With 3D Printing we can provide rapid prototyping or final solutions for you ideas, or products. 3D Printing is the future of product development for all plastic shapes, which can be assembled together to more complex (possible moving) prototype or product. To learn more about 3D Printing please see Wikipedia.
To get more information and pricing, please email us your 3D computer model. We accept most file types, however we would prefer a STL (.stl), OBJ (.obj), STEP (.stp) or IGES (.igs).
We can provide you with 3D prints via Stereolithography (SLA). From our experience SLA 3D Printing is the best 3D Printing technology. Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 3D prints are high precision, but are weak and generally not suitable for function testing. In the past we have used FDM 3D Printing for function testing, due to its high strength. However SLA is just as strong as FDM, if not stronger with some resins. The only issue with SLA is it is more costly.
In summary SLA 3D Printing is high resolution, high strength & precision, and outstanding surface finish!
NOTE: We can create bigger parts, via splitting and gluing.
0.05mm or 0.025mm (however we generally do flexible at 0.1mm).
NOTE: We can do higher resolutions, if you would like to save on time and machine-hour costs.
@ ~65 psi | 73°C |
@ ~260 psi | 58°C |
@ ~65 psi | 289°C |
@ ~260 psi | 130°C |
We can also provide you with 3D prints via Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printers, which is great for quick validation of your physical design. The primary issue with these prints is shrinkage and warpage can occur on models and is purely geometry dependent.
NOTE: We can create bigger parts, via splitting and plastic welding or gluing.
0.1mm (however we generally do flexible at 0.25mm).
NOTE: We can do higher resolutions, if you would like to save on time and machine-hour costs.
Other materials/colours are possible, but adds lead time.
To 3D print an object, a 3D computer model is required. You have three options:
Our capacity: 1x SLA 3D printer and 3x FDM 3D printers.
Our printing prices are based on three factors:
Our minimum order is $180 + GST, mostly due to the labour involved for support material removal and hand finishing if/where required.
Are you looking for a one-off part to replace something that is broken, or no longer on the market? Unfortunately, we are confident that in most cases 3D Printing services is not financially feasible.
Generally 3D Printing is used for new product development prototyping. And therefore is a cheaper alternative to production methods such as plastic injection moulding, blow moulding, etc.
