What are the design requirements for threads and screws in SLM printing?

Last updated on Apr 02, 2026

For SLM printed metal threads to ensure smooth assembly and durable industrial use, the design needs to meet a minimum pitch of 0.6mm and a minimum profile angle of 20°. Standard metric fine and coarse threads can be stably formed on metal parts, with no sliding tooth issue during repeated screwing.
