Our Core Capabilities
We specialize in two primary manufacturing processes, optimized for prototyping and low-volume production runs.
SLA Resin Printing
Stereolithography (SLA) delivers the highest resolution and smoothest surface finish of all 3D printing technologies. Perfect for intricate details, concept models, and functional prototyping requiring tight tolerances.

Pressure Casting
A highly cost-effective method for low-volume production. Using silicone molds created from SLA master patterns, we cast high-quality polyurethane parts that are better and more cost efficient than injection molding.

SLA Resin Printing
5 Materials
Sharp details, smooth surface finish. Ideal for prototypes, display models and design reviews.
High stiffness and impact resistance. Perfect for snap-fits, enclosures and functional assemblies.
Rubber-like flexibility. Used for gaskets, grips, seals and soft-touch components.
Absorbs repeated stress without failure. Suited for brackets, levers and impact-critical parts.
Certified biocompatible. For surgical guides, orthodontic models and body-contact applications.
Pressure Casting
5 Materials
Hard and dimensionally stable. Ideal for housings, enclosures and load-bearing brackets.
Balanced strength and flex. Used for panels, covers and over-molded assemblies.
Soft, rubber-like feel. For seals, grips, bumpers and soft-touch components.
Water-clear clarity. For lenses, light guides and transparent display covers.
UL94 V-0 certified. For electronics enclosures and safety-critical applications.
Every part leaves our facility meeting engineering-grade quality standards.

Design Guidelines
Wall Thickness
SLA- βMin. 0.6 mm structural; 0.8β2.0 mm recommended
- βUniform thickness reduces warping and internal stress
Holes & Channels
SLA- βMin. hole β 0.5 mm (vertical) / 1.0 mm (horizontal)
- βBlind holes: depth β€ 2Γ diameter for resin drainage
Tolerances & Fits
SLA- βClearance fit: add 0.2β0.3 mm gap between mating parts
- βPress fit: 0.05β0.1 mm interference; use heat-set inserts for M3 and smaller
Draft Angles
Casting- βMinimum 1Β° draft on all vertical faces for clean mold release
- β2β3Β° recommended for textured surfaces
Ribs & Bosses
Casting- βRib thickness β€ 0.6Γ adjacent wall to prevent sink marks
- βBoss outer β = 2Γ wall thickness; add gussets for tall bosses
