When designing a complex device, consisting of many parts, it is convenient to use 3D printing to check the assemblability, functionality of the latches, gaps. This part is used in an electronic device by snapping into the main body. Since there are no planes in the geometry of the part – the choice was made in favor of SLA printing technology. The supports were placed on the front side in order to remove traces after they were removed by grinding.
