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.

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.

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.

How 3D printing helps fight the coronavirus

Protective mask designs, door handle designs, medical supplies blueprints are donated by companies and enthusiasts who work with 3D printing. Volunteer 3D makers from all over the world have joined the fight against coronavirus. nine0006

Hospitals in Italy, which ranks second in the world in terms of the number of victims of COVID-19 (more than 25 thousand people died there), are sorely lacking medicines and equipment. In March, a clinic in the city of Brescia in Lombardy ran out of valves for ventilators. The manufacturer could not organize an emergency supply of components. Enthusiasts from the startup Isinnova came to the rescue. They independently made drawings according to the model, printed consumables on a 3D printer and handed them over to the hospital for free. Ventilators could be used again, and this helped save the lives of ten people. nine0006

Later, fakes began to spread on the Web that the valve manufacturer sued the startup for patent infringement. Subsequently, this information was refuted.

Participants of the Chilean project Copper3D also contributed to the fight against coronavirus. They have posted a 3D design of a protective mask in the public domain. In the first two days alone, the file was downloaded 3 million times.

Czech Prusa Research has published a drawing of a face shield. The company printed and donated more than 65,000 shields to the country's medical institutions. nine0006

Large companies are not left out. In the US, 3D manufacturer SmileDirectClub, a manufacturer of orthodontic accessories, has lent its capacity to print medical consumables needed to treat COVID-19. The company manufactures protective screens. The first batch of 1,000 shields has already arrived at St. Luke's Medical Center in Boise, Idaho.

CadCrowd, an international portal for 3D creators, is holding a competition to develop accessories that will help you avoid touching surfaces in common areas with your hands. “Examples of such products are touchless door handles, door handle attachments and faucets,” the briefing notes. The most successful ideas with all the technical documentation will be posted online. nine0006

Such developments already exist. Belgium-based Materialize posted on their website a drawing of a doorknob escutcheon that can be used to open the door with your elbow.

There are enthusiasts who are not afraid to take on more complex tasks. Thus, on the platform of the web service for hosting and joint development of IT projects Github, within the framework of the OpenRespirator project, a list of verified drawings of ventilators and their components is presented, according to which products can be printed on a 3D printer. nine0006

The Russian community of 3D printer owners has also joined the global trend. Participants of the “Makers against COVID-19” initiatives, volunteers from different cities of the Russian Federation, produce and donate personal protective equipment to medical institutions.

Another example is the initiative of the residents of the Technopolis Moscow special economic zone. Companies are ready to set up the production of scarce components for medical equipment using 3D printing.

Ordinary people who have a 3D printer are also actively involved in the common cause.

“Gentlemen, in case everything stops working at all, how can our printers help in the fight against this infection? Can some kind of respiratory filters be printed or are there simplest ventilation systems? - a subscriber of the 3DToday website addresses like-minded people (the spelling of the author is preserved - ed.
