In recent years, significant research has been conducted on the development of 3D-printed optical components, mounts, and housings, demonstrating their potential in optical applications. This paper emphasizes the importance of integrating robust design principles into the development of 3D-printed optomechanical systems. By addressing key challenges such as print quality, process stability, and the high sensitivity of optical systems, we aim to identify systematic solutions that enhance the reliability and performance of printed optomechanical components.
