Industrial 3D printing services from our workshop near Cambridge: SLA, Carbon DLS, FDM and DLP, with next-day turnaround on most jobs, tolerances to ±0.15 mm and overnight delivery across the UK. Check form, fit and function early, so you learn faster and avoid costly decisions.
SLA delivers the detail. FDM handles the volume. We choose the route that fits the job.
SLA printing delivers the precision needed for medical devices and intricate assemblies. It produces clean, accurate parts with fine detail and a high-quality surface finish. For transparent parts, see clear 3D printing.
Used where stiffness, performance and repeatability matter, from engineering prototypes to end-use parts.
FDM builds parts in real thermoplastics, up to 800 × 800 × 1,000 mm, and holds ±0.4 mm on suitable rigid parts. It suits functional prototypes, jigs and fixtures, and short runs where strength, size and practicality matter most.
For big parts, see large format 3D printing.
See FDM 3D printing for the filaments we run.
Parts print overnight. You see results in the morning. That pace helps you iterate faster and make decisions based on real hardware, not renderings.
DLP resins include AMD-3 for high-resolution models, Sunlu Nylon-Like for tougher parts and SuperHDT for high temperatures.

Our 3D printing department runs with substantial capacity and a standard 24 hour turnaround across a range of materials. High and standard resolution parts can be produced simultaneously on the same large format machine. Dimensional accuracy is achieved through process knowledge rather than default settings our technicians understand SLA and Carbon DLS printing well enough to make the right build orientation decisions for each part.
Stereolithography delivers the tolerances medical work demands. We print surgical guides, diagnostic housings and complex assemblies where accuracy cannot slip.

We match material to application so your parts perform where it counts
See every material and data sheet we run, read about 3D printing in Cambridge, or see what affects the price.
Insert selection is reviewed against material specification on every CAD file before production begins. The choice between threaded inserts, self-tappers and helicoils is not incidental - it affects thread integrity, pull-out strength and long term performance. Where the specified insert is not the right solution for the material or geometry, we raise it with the customer directly and agree the correct approach before committing to production.
Fast cycles. Tight tolerances. Material choices that hold up.

It depends on the part: its size and volume, the process and material, how many you need and the finish. There is no tooling or set-up charge, so a single part is affordable and the price per part falls in a batch. We quote each job from your CAD, and our pricing guide explains what affects the price.
A 3D printer builds a part layer by layer from a CAD file. SLA cures liquid resin with a UV laser, Carbon DLS cures resin with projected light, and FDM lays down melted plastic filament. Each layer bonds to the one below until the part is complete. We then clean it, remove any supports and finish it.
We don't 3D print metal. For metal prototypes and parts, we CNC machine from solid aluminium, steels, stainless steel and brass, so you get the real material. SLA parts can also be plated in copper or nickel for a metallic finish, on parts up to about a 150 mm cube.
Prototypes for form and fit checks, working assemblies, show and photography models, clear parts such as light pipes, master patterns for vacuum casting, jigs and fixtures, and production batches of 20 to 200 parts or more, all without tooling.
