What do you need to get started 3D printing in Houston?

The process starts with a file, specifically an STL file. STL is the format preferred by most 3D printers, though there are a couple others (OBJ, WRL). If you don’t have a file ready, never fear – we can create one for you. We can do this in a few ways:

Convert your CAD model into an optimized 3D printer file.

Take your sketches or napkin drawings and build a model from scratch

Scan you hand-made prototype if you have one. You can even model something out of clay or wood, or glue together existing parts to get us started.

How much time does it take?

Most small projects can be completed in 3-5 days.

How big do you want it? Parts can be made larger or smaller than their original size.

What type of material do you need? ABS plastic (the same thing Legos are made of) is a common choice.

What color do you want?

Does the part need to have strength for functional use, or is it just for display purposes?

Can the part be hollow, or does it need to be solid inside?

Do you want to make any changes to the part’s shape?

How smooth does the surface finish need to be?

Do you want to print multiple parts together as an assembly, or parts that fit together a certain way?

If you’re not sure about the best answer to these questions, we’ll recommend the best option based on your requirements, so that you achieve your goal using 3d printing technology in the most economical way.

We can also provide information on material properties (strength, heat tolerance, etc) and brochures with material spec sheets.

If have your own printer and just need help preparing the STL file, we would be glad to support you in that way. Click here for more information on STL File Preparation for 3D Printing.
