Rapid 3D prototyping


Rapid 3D prototyping in New Zealand is becoming a viable option for many prototyping applications.There are a multitude of materials and methods for achieving great aesthetic results and dimensionally accurate models. 3Design offers a full array of methods and materials for your 3Dprinting needs.

FDM (Fused deposit modelling)

FDM is an additives' manufacturing process where plastic filament is heated and extruded through a nozzle. This extruded plastic is precisely placed layer upon layer to create a 3 dimensional model. With a large amount of  materials available such as ABS, PLA, polycarbonate, polyamides, polystyrene, lignin, among many others, there are different trade-offs between strength and temperature properties.
Prototyping with materials like PLA can be used for lost-wax (investment) castings. Reducing mould manufacturing time by creating accurate models with the tree assembly in one process, removing the need to create individual art moulds getting your product to the market quicker with reduced cost. PLA is rigid and aesthetically smooth making it great for small end parts and prototype components that must not flex.
ABS plastic has great strength and flexibility for creating working prototypes. It has good impact strength and is dimensionally very accurate.
Maximum dimensions available: 508mm x 508mm x 457mm
3Design offers 3D print services in-house on a file by file basis. If you are a business, individual or student who is looking for a rapid prototyping service with quick turnaround and costs that won't break your budget, get in touch with us!
3Design can take 3D CAD files in .stl format, and turn them into solid objects. We work with architects, engineers, product designers, fashion designers and more... (the list is endless as people find new ways to use this technology) to make their designs come to life.
Our commitment to customers is guaranteeing you the best solution, at the lowest cost of ownership for your requirements along with the expertise to help develop and sustain your competitive edge. We pride ourselves on providing an unrivalled service in solution delivery and to enable rapid return on investment.
Whatever it is you need, 3Design can walk you through the procedures, give you sound advice and point you in the right direction. Whether it is finding a manufacturer for your prototype or just giving advice on how to develop an idea into an end product ready to sell, 3Design is here to help you!
We also provide a 3Dprinting bureau and 3Dprinters, as well as consumables, support and maintenance.
