Design for 3D Printing

Not every project starts with a ready to print file. We offer design services to help turn ideas, sketches, or existing parts into reliable 3D printable models.

Our focus is on practical design for real world printing, not just on screen models.


What we can help with

We offer design services for:
• creating printable 3D models from ideas or sketches
• modifying or repairing existing 3D files
• designing functional parts and prototypes
• preparing files for reliable 3D printing
• adjusting designs for strength, fit, or material choice
• 3D scanning of existing parts for redesign or printing

If you already have a file but are unsure if it will print correctly, we can review it and advise.


3D Scanning

In some cases, scanning an existing part is the best starting point.
We offer 3D scanning services to capture the shape of physical objects and convert them into digital files.

Scanning is commonly used for:
• replacement parts
• modifying existing components
• creating a base model for further design work

Scanned files usually require cleanup or redesign before printing.
All scanning work is quoted after reviewing the part and requirements.


How the process works

  1. You send us details about your project or part
  2. We review the design or scanning requirements
  3. Pricing is confirmed before any work begins
  4. Design or scanning work is completed
  5. Files are prepared for printing or production

Design and scanning work is quoted separately from printing.


Design and scanning pricing

Design and scanning work varies depending on complexity, size, and required accuracy.
All pricing is confirmed before any work starts.

If your project includes design, scanning, and printing, we can manage the full process from start to finish.


Before getting in touch

To help us understand your project, please include:
• reference photos, sketches, or existing files if available
• approximate size or measurements
• intended use of the part
• any deadlines or special requirements

This helps us scope the work accurately and avoid delays.
