Design details: Tensile test specimen — MJF PA12
MJF polymer design review
MJF is a powder-bed polymer process suited to functional prototypes and repeated parts. For a similar design, consider material selection, local wall transitions, small openings and access for depowdering. Define mating dimensions on a drawing and check assemblies after the final finish, since smoothing and coating can influence clearances. A gallery image does not identify the exact polymer grade or demonstrate mechanical test results.

Bead blasting can even out accessible surfaces, but the media and process must match the substrate. Protect precision interfaces and inspect narrow recesses for retained material. Define the intended texture with a sample where the visible appearance is important.

Upload a STEP file for solid geometry or a high-resolution STL/3MF mesh for sculptural forms. Include overall dimensions, quantity, intended use and the faces or details that matter most. Add a drawing for mating interfaces and a color or finish reference for visual models. AIHFabs can review the geometry and manufacturing options before production.
