3D Printing

test, REplicate or manufacture your designs

We use FDM and DLP 3D printing technology to create affordable, strong and durable parts for hobbyist projects, prototyping, production and to replace old industrial components.

What is needed?: The 3D/CAD file of the part in a STL, STEP, SAT, IGES or PARASOLID format. We can also create the 3D/CAD file for you.

ABS Plastic

ABS is our material of choice because it is strong, flexible, durable and cost effective.

It can withstand temperatures up to 100°C, can be sanded, painted and glued with superglue or epoxy.

TPU/Rubber

TPU is a tough and flexible rubber with a shore hardness of 95A.

The flexibility depends on the thickness of the parts. Small chunky parts are rigid but thin parts have good flexibility.

Polycarbonate (PC)

PC is our strongest and most heat resistant plastic that produces parts with glossy finish.

It can withstand temperatures up to 135°C, can be sanded, painted but cannot be glued.

Resolution

The resolution refers to the height of each layer when printing the parts:

0.1mm - 0.15mm: Used for small and thin walled parts.
0.2mm: Most common setting.
0.25mm - 0.3mm: Used on larger parts.

Resin (DLP) Printing

DLP printing makes use of a resin that is cured with UV light. It can produce high quality parts with good durability.

Ideal for fine details such as figurines and injection moulded parts with small features.

Not all designs are suitable for DLP printing such as large chunky parts.
