printed pin and hole clearance budget calculator online

Use printed pin and hole clearance budget online for nominal pin mm, nominal hole mm, pin bias mm, hole bias mm. Geometric or extrusion estimate; printer behavior and material properties must be measured. Example values are not recommended machine settings.

How to use it

Enter nominal pin mm. Set nominal hole mm, pin bias mm, hole bias mm. Select Calculate and check the labeled output. Copy or download the JSON result.

Options and example settings

OptionChoices / valueExample default
nominal pin mmMain input. Positive values. 10
nominal hole mmOption. Positive values. 10.3
pin bias mmOption. Signed finite values. 0.1
hole bias mmOption. Signed finite values. -0.1

Calculation method

diametral_clearance_mm = nominal_hole_mm+hole_bias_mm-nominal_pin_mm-pin_bias_mm (^ means exponentiation; trig functions ending in d use degrees).

Worked examples

Apply printed pin and hole clearance budget to the case below, keeping the displayed units and assumptions. Geometric or extrusion estimate; printer behavior and material properties must be measured. Example values are not recommended machine settings.

Printed Pin and Hole Clearance Budget — worked case

Settings: nominal hole mm: 10.3; pin bias mm: 0.1; hole bias mm: -0.1

Input:

10

Calculated result for these inputs:

Output:

{
  "diametral_clearance_mm": 0.10000000000000106
}

Choose the right tool

Match the calibration convention to the firmware and slicer. Rotation distance and steps per millimeter change in opposite directions. Flow, shrinkage and fit estimates require measurements from the actual machine and material.

Limitations and common mistakes

  • Geometric or extrusion estimate; printer behavior and material properties must be measured. Example values are not recommended machine settings.
  • Use the displayed unit in every field. Ratios and percentages are different inputs; percent fields use values such as 25 rather than 0.25.

Frequently asked questions
