In recent years, interest in additive manufacturing has increased. To overcome challenges such as the correct use of the technology, guidelines are needed to help the user in the fabrication process. However, such guidance is not currently available for all applications. This paper dives into design methods in AM and their transfer to an application example in the field of medical technology. The aim of this paper is to analyse the transferability of a design method for vessel models to small vessel models. To this end, an initial printing study is carried out on simplified hollow structures.
