PHOTOPOLYMER JETTING: PLAN DETAIL, SUPPORTS AND FINISHED-PART TESTS
Editable planning/verification record — Yenra
Updated: October 2, 2026
Article: https://yenra.com/photopolymer/

Purpose: Prepare a material-jetting quote and acceptance brief that distinguishes layer height, feature resolution, dimensional accuracy and final material behavior.
Intended reader: Designers and prototype buyers considering material-jetting parts.

HOW TO USE
Save a working copy. Enter the actual specification, units, assumptions and evidence references in each field. Preserve original observations and record changes. Have the responsible reviewer resolve missing or conflicting requirements before release. Examples below are fictional teaching inputs, not process settings or acceptance standards.

RECORD
1. Prototype purpose, model revision, units and assembly context:
   ____________________________________________________________

2. Printer, build mode, exact model and support materials:
   ____________________________________________________________

3. Required dimensions, tolerances and inspection datums in mm:
   ____________________________________________________________

4. Fine features and supported/cosmetic surface locations:
   ____________________________________________________________

5. Orientation, support access and proposed part splits:
   ____________________________________________________________

6. Manufacturer-approved support removal, conditioning and final finishing:
   ____________________________________________________________

7. Individual dimensional and functional results after finishing:
   ____________________________________________________________

8. Accepted parts, damaged parts, labor, repeat-build evidence and next action:
   ____________________________________________________________


WORKED EXAMPLE AND LIMITS
Fictional enclosure trial: hole-center spacing is specified as 40.00 +/- 0.15 mm after finishing. Results are 39.92, 40.08 and 40.21 mm. The first two lie within 39.85–40.15 mm; the third exceeds the upper limit by 0.06 mm. A nominal 0.016 mm build layer does not establish that spacing accuracy. Investigate geometry, orientation, finishing and measurement before repeating the trial.
