Our Process
We start with your concept/model, and then we make it…
Digital
Part Analysis and Cost Estimates based on your model (STEP, or STL file).
- Optimize design and model using Design for Additive Manufacturing principles (DFAM).
Physical
Print cost effective prototypes for validation
Develop project plan and budget from prototype to scaled production
Strong
Select appropriate materials, platforms, and settings for fabrication
Post Processing of 3D printed parts
Work
Iterate process of design, print, and testing for functional validation
Develop Hybrid Manufacturing strategies for scaled production (as required)
Using this method, we deliver cost effective & functional commercial quality 3D printed parts!

Shawcor Case Study – Composite Printing
SHAWCOR (Oil & Gas Industry), used their Mark2 Composite (CFF) printer to create 53 unique 3D printed parts for replacement components on a pick & place machine in their Calgary Facility. They have easily paid for the printer itself with savings of over $27,000 CAD (~$20,000 USD) on replacement parts alone. Click to view PDF Article.
