Minimum letter size for raised text on SLS nylon parts
m
I’m working on a medical device enclosure that needs raised lettering (product name and serial number) on the lid, printed in SLS nylon. The letters are around 2 mm high with a stroke width of about 0.4 mm.
Has anyone tried something similar? Do raised letters at that size stay legible and durable after sterilization cycles (like autoclaving), or would it be better to go with engraved text instead? I hope you can help.
