Frequently Asked Questions About Functional Parts
Engineering specifications, achievable tolerances, and manufacturing workflows for Functional Parts.
What is the turnaround time for Functional Parts?
Turnaround for Functional Parts is on-demand production schedule. Standard prototype runs typically dispatch within 3 to 5 business days following CAD validation. International express air freight delivers to North America and Europe in an additional 3 to 7 business days.
What manufacturing tolerances does Layerium Labs achieve for Functional Parts?
Standard achievable tolerances are ±0.2 mm (or ±0.2%) for industrial FDM systems and ±0.05 mm to ±0.1 mm for high-resolution stereolithography (SLA). Critical fit dimensions are verified during our complimentary upfront Design for Additive Manufacturing (DFAM) inspection.
What CAD formats are supported for Functional Parts?
Layerium Labs accepts standard engineering CAD formats including STEP (.step, .stp), STL (.stl), 3MF (.3mf), and Parasolid (.x_t) files up to 50MB. Native STEP or 3MF formats are recommended to preserve true geometric surfaces and assembly orientation.
How does Layerium Labs protect client intellectual property and CAD designs?
All client CAD geometries, technical drawings, and project specifications are held under strict confidentiality. We execute bilateral Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) upon request and store files in private, access-controlled repositories. Your designs are never shared or used for AI model training.
