Xometry's High Quality 3D Printing Services

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is a powerful 3D printing technology that produces highly accurate and durable parts that are capable of being used directly in end-use, low-volume production, or for rapid prototyping.

An additive manufacturing layer technology, SLS involves the use of a high power laser (for example, a carbon dioxide laser) to fuse small particles of plastic powders into a mass that has a desired three-dimensional shape. The laser selectively fuses powdered material by scanning cross-sections generated from a 3-D digital description of the part (for example from a CAD file or scan data) on the surface of a powder bed. After each cross-section is scanned, the powder bed is lowered by one layer thickness, a new layer of material is applied on top, and the process is repeated until the part is completed.

Stereolithography (SLA)

Stereolithography (SLA) is a robust 3D printing technology that produces extremely accurate and high-resolution parts that are capable of being used directly in end-use, low-volume production, or for rapid prototyping.

SLA is an additive manufacturing process that focuses an ultraviolet (UV) light on a vat of photopolymer resin. It offers higher resolution printing than many other 3D printing technologies, allowing customers to print parts with fine details and surface finishes. SLA 3D printing is a highly-versatile platform for making custom parts in prototype and production settings; often acting as a stand-in for injection-molded plastic parts.

Xometry offers both standard and high-resolution options for fine detail parts, and can also print larger sized parts and products, with some materials offering up to a 58" inch build area. In addition, Xometry's manufacturing partner network allows us to offer a larger variety of materials than other 3D printing companies - we offer a wide range of both Accura and Somos brand materials.

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a 3D printing technology widely known for its speed, accuracy, and competitive cost. A machine precisely extrudes melted plastic filament to create a part. Parts are very rigid, especially compared to Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), which makes them a great fit for projects with a rigidity requirement. Xometry's FDM solution offers large build volumes up to 24″ x 36″ x 36″, a variety of colors, and a diverse selection of production-grade thermoplastics — from ABS to Polycarbonate to Ultem.

HP Multi Jet Fusion (HP MJF)

HP Multi Jet Fusion is a new 3D printing technology that produces highly accurate and durable parts that are capable of being used directly in end-use, low-volume production, or for rapid prototyping. Since the process uses well-established 2D printing ink-jetting, it has remarkably fast layer times compared to other powder bed fusion technologies.

PolyJet 3D (PJ3D)

PolyJet 3D is a 3D printing technology known for its customizable material properties and excellent surface finish. It works by jetting UV curable resin onto a build tray in a process that is somewhat similar to inkjet printing. PolyJet 3D printing offers one of the most advanced industrial 3D printing solutions available, producing parts with incredible precision and speed. It also supports a wide variety of build materials including rigid and rubber-like plastics. Xometry's PolyJet solution has a maximum build envelope of 19. 3 × 15.4 × 7.9 in. (490 × 390 × 200 mm) in a variety of colors and materials.

Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS)

Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) is an 3D metal printing technology that builds prototype and production metal parts from a CAD file using a laser to selectively fuse a fine metal powder in either stainless steel or aluminum materials. A DMLS machine is capable of producing highly complex features and all-in-one assemblies using metal materials that would be difficult to achieve with subtractive manufacturing techniques.

Our DMLS metal 3D printing service typically offers build volumes up to 250 x 250 x 325 mm, but we may be able to accommodate larger part volumes upon request in the quote. (See our Manufacturing Standards for more details) A good first step is to find out the cost of the parts you need using DMLS and compare them to other 3D printing processes and CNC machining.

Download the DMLS Design Guide.

Carbon DLS™

Carbon DLS™ uses digital light projection, oxygen-permeable optics, and programmable liquid resins to produce products with end-use durability, resolution and surface finish. This 3D printing technology is called Digital Light Synthesis™, or DLS for short. Another legacy term for the process is Continuous Liquid Interface Production (CLIP). Along with Carbon’s custom liquid resins, DLS unlocks new business opportunities and product designs previously impossible, including mass customization and on-demand inventory of end-use products.

Carbon bridges, and sometimes substitutes, for processes like Urethane Casting and Injection Molding service production, because the materials are urethane-based or epoxy-based, giving excellent mechanical properties. There are even elastomer and silicone resins that outperform most additive manufactured rubber-like materials.

The typical build area is 7.4” x 4.6” x 12.8”. Parts with dimensions exceeding 4” x 4” x 6” will require manual review.

Download the Carbon DLS Design Guide.

Metal Binder Jetting

With binder jetting, an inkjet print head quickly deposits a bonding agent onto a thin layer of powdered particles -- either metal, sand, ceramics or composites. This process is repeated, layer-by-layer, using a map from a digital design file, until the object is complete. Binder jetting is offered through our Digital RFQ Marketplace through Xometry's partnership with ExOne.

Our History

3D Print Everything was born in April 2017 with the purchase of my first printer and a dream to be self-employed. Part of the spark that brought me to 3D printing for a profit was a quote I got from a 3D print shop that seemed so high the only option for me was to learn how to print and with that offer 3D printing services to people at a more affordable price! After months of learning how to break/repair and dail in 3dp printer settings we in August 2017, the name was coined and Google Business listing created. The very next day, I was accepting orders and learning how to turn this into a full time business.

One printer turned into two, then quickly became four. Six months into accepting orders, I was challenged to make it a full-time gig by a new friend. He helped form my first and current logo, which went on my first 2000 business cards. After handing those out, in August of 2018, I was doing enough business for me to officially make 3D printing my full-time job! I separated my bank accounts, got the Thryv CRM, started to go to networking events, and my business took off!

I began 2019 with 7 printers and by the end of that year we had 20+ active printers, multiple resller agreements for 3D printers, A quality industrial portable 3D Scanner, and more B2B connections that allow us to offer even more services.

2020 Was looking to be a strong year for promoting/ booths, events and growing the business, as we all know March 2020 was about to change how everyone viewed the present and future!
3D Printing saw a huge surge in the early months of Covid-19, With people in their homes off work, health concerned individuals, and entrepreneurs the spark of learning how to 3d Print to save the world was off! Face masks, ear savers, door knob pullers were produced by us and by the tens of thousands of others around the world. In the shortage of medical supplies Makers stepped up to fill the gap. Our Facebook group "3D Print Everything for Profit" grew from 5,000 members to 13,000 members in 3 months with vetting people so many were turned away if they didnt answer.
In the following months as big businesses started back up with social distancing in-place our local b2b 3D printing saw a massive uptick. 
In the middle of all this we also started up the production of 3D Printer Filament Under the name Dragon Print. 
We now make and sell Premium Filament produced in a warehouse in Rhome Texas.

2021 Upgrading to have 35+ printers Including Large Fomat 1000x1000x1600mm 

 We are fast-growing, currently expanding into custom car modification, rapid prototyping for engineering groups, large format, 3D Scanning.

2022 Going into the new year we have moved outside my house/garage into the Tarrent County Makerspace! Now in a official storefront with more room to grow!
Better organization and workflow, near term plans are to add multiple more large format printers and almost double the amount of smaller printers.
We are also the exclusive dealer of Kingroon Brand printers in the USA.

There is no job too big or small for us. We are happy to troubleshoot any problems that arise and use our expertise and background to help you get exactly what you need when you need it.

We are happy to work with both large companies and individuals a like.

90,000 3D printed photos. My experience / 3D printers, machines and accessories / iXBT Live

Can I print a photo on a 3D printer? It turns out yes. True, this will not be exactly the photograph that is obtained on paper, but that’s all. Equally, this technology can be called photo printing. The technology is called "lithophany" and in fact it has been used since very ancient times? When our ancestors did various products ( dishes or simply records), which, when transillumination worked like a photograph. Nowadays, of course, no one will at home, engage in lithophany from porcelain or clay or even wood. But with the development of technology and the advent of 3D printers among many hobbyists, this technology has revived, and in my opinion it is very interesting and promising in the souvenir industry. Naturally, I was also interested lithophany, after I came across references to it several times. Well I decided to study this issue in more detail, as well as conduct several experiments. Well, then what I did, I'll show you.

So, lithophany. This is a technology for placing a pattern in layers, which exposed to the light turns into a three-dimensional image. Specifically, on a 3D printer, this everything can be done with a different number of layers in the printed model. But this the model must be obtained from somewhere. You can, of course, simulate it, but for this you need to be able to do it. There is a much easier way. Everything as already said done for us. We go to the site lithophanemaker. com which is free online generator of STL models with the image we need:

There are several options to choose from. It could be like an ordinary plank, as well as a volumetric lamp or a ball. Here everything depends on our fantasy. Despite the fact that the site is in English, problems with misunderstanding there is no interface.

Select the model that interests us. I chose a heart. As the first test image, I decided to use the picture shown on her lol doll, which downloaded for my daughter. I upload an image to the site, choose the size, placement, type of image (convex or depressed) and get a finished STL file which can be opened in Cura slicer and sent to print:

My filament is PETG from Syntech. It has sufficient light transmission, but at the same time it is not bad and retains light in denser layers.

Since this is the first test print, I set it a little wrong settings. Here you need a layer lower, and the speed is slower. But in general the model turned out normal. This is how it looks:

For those who are interested in dynamics, you can see the animation below:

As you can see, technology is interesting.

What if we take a more complex image? So let's do it. I find on the Internet a photo of the singer Beyonce. The one that allegedly, according to the statement of the singer and her lawyers were removed from the Internet. Here it is:

Uploading to the site again, only now I chose not a heart, but a simple medal. We slightly adjust the image and get a model ready for printing:

This time I try to print with a layer of 0.01mm, with the extruder more than 30mm/s. Nozzle temperature 230 degrees, table temperature 70 degrees. Plastic PETG white from Syntechlab.

At the output, we get this image with seemingly incomprehensible nonsense:

But as soon as we turn the medal and point it at the light source from behind, picture appears immediately:

How do you like it? Personally, I like it.

Here is another animation demonstration:

filling the model 100%, then the rims are more dense and do not shine through.

Well, below I will show a few more examples of lithophany that I found in the Internet.

Many different souvenirs can be made with this technology. Night lights, Christmas tree decorations, paintings, key rings. The main thing is that a light source is placed in them at the back.

I personally planned to make a night lamp for the children's room, and while I am looking for an option for an inexpensive light source, compact enough and not hot, so that you can put it in such a night light.
