Warnings & risks

Heads up
  • Low volume — injection mold tooling cost too high
    Volume · rule R013 · High confidence

Missions to level up

0/18 XP
  • Improve wall-thickness consistency
    medium·Walls between 1.8–2.4 mm reduce sink and warp risk.
    +6 XP
  • Reduce undercut complexity
    hard·Each undercut you remove drops tooling cost ~12%.
    +5 XP
  • Specify medical-grade finish
    easy·Pick antimicrobial coating or smooth medical finish to align quotes.
    +3 XP
  • Confirm regulatory needs
    easy·FDA Class II and IEC 60601 paths unlock different materials.
    +4 XP
