Plastic 3d Printing

Plastic 3D Printing is one of the fastest and most cost-effective methods available for the iterative design, prototyping, and production of custom parts. Rather than the material being removed from stock, as historically done with subtractive manufacturing processes such as Cnc Machining, 3D Printing works by repeatedly layering small amounts of plastic to build a design from the ground up.

First, when choosing to use plastic to 3D print your project, you will quickly notice that you have the choice among various plastic materials with different properties.

Pros
Affordable to the average person
Fast prototyping
Creates sturdy and lightweight parts
Reduced waste compared to Injection Molding
Ability to print on demand
Fast production for small parts runs
Unlimited designs can be made
Excellent for creating custom products
Easy to access for small businesses and individuals
Not limited to plastics, metals are also used
Machines available on levels from hobby to industrial
Promotes creativity and learning in children

3D Printing Applications for Plastics

Prototyping
Solutions that streamline workflow to accelerate digital design, create appearance models and build functional prototypes.
Production
Additive manufacturing at scale for plastic parts is now a reality, with the productivity, durability, repeatability, and lower total cost of operation manufacturers require.
Investment Casting
Accelerate the delivery of high-quality metal products and casting patterns with 3D printed wax and SLA casting patterns.
Jigs and Fixtures
Produce accurate jigs and fixtures with 3D printing to provide a fast and cost-effective way to advance your manufacturing process.
