Rules to create 3D Printed Jewellery:

Size does matter

Technology no matter advanced comes with its sets of limitations. There is a maximum printing size. Gold, Silver, Bronze and Bronze with a size of 88x88x125 mm can only be printed. However, for pieces that are bigger, then the material will vary.

Thickness

It is imperative to keep in mind the thickness. The distance between surface of the model and the sheer surface opposite it, is referred to as the Minimum Wall Thickness. The size for materials like Gold, Silver, Bronze and Bronze is 0.6mm and 0.8mm. For fragile parts the thickness needs to be 1mm.

The Small Details

For hollow models there needs to be more than one release hole. Exact size depends on the design and size of the model. The sizing could be set to 1.5mm as the minimum.

Groupism

While uploading the design into the software the file should contain only one object.

3D printed jewellery is found favourable in the Jewellery Industry due to the speed with which multiple designs can be made. Apart from the technology, jewellery designers need to think beyond the conventional materials like gold, silver, bronze and brass.
