3D Printing With Metals (DMLS)

The direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) process is sometimes referred to as metal 3d printing or a metal 3d printer. DMLS uses a laser beam to melt 20-40 micron layers of metal powder on top of each other to create metal parts. This additive process is similar to 3d printing, although metal powder is spread across a build platform and melted instead of a plastic filament being extruded.

Parts created using DMLS are fully dense metal with excellent mechanical properties. Other metal 3d printing processes exist which use a binder, although they produce parts which are not fully dense metal. The DMLS process can produce complex geometries which traditional CNC machining processes are not capable of.

HDPE – High Density Poly-Ethylene

HDPE – High Density Poly-Ethylene is a polyethylene thermoplastic made from petroleum. HDPE is well known for its large strength to density ratio.

HDPE Features
High-density polyethylene is denser than most other polymer plastics, namely low-density polyethylene. Since high-density polyethylene is so durable and chemically non-reactive, it has numerous applications in various industries.

HDPE – High Density Poly-Ethylene Product Container Examples
HDPE Container Examples

HDPE Possible Uses
High Density Poly-Ethylene is commonly used in the production of plastic bottles, corrosion-resistant piping, geomembranes, and plastic lumber. HDPE is commonly recycled, and has the number “2” as its recycling symbol. Also used with packaging containers, such as milk and laundry detergent bottles, as well as plastic grocery bags.

HDPE Possible Disadvantages
Products made of high-density polyethylene do not readily biodegrade in landfills.

SOFTPLA – Soft Polylactic Acid

SOFTPLA – Soft Polylactic Acid is PLA but more soft and less rigid when 3D printing.
Still PLA but polymerized in a different way and though with different physical characteristics.

SOFTPLA Soft Polylactic Acid
3D Printed Flexible

SOFTPLA Features
Not as elastic as rubber but comparable to any other soft plastic. It’s elasticity is incredible, “you can’t do things like this with rigid PLA or with ABS.

SOFTPLA Possible Disadvantages
You need a higher printing temperature, and you have to print much slower and it is more sticky to the NOPI tape. Printed on glass, without headbed, it sticks perfectly and is easy to remove.

Rapid Prototyping for Inventors

CAD computer assisted design
CAD – Computer Assisted Design for Prototyping

3D Rapid Prototype Printing

The 3D Prototyping is designed to provide the means for all companies, inventors and entrepreneurs who are interested in creating a manufacturable product to validate and test their ideas with a cost effective prototype prior to short or full production runs.

3D / CAD Drawings for Rapid Prototyping

3D drawing technology enables 3D printers to create fully functional prototypes for product testing and investor awareness.

3D prototyping design can help build;

Many plastic parts

Plastic mock-ups

Custom Housings

Specialty Products

Medical & Health Related Devices

3D printing and rapid prototyping is a reliable “Rapid Prototyping” source for many product development projects.


We can now make your invention, idea, drawing, concept into a fully functional low cost prototype in a couple of days.

PC – Polycarbonate

Polycarbonate (PC) material is formed by a condensation polymerization resulting in a carbon that is bonded to three different types of oxygen. PC is known by the trademarked names Lexan, Makrolon, Makroclear and others, are a particular group of thermoplastic polymers. They are easily worked, molded, and thermoformed. Because of these properties, polycarbonates have found many applications in 3D printing.

PC, Polycarbonate 3D Printing
PC Possible Uses
Polycarbonate may be used in electrical and electronic applications, automotive applications, general purpose, medical/healthcare applications, housings, appliances, sporting goods, business equipment, industrial applications and electrical parts.

PC Probable Features
Polycarbonate can be flame retardant, good mold release, lubricated, high flow, good UV resistance, general purpose, good process-ability, high impact resistance, good dimensional stability and high heat resistance.

PC Possible Disadvantages
Polycarbonate may be subject to stress cracking, fairly high processing temperatures required, degrades upon extended residence time in processing equipment, chemical resistance is only fair, aromatic sensitivity.
