Short answers on how Complete Fabrication works. If yours is not here, call +44 1223 836837 or email Info@compfab.co.uk.
Complete Fabrication makes prototypes and low-volume parts using SLA and Carbon DLS 3D printing, CNC machining, vacuum casting, painting and finishing. It has traded from Whittlesford, near Cambridge, since 1986.
SLA parts are ready in 24 hours as standard, with no rush fee. Most jobs can be delivered next day.
We quote fast. If you need a quote quickly, let us know and we will do our best to match your timings.
Same day delivery to the local area, overnight delivery across the UK, or collection from the workshop.
SLA parts hold ±0.15 mm. Vacuum casting holds ±0.5 mm on most dimensions. CNC machining tolerances depend on the part and are agreed at quote.
