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)

Our 3D Printing service has been rated 4.8/5
Over 1,189 customers in Waterloo satisfied with our local 3D printing service.
“I am extremely satisfied ! I ordered just 1 print, but I received 4 copies. I had some fears in advance. I wasn't sure if the printer would be able to print all details that I had added to my sketchup design. (some of which were smaller than 1mm ). But I am really impressed. I expected the order by december 31th, but already devlivered december 24th (before christmas !!) That's super. No words! Deeply impressed.”
