Capabilities

Four ways to get a part made

One studio, four processes. Whichever suits the part, it is dimensionally inspected before it leaves the building.

  • FDM 3D printing

    Functional parts, jigs, enclosures, and larger volumes in engineering plastics — PLA, PETG, TPU, PC, ASA, ABS, and Fiber Reinforced.

    Layer
    0.1 mm onwards
    Tolerance
    ±0.2 mm
    Max build
    420 × 420 × 500 mm
  • SLA / MSLA resin

    Fine detail and smooth surfaces for small parts. Standard, water-washable, ABS-like, and tough resins.

    Layer
    0.025 – 0.2 mm
    Tolerance
    ±0.1 mm
    Max build
    330 × 185 × 400 mm
  • CAD services

    Design, modelling, and design-for-manufacture in SolidWorks, Fusion 360, and NX Siemens. DFM review and full GD&T stack.

    Exports
    STEP, IGES, STL, DXF
    Included
    DFM report
  • CNC prototyping

    Milling, turning and moulding in metals. Structural, functional, and end-use parts.

    Tolerance
    ±0.001 mm
    Batch
    1 to any quantity

† Achievable tolerance; varies with geometry, material, and part size. CNC figures are verified on a coordinate-measuring machine (CMM).

How it works

Three steps, every job

Feasibility is checked before anything is printed — not after a failed prototype.

  1. 01

    Briefing & Scoping

    Honest feedback on feasibility, material, and cost. DFM issues are flagged before printing starts, not after. 48-hour response, NDA available.

  2. 02

    Design & Modelling

    A sketch, photo, or rough dimensions become a parametric CAD model. Existing files are reviewed for printability and tolerances. You receive native CAD, STEP/IGES exports, drawings, and a DFM report — whether or not you print with us.

  3. 03

    Produce, Inspect & Deliver

    Every part is dimensionally inspected before it leaves the building. Not sampled — every one. A printed inspection report ships with the order.
