3D Prototyping
Stage 1.
We start with ideas, sketches, files or even scan existing parts. We can then design a concept to bring to the next stage of the 3D process.
.
Stage 2.
A 3D Model is designed and built in 3D Software by our product design team.
Stage 3.
We 3D print and hand finish your prototype. We use a variety of materials and finishes and moulds can also be created.

OUR 3D PRINTERS
STRATASYS OBJET: POLYJET
Ideal for functional prototypes, highest accuracy, injection moulded finish.
3D SYSTEMS PROJET: COLOUR JET PRINTING (CJP)
High resolution true colour prints.
ASIGA: SLA PRINTING
Ideal for medical devices where precision is critical.
FDM Printing:
Many materials and colours can be printed on our FDMs printers.
We have a bank of FDM printers to assist in speedy production runs, they provide great detail and accuracy. We also have large format FDM 3D printers, which print on a large scale in fine detail and finish.
