Available equipment

Printer capacity for contract manufacturing runs.

Our production setup supports prototype samples, approved small-batch production, replacement parts, and repeat manufacturing work. The printers shown are just some of the machines available for contract manufacturing projects.

Repeatable print runsApproved files can be organized for more consistent future reorders.
Material-specific schedulingJobs are reviewed around material choice, surface expectations, strength needs, and delivery target.
Capability review

Every part has a purpose.

The quote process keeps the part purpose, material fit, surface expectations, and quantity tied together before printing starts.

File formatsSTL, STEP, 3MF, OBJ, and similar 3D model exports can be included with your quote request.
MaterialsPLA / PLA+, PETG / PCTG, TPU, ASA, and other job-specific FDM options can be reviewed based on the part goal.
FinishesStandard FDM prints show visible layer lines. Surface expectations are reviewed before production.
ProductionPrototype samples, approved production batches, rush requests, and repeat orders are quoted by job.
TurnaroundPrototype and small-batch timelines are confirmed before production begins.
Material direction

Choose material based on how the part will be used.

Material recommendations depend on strength, heat, outdoor exposure, flexibility, appearance, cost, and production quantity.

PLA / PLA+

Good for prototypes, display parts, low-heat indoor use, fit checks, and many sample products.

PETG / PCTG

Useful for tougher functional parts, moderate outdoor use, impact resistance, and practical components that need improved durability.

TPU

Flexible material for bumpers, pads, sleeves, grips, protectors, and parts that need controlled flex.

ASA

Good candidate for outdoor parts, UV exposure, and applications where PLA is not the right fit.

Quoting details

What affects price and lead time.

Pricing and lead time depend on the model, material, size, quantity, print time, support needs, post-print handling, rush needs, packing, and delivery method.

01

Part size and print time

Part size and print duration affect scheduling, production capacity, and final quote timing.

Size • Time
02

Material and strength needs

Heat, flexibility, UV exposure, and load concerns influence material choice and print settings.

Material • Use case
03

Support and cleanup

Parts that require heavy supports or detailed cleanup need more handling time.

Handling • Finish
04

Quantity and repeatability

Approved repeat parts can be organized for more efficient reorder planning and future production runs.

Batch • Reorder
05

Lead time, rush production, and shipping

Production windows, rush fees, packing needs, and customer-selected shipping speed are reviewed during quoting.
