Materials We Use

SP3D

2024-2025

We take pride in offering a wide range of high-quality materials to ensure the best results for your 3D printing and fabrication needs. Our materials are carefully selected for their performance, durability, and versatility. Below, you’ll find an overview of the materials we commonly use in our services.

PLA (Polylactic Acid)

A biodegradable thermoplastic derived from renewable resources like corn starch, PLA is perfect for prototypes and hobbyist projects. It’s easy to print, offers excellent detail, and is available in various colors.

ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene)

Known for its durability and impact resistance, ABS is ideal for functional prototypes and end-use parts. Its ability to withstand higher temperatures makes it suitable for applications that require toughness.

PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol)

Combining the best of both PLA and ABS, PETG is strong, flexible, and easy to print. It’s also food-safe and resistant to moisture, making it great for a wide variety of applications.

Nylon

Highly durable and flexible, Nylon is perfect for creating parts that need to withstand wear and tear. Its chemical resistance makes it a favorite in engineering and automotive applications.

TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane)

TPU is a flexible material that can withstand bending and stretching. It’s perfect for applications requiring elasticity, such as phone cases, seals, and gaskets.

Resins

For our SLA (Stereolithography) printing, we use high-quality resins that offer exceptional detail and surface finish. These resins can be tailored for specific properties like rigidity or flexibility, making them ideal for intricate designs.

Metal Filaments

For clients looking for a metallic finish, we offer metal-infused filaments. These materials allow you to achieve a unique aesthetic while maintaining the lightweight characteristics of plastic.

Composites

We also work with composite materials, combining the strength of carbon fiber or fiberglass with thermoplastics to create lightweight yet strong components suitable for advanced applications.

Wood Filaments

For a more natural look, our wood filaments blend PLA with actual wood fibers. This material offers a unique texture and finish, perfect for artistic projects or home decor items.

Laser Cutting Materials

In our laser cutting services, we utilize a variety of materials, including acrylic, wood, and metal sheets. Each material can be customized to meet your design specifications and requirements.
