Fast Turnaround
Get prototypes within days not weeks with our 3D services, or invest in in-house 3D printing and have prototypes ready in hours.
Reduce Costs
Reduce cost by verifying designs prior to investing in expensive tooling and molds.
Low Volume Production
Create small batches of end-use parts to test new products or go to marcket with a product before investing in costly molds and tooling.
Iterative Design
Better products come from extensive testing and iteration, which is now faster and more cost effective.
Get started with 3D Services
If your not sure if 3D printing is for you, are just getting started, don’t print enough to justify in-house 3D printing, our just want us to take care of your 3D printing needs, then our 3D services is the place to go.

Concept models, useable prototypes, and more
When designing a new product nothing helps maximize its potentials like haveing a real physical concept model and usable prototypes. Having a tangible part allows for a better understanding of what the final product will be like, meaning you can make more informed design changes and interactions. 3D printing allows for fast and cost effect early-stage product development allowing for faster development cycles and more design interactions resulting in a better end product.
End-use parts and production
3D printing can produce parts that are end-use allowing you to create fully functional prototypes effectively. In some cases, 3D printing may even be well suited for final production parts.
Take control with in-house 3D printing
If you are printing a lot it makes sense to bring 3D printing capabilities in-house to save time and money over using 3D print services.
Print in just a few clicks
With the Hydra Research plugin for Ultimaker Cura, choose from hundreds of specially designed material profiles to ensure you get great print results right out of the box without having to tweak any complicated parameters or settings.

Success stories in the product design industry
Jeff, the co-owner of ElementDriven, launched the company based on his Rear-Seat Floor-Latch Covers, a product that enables owners to get full use of their Element’s floor when they lift or remove their rear seats. Manufactured out of heavy-duty 16-gauge steel, they maximize the cargo space of the Element by securely leveling the floor to make it usable for transporting furniture, pets, kids, and more.
