Our 3D Printing Technologies

FDM/FFF

Fused Deposition Modeling/Fused Filament Fabrication is used to 3D print PLA, PETG and ABS plastic materials.

  • FDM/FFF Fused Filament Fabrication or FDM Fused Deposition Modeling is the most common type of material extrusion technology. A corn-based filament feeds through an extruder where a heated nozzle extrudes the material. FFF/FDM is well-suited for early prototypes, communication models, and form studies.

    Materials available: PLA, PETG, ABS.

SLA/DLS/DLP

Stereolithography, Digital Light Synthesis & Digital Light Processing are used to 3D print a variety of standard and industrial resins.

  • SLA Stereolithography uses a laser to cure specified areas of the print, which solidifies to form a hardened resin part. SLA delivers high-resolution parts with a smooth surface finish perfect for high-fidelity presentation models, precision parts, and mold-making.

    Materials available: Standard resin, durable resin, elastic resin, high temp resin, flexible resin, tough resin, castable wax resin.

HP MJF

Multi-Jet Fusion is used to 3D print nylon PA11, PA12, TPU, and glass-filled varieties of each.

  • Hewlett Packard’s MJF Multi-Jet Fusion delivers industrial grade Nylon parts with full-color capabilities. MJF applies a fusing agent to specific print areas while applying a detailing agent to give crisp edges to parts. Nylon is known for its durability and high impact resistance.

    Materials available: Nylon PA11, Nylon PA12, Glass-filled nylon, TPU.

SLS

Selective Laser Sintering is used to 3D print nylon PA11, PA12, Polypropylene (PP), and TPU.

  • SLS Selective Laser Sintering uses a laser to sinter small particles of polymer powder into a solid part. SLS is known for its low-cost, high-productivity manufacturing capabilities for small-batch manufacturing.

    Materials available: Nylon PA11, Nylon PA12, TPU, EPU.

DLMS/SLM

Direct Laser Metal Sintering and Selective Laser Melting are used to 3D print a variety metals, such as steel, aluminum, and brass.

  • Metal 3D printing offers a range of production methods, such as, DMLS Direct Metal Laser Sintering, SLM Selective Laser Melting, and Binder Jetting that deliver strength and durability.

    Materials available: Steel, Stainless Steel 316L, Stainless Steel 17-4PH, Bronze, Aluminum, and Titanium.

Full Color 3D Printing

Multi or full color 3D printing can be achieved through a variety of process such as MJF, dyeing, sandstone, and FDM.

  • Full color 3D printing delivers hyper-realistic, full CMYK color capabilities for Nylon parts. The vivid coloring is applied during the printing process which eliminates the need for painting.

    Materials available: Polyjet, resin, PA12, PA11, Sandstone.
