper – The Accuracy Myth

Users of additive manufacturing often confuse resolution, the measure of how small or fine a 3D printer can deposit material, with accuracy. However, this is not a true relationship.

Accuracy refers to how well a part conforms to its design parameters and whether that precision is repeatable. In this white paper, you’ll learn key additive manufacturing considerations such as:

• Resolution and the role it plays
• Accuracy and why it’s important
• Repeatability and the significance of material stability
