3D metal printing
Complex components that are difficult or impossible to manufacture with traditional methods — with lower material consumption and shorter lead times.
Material
Reduced material consumption
The material is only applied where it's needed – no chips, no waste.
Cheaper than CNC for small batches
Prototypes and small batches without tooling costs or fixtures.
FAQ
01How do I get a price for my part?
Upload your CAD file via our Direct Quote service to get a price immediately. However, you can also contact us for a manual quote
02Which metal should I choose?
Stainless steel is the first choice for most functional parts. Aluminum is suitable for weight-critical constructions, titanium provides the best strength-to-weight ratio and is biocompatible, tool steel withstands high wear, and brass/copper is chosen for conductivity. Unsure? Contact us and we will help you.
03When is 3D printing better than CNC machining?
3D printing excels in complex geometries & internal channels, lattice structures and organic shapes, as well as for prototypes. For simpler geometries and greater precision, our CNC milling & turning are often the right choice.
04Can you manufacture spare parts that are no longer available for purchase?
Yes, if you don't have a CAD file, we can also 3D-scan the existing part and create the necessary manufacturing data.
05Are 3D-printed metal parts as strong as traditionally manufactured ones?
Yes, the parts are solid metal and the mechanical properties are generally comparable to conventionally manufactured blanks. The properties depend on the choice of material
