Turnaround time for 3D printing and design projects depends on several factors, including:
– Project Complexity: Highly detailed models or those requiring multiple parts will naturally take longer than simple designs.
– Material Choice: Some materials may require additional post-processing steps, impacting turnaround.
– Order Volume: Larger orders or multiple projects will influence production schedules.
Please provide us with your project details to get the most accurate estimate. We strive to provide fast turnaround times without sacrificing quality.
The cost of 3D printing varies depending on several factors. These include:
– Model size and complexity: Larger, more intricate models use more material and take longer to print.
– Material choice: Standard plastics are the most affordable, while specialized materials (flexible, high-strength, etc.) increase costs.
– Finishing: Post-processing, such as sanding, painting, or polishing, will add to the cost.
– Quantity: There might be discounts for larger production runs in some cases.
The best way to get an accurate price is to upload your 3D model, and we’ll provide you with a detailed quote tailored to your project. Our design experts can sometimes suggest modifications to your model that optimize it for 3D and reduce costs.
Yes, we offer a full suite of 3D design services. Whether you have a rough concept, an existing 2D sketch, or a finished CAD file, our team can help transform your ideas into printable 3D models. Contact us to discuss your design needs and get a quote.
Getting started with 3D printing is easier than you might think! Here’s a simple process to follow:
1.Define Your Idea: What do you want to create? Be specific (e.g., a functional prototype or a decorative model).
2.Choose Your Path:
– Design it yourself: If you’re familiar with 3D modeling software (CAD), start designing your object. Many beginner-friendly programs, like Tinkercad, are also available.
– Find a pre-made model: Websites like Thingiverse, Cults3D, and MyMiniFactory offer a vast library of free downloadable 3D printable files.
– Work with our design team: If you need help with the design phase, we offer 3D design services to bring your vision to life.

Materials & Capabilities FAQs
About Our 3D Printing Service in UAE
In the Materials & Capabilities FAQs section, we provide detailed information about the materials we use for 3D printing and the capabilities of our equipment. Discover the size limitations and intricate details our 3D printers can achieve, ensuring your project meets the highest standards of quality and precision.
We primarily work with photopolymer resins due to their incredible precision and versatility. Key benefits include:
– Exceptional Detail: Resins capture intricate features and smooth surfaces.
– Diverse Properties: Options for strength, flexibility, transparency, and specialized uses.
– Rapid Prototyping: Resin-based printing is often faster than filament-based (FDM) technologies.
– Professional Results: Ideal for models and end-use parts.
Need help choosing the suitable resin? Our team will help you select the perfect material.
Our 3D Printer boasts one of the largest print volumes available on the market. Its maximum build volume is 330mm x 185mm x 300mm (L x W x H). This build volume allows you to print large objects simultaneously in one go or several smaller parts. This generous print size eliminates the need to split large models into multiple pieces, saving you time and ensuring seamless results.
Yes, we provide various post-processing services to take your prints to the next level. The services include:
– Sanding and Priming: For a perfect base before painting prop replicas or miniatures.
– Polishing: Creating ultra-smooth, glossy surfaces on resin prints.
– Specialty finishes: Include coating resin prints with metallic effects, weathering, clear coating, and more.
Contact us to discuss the best post-processing options for your project.
Our printers create highly detailed and accurate models. Delicate features, intricate geometries, and smooth surfaces are all achievable. Layer lines will be virtually invisible for many projects, allowing for stunning realism.
File & Design FAQs
About Our 3D Printing Service in UAE
Our File & Design FAQs section addresses all your questions about the formats and specifications needed for 3D printing. We accept a variety of file formats, including STL and OBJ, to ensure compatibility with our printers. Explore the guidelines and tips for preparing your files to achieve the best results for your project.
We accept the most common 3D printing file formats to ensure compatibility:
– STL: The industry standard for 3D printing.
– OBJ: Also widely used, often includes color and texture information.
– 3MF: A newer format designed to address the limitations of STL.
Do you need a Different Format? We can often convert other file types. If you send us your specific file, we’ll gladly check its compatibility.
Important Note: For optimal print quality, please export your models in the highest possible resolution.
Yes! Following design guidelines helps ensure your 3D models print successfully and meet your expectations. Here’s a quick overview:
Wall Thickness: Maintain minimum wall thicknesses to prevent breakage and warping.
Overhangs: Design with 45-degree support angles in mind, or minimize overhangs whenever possible.
Tolerances: Account for slight shrinkage or expansion of the material during printing.
Hollowing: Consider hollowing larger models to save material and reduce print time.
File Resolution: Export your model at the highest possible resolution for optimal detail.
