Ideal Materials for High-Volume 3D Printing
General Use
Prototyping, concept models, sales models, affordable functional-use parts, production runs, translucent parts, flexible parts, food-safe products, and moderately strong parts.
Sustainable
Sustainable materials are either made to biodegrade, with recycled materials, or with intentional carbon-reducing practices and recyclable components such as a cardboard filament spool.
Carbon Filled
PA-CF
Carbon fiber-filled filaments offer improved strength and toughness, as well as an appealing matte finish. It is ideal for functional-use parts that require impact strength, high performance, and a sleek look.
Engineering
Production runs, durable, impact resistant, stiff/rigid, UV resistance, chemical resistance, high/low temperature resistance, fire resistance/flame retardant, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, ESD safe, living hinges.
ARtistic
PLA-Silk, PLA-Metallic, PLA-Color Change,
PLA-Wood
Marketing models, sales models, trophies, awards, tradeshow giveaways, retail items, consumer goods, and artistic projects.

The Four Stage Process
Scope of Work & Approval
We will examine the customer's 3D design or concept for feasibility and to ensure it aligns with our capabilities. The customer will share the key objectives, deliverables, budget, and deadlines if known.
The result is a scope of work including printing method(s), materials, final finishes, as well as any other necessary services such as 3D modeling or scanning. The scope of work is then used to determine estimates for production that are aligned with the project budget and timeline.
3D Design & Print Settings Testing
At this stage, we will need printable files. Depending on the scope of work, the customer will provide them, we will model them, or we will repair existing non-printable files provided. Once the print files are ready, we will begin dialing in print settings to optimize quality and output per file.
Print samples typically result from this stage, and we are happy to provide them to ensure everyone's expectations for the final product are aligned.
Pre-Production & Production
During the pre-production and production stages, many factors are considered in determining the number of machines to allocate to the project. Each machine is verified as a viable fit for the material, print settings, and geometry of the part before total allocation to the project.
A quality control plan is implemented to ensure the 3D prints are produced according to the agreed-upon expectations and to allow for early implementation of changes if necessary. Machine allocation is increased or decreased to allow us to meet deadlines with certainty.
3D Print Finishing & Fulfillment
If print finishing such as smoothing, painting, dying, assembly, or support removal is included in the scope of work, we will schedule these services to meet fulfillment dates. We maximize print finishing success by putting forethought into prior stages of modeling and print setting testing.
Once the parts are ready for shipping, we offer various shipping carriers such as UPS, FedEx, and USPS, in addition to courier service to Atlanta local locations, pick up service, and LTL for large items.
