Choose Your Material
Select from five professional-grade thermoplastic materials.
- PLA for general prototyping and decorative items. ABS for strong, heat-resistant functional parts.
- PETG for chemical resistance and outdoor applications. TPU for flexible, rubber-like components.
- Nylon for high-performance engineering parts that require exceptional strength and wear resistance.
- Each material is available in multiple colors. View detailed property comparisons on our materials page.

See Your Pricing
See a transparent price breakdown with no hidden charges.
- Our pricing engine calculates cost based on material weight (volume multiplied by material density), scaled by your chosen quantity.
- The price includes material cost, a fixed service fee, packaging, and any optional add-ons like polishing, painting, or a print timelapse video.
- Adjust scale and quantity in real time to see how the price changes. The entire breakdown is visible before checkout.
- Prices are displayed in your local currency with no hidden surprises.

We Print Your Part
Your design is printed on professional FDM 3D printers.
- Our team reviews every order for printability and optimizes orientation and support placement for the best results.
- We use calibrated, professional-grade FDM printers with tight tolerances to ensure dimensional accuracy.
- If you selected add-ons like polishing, primer, or painting, those are applied after printing during the post-processing stage.
- Track your order status in real time through your dashboard: confirmed, printing, post-processing, quality check, and shipped.
