Upload your CAD files and share your material, size, quantity, tolerance, surface finish, color, application, and inspection requirements. Our engineers will review your project and provide material recommendations, DFM feedback, lead time, and quotation details.
We accept common 3D model formats including STL, STEP, STP, OBJ, IGES, SLDPRT, and 3MF. Technical drawings with tolerance, material, finish, quantity, and critical dimensions help us provide a more accurate quote.
Important design factors include wall thickness, layer lines, holes, clearances, support structures, part orientation, material selection, large part splitting, bonding areas, surface finish, and tolerance requirements.
Yes. FDM is widely used for assembly fixtures, inspection jigs, positioning tools, holders, guides, guards, templates, and other production support parts because it is cost-effective and fast to produce.
Yes. FDM parts can be support-removed, sanded, painted, vapor smoothed for selected materials, fitted with threaded inserts, bonded, assembled, inspected, and packaged based on project requirements.
FDM can be stronger for some functional plastic parts depending on material, infill, wall thickness, and print orientation. SLA usually offers smoother surface finish and finer detail, while FDM is often better for larger thermoplastic prototypes.
FDM is better for large, cost-effective plastic prototypes, jigs, fixtures, and practical design validation. SLA is better for smooth, clear, high-detail resin prototypes and appearance models.
Typical FDM lead time is 2–5 days for many plastic prototype parts. Larger parts, special materials, high quantity, sanding, painting, inserts, assembly, or inspection may require additional time.
Typical FDM tolerance is around ±0.2–0.5 mm, depending on part size, geometry, material, wall thickness, print orientation, support structures, and post-processing requirements.
Yes. FDM is suitable for large plastic housings, covers, panels, mockups, fixtures, and prototype parts. Oversized parts can also be reviewed for splitting, bonding, sanding, painting, and assembly solutions.
Common FDM materials include PLA, ABS, PETG, Nylon, Polycarbonate / PC, carbon fiber filled filaments, and other thermoplastic materials depending on strength, heat resistance, stiffness, cost, and application requirements.
FDM 3D printing is best for large plastic prototypes, concept models, jigs, fixtures, tooling aids, functional testing parts, housings, covers, panels, and low-cost design validation samples.
