What is 3D Printing?
3D printing is the automatic construction of physical objects using solid freeform fabrication or additive manufacturing technology. Additive manufacturing begins with a virtual design from a CAD (computer aided design) or animation modeling software. Through software applications you are able to manipulate the design and create successive layers until the model is fully rendered.
There is very little deviation from the virtual model, and its soon to be physical counterpart. The next step in the process involves a rapid prototyping machine. Additive manufacturing technology will permit the 3D printer to use the CAD data in a reconstruction process. Using the physical contraints set by the software, the 3D printer lays down layers of liquid, powder, or sheet material in a series of cross sections, to build up the model. These cross sections correspond to the ones in the CAD data, and together will form the prototype exactly the way it was designed on the screen. The advantage to additive fabrication is the ability to create almost any shape or geometric feature, meaning the only limitations you have, exist in your mind.
If you are ready to begin the 3D printing process today, give us a call, and if not, call us anyway so we can offer our assistance in design and development.

Why do I need 3D Printing Services?
In the product development cycle their is little room for error. 3D printing allows for catching any imperfections in a product prior to it reaching the market. The benefits of assets invested in research and development far outweigh the potential losses in recalls or defects. Even a simple idea can begin to take form with 3D printing. Everyone has the ability to improve the world around them, whether they have a simple idea that is blossoming in their mind, or a full fledged product waiting to be developed. 3D printing helps you to take that process to the next level. Being able to hold your concept in your hands, with moving parts leaves for exponential analysis to be performed, ensuring that when your product does reach the market, it is customer friendly and impactful.
Quite often the training needed, and the costs associated, with an in-house 3D printer cannot be justified unless volume exists. At 3D Printing Services Canada, our engineering staff are able to deliver prototypes suited to their customers needs, with their expertise and skills being utilized. Economically, for single product development, 3D printing services are much more effective. Having trained professionals at your disposal can be much more beneficial then having to go through the training process. Our engineering support staff are highly educated with years of experience, and always deliver in a time sensitive manor.
3D Printing really knows no bounds, there is a wide range of applications including:
CAD Data verification
Operational Model testing
Trade Show Models
Manufacturing production quality parts in relatively small numbers
Production of complex shapes for fine arts exhibitions
