Hi All,

Searching all around for a company to print an object, about 3.6 ✕ 4.8 ✕ 18.8 cm, a scale model with many small detail features.

I can tell the Projet captured most of the details, but still, not a 100%.

I heard the Projet 3500 can achieve better resolution then the 7000. can anyone confirm that?

any thoughts about printing methods?

a smooth surface, is also essential as the model used for RTV molds

I have printed in the past similar objects so i know 3D printers can achieve such resolutions.(my previous supplier gone out of business)

Im a bit frustrated, any thoughts would help

Thank you

Hi there!

I can confirm that the Projet 3500 can achieve a better resolution than the 7000.

We have a Projet 3510 HD Plus available at our hub (https://www.3dhubs.com/new-york/hubs/catalyst-space) and have printed several small and large high detail parts.

We find that the surface finish on our parts is comparable to the surface of a sheet of printing paper. With a bit more post processing we can get the surface completely smooth.

Hope this helps! Feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions.
