What is 3D printing and where does it fit in with your needs?
3D printing is a versatile manufacturing technology that fuses material together in the shape of the object you want produced. There are many shapes that a 3D printer can produce that traditional manufacturing methods would either struggle with or be very costly to use for a low-volume production run. What this means is that 3D printing opens up the possibilities of what you can make and what problems you can solve, both in less time and for less money. The applications are limitless!
3D printing also has its place in the process of taking a product to market. The first step is to have an idea. The second step is to give the idea form and function via engineering and design work. This then calls for the fabrication of a prototype/proof-of-concept, which is step three. Once the design has been validated in the prototyping phase, molds can be ordered and mass production can begin through the traditional methods of manufacturing. 3D printing fits into that third step, and it is the quickest, easiest, and cheapest way to have a prototype created.
If you have an prototype, model, or any other object you want made, contact us now to see how we can help you create your product or project today! If you need a computer CAD file for something you want made, visit our directory of reputable open source file websites where you can search through a vast collection of open source CAD files and likely find exactly what you’re looking for. And if you can’t find what you’re looking for there, you can always ask us to design it for you!
Detail and Precision
3D prints can be made with widely varying degrees of detail, depending on the shape of the object and the printer settings used. Our high quality machines are capable of producing 3D prints with exceptional detail and dimensional accuracy should your part require it, just tell us what you need!
Custom Designs and 3D Scanning
We offer 3D CAD drawing/design services for component parts, as well as 3D scanning services. If you would like to have a part 3D printed but you don’t have the required 3D computer CAD file, let us know and we would be more than happy to go over your project with you!
Post Processing
What sets us apart from other 3D printing services is that we offer complete post processing work. We can smooth, paint, and assemble (multi-part) prints. Get in touch and find out how we can help you with your next amazing project!
Coming Soon
We love what we do here at Action Express 3D Printing, and we are constantly working on new ways to provide more value to our customers. We currently offer FDM (filament) and SLA (resin) 3D printing, 3D scanning, and 3D CAD design all in-house, as well as select metal services, and here are some of the things that you can look forward to from us in the near future:
Multi-Colored 3d Prints: for the prints that need to be ready to show off, right off the build plate!
Integrated Electronics: for cosplayers that want their costumes to look and function like the real thing.
