How thin can we go - and why thinner isn't always better

Wall-Thickness Range
ParameterValue
General structural wall thickness0.4-2.5mm
Reinforcing rib wall thickness40-50% of nominal, capped at 60%
Boss sidewall thicknesswithin 50% of nominal
Adjacent wall-thickness variation≤ 1.5×; beyond requires dedicated review
Below 0.4mm, wall thickness lacks sufficient support during debinding, and the green body deforms under its own weight at high temperature. For thin walls under impact loading, closed-loop cross-sections (tubes/ovals) are noticeably more reliable than open cross-sections (C-/U-shapes).
