Available Materials for Custom Parts
Plastics3D Printed Plastics
These are plastics where the final product is produced directly by a High-resolution 3D Printer - Laser Sintered Nylon - Acrylic Photopolymer Resin Mold Cast Resin Plastics These are plastics produced by casting the resin in a mold that has been created by a 3D Printer - Polyurethane Rigid Resins - Epoxy Resins - Polyester Resins - Dental Acrylic Resins Electroplated Plastics This is where we electroplate any of the above plastics or other non-conductive materials using a multi-step method to first make the plastic conductive and then plate with the metals below just like you would with a conductive part:

Metals3D Printed Stainless Steel
This is a type of stainless steel that is 3D Printed by fusing particles of stainless steel together with a laser, and then the whole piece is infused with bronze to create a metal that is almost as strong as pure stainless, with the same corrosion resistance, but without the cost of cast or machined stainless. Electroplated Stainless Steel This is where we take the 3D Printed Stainless Steel above and then electroplate it so it has the strength of stainless steel, but can look like any of the following metals:
Coming Soon:
Electroformed and Plated Copper & Zinc These materials are created by electroplating a very thick (1/8th inch)layer of either copper or zinc over a wax or plastic version of your part to give you a hollow metal part that can then be electroplated to look like any of the metals above. If strength is needed, the electroformed shell can be filled with either a very rigid and durable resin plastic or with a cheaper metal like lead or pewter. This creates a part that will give you almost the same strength as a solid metal part without the weight or cost investment casting, machining, or 3D Printed Stainless Steel. See more details and specifications below. |
RubbersCast Urethane and Silicone Rubbers
Currently we can not directly 3D Print rubbers with the durability and qualities we require for our products. However, we can print a mold using 3D Printed Plastics into which we can cast a variety of rubbers and silicones with a range of durometers, heat resistance, chemical resistance, etc. See more details and specifications below. |
Many More Materials Are Available
All of the materials below are ones that can't currently be made directly by a 3D printer, but can be used for your part by creating a mold or 'wax' on a 3D Printer and then casting your part using one of these materials.
