3D printing processes
Get help selecting the right process
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)
6 day lead time
SLS is used for both prototyping and small-batch production of functional plastic parts with good mechanical properties.
MultiJet Fusion (MJF)
6 day lead time
HP's Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) can be used for both prototyping and small-batch-production of functional plastic parts.
Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS)
10 day lead time
DMLS produces high performance, end-use metal 3D printed parts for industrial applications in the aerospace, automotive and medical industries.
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)
4 day lead time
FDM is the most widely available 3D printing process, mainly used for low-cost prototyping and design verification with very fast turn around times.
Stereolithography (SLA)
4 day lead time
SLA is most suitable for visual applications where an injection mold-like, smooth surface finish, and a high level of feature detail are required.

alex, bognor regis
Standard PLA, FDM
“After a long career as a professional software developer, this was my first foray into 3D printing. Although the component looked straightforward, in fact it raised several manufacturing issues, having a long thin and relatively large vertical flat panel at right angles to the base, with overhangs. Alex was not only extremely helpful and managed to overcome the manufacturing issues raised, but was also very good at explaining the problems that occurred with this item and why. And he not only sent me the final finished item, but also earlier failed versions so that I could see and understand the initial problems. I would recommend him to anyone for his exemplary professionalism. After this initial experience, I would always choose to use an experienced expert like Alex, rather than get into printing the item myself. 3D design and modelling is one thing, but understanding the possible manufacturing issues and how to surmount them is quite another.”
