3D Printing FAQ
Common questions about our 3D printing services and technologies.
Which 3D printing technology is best for my project?
It depends on your requirements. SLA delivers the smoothest surface finish (Ra 1–3 µm) for visual prototypes and dental models. SLS produces strong, support-free PA12/PA11 parts for functional testing. FDM is the most cost-effective option for large-format parts and rapid concept iteration. MJF (HP Multi Jet Fusion) is the go-to choice for bridge production — it delivers near-isotropic PA12 parts with consistent mechanical properties, and cost per part drops significantly at volumes above 200 units ($8–20/ea). DMLS produces fully dense metal parts for robotics, medical, and industrial end-use applications.
What materials can you 3D print?
We offer 101+ materials across five technologies: SLA resins (Standard, Tough, Flexible, High-Temp, Castable), SLS/MJF nylon powders (PA12, PA11, PA12-GF, PA12-CF, PA12-GB, TPU, PP), FDM thermoplastics (PLA, ABS, PETG, Nylon, PC, PEEK, PEI/Ultem), and DMLS metal powders (Ti-6Al-4V, 316L Stainless, 17-4 PH, Inconel 625/718, AlSi10Mg).
What are your 3D printing tolerances and accuracy?
Tolerances vary by technology and part geometry. SLA: ±0.13 mm (±0.005 in.) standard. SLS: ±0.25 mm (±0.010 in.) or ±0.2% of nominal dimension, whichever is greater. FDM: ±0.5 mm (±0.020 in.) desktop, ±0.13 mm (±0.005 in.) industrial. MJF: ±0.20 mm (±0.008 in.) standard, ±0.10 mm (±0.004 in.) achievable. DMLS: ±0.10 mm (±0.004 in.) standard. Tighter tolerances available on request with secondary CNC machining or CMM verification.
Do you provide post-processing and finishing services?
Yes. We offer comprehensive post-processing: support removal, bead blasting, sanding (up to 400-grit), vapor smoothing, painting, dyeing (MJF/SLS), plating, thread tapping, heat-set inserts, and full assembly. DMLS metal parts can receive stress-relief annealing, HIP (Hot Isostatic Pressing), and CNC finish-machining to Ra 0.4–1.6 µm (16–63 µin.). Parts ship ready-to-use.
What file formats do you accept for 3D printing?
We accept STL, OBJ, 3MF, PLY and native CAD files (STEP, IGES, SolidWorks, Fusion 360). For STL files, we recommend 0.1 mm chord deviation for optimal mesh quality. We review every file for printability and will notify you of any wall-thickness, overhang, or mesh issues before quoting.
Can you handle both prototyping and production volumes?
Yes — from single prototypes to production runs of 10,000+ units. MJF is particularly well-suited for bridge production: per-part costs drop to $8–20 at 200+ pieces, with near-isotropic PA12 mechanical properties and consistent batch-to-batch quality. SLS handles 1–1,000 piece runs efficiently. For metal, DMLS serves low-volume end-use parts (1–100 pcs) in robotics, medical, and tooling applications.
