Materials

Nylon 12 [Versatile Plastic]

Nylon 12 [Versatile Plastic] is a durable nylon plastic that can be used for a wide range of applications, both for prototyping and for end products. Printed using Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 3D printing services, when thin, it's flexible enough for hinges and springs and when thick, strong enough for structural components. Material Details

Accura 60

Accura 60 is a translucent and rigid acrylate-based plastic. Shapeways 3D prints this material using a large-format Stereolithography (SLA) printer capable of producing small to large parts with high resolution and detail as well as smooth surfaces with limited layer lines. Material Details

Stainless Steel 316L

Stainless Steel 316L is manufactured using ExOne’s ‘Triple Advanced Compaction Technology’ with Binder Jetting. Unlike our Steel that is infused with bronze, this material is a single alloy, composed of pure Stainless Steel. Material Details

Testimonials

I like the ease of use in the Shapeways platform, being able to 3D print on-demand orders for the first time, and most of all–being able to scale my business. In the beginning years ago I basically had the change in my pocket and a credit line at my bank so I couldn’t order a ton of things, and you never know what’s going to sell.”

Steven Jaworski

Owner | Voytek Medical

During the process, we used Shapeways capabilities to 3D print many prototypes. That meant we had the option to iterate very quickly, print objects, and test them to see if they were working correctly in terms of complexity, or too much complexity.”

Yonatan Assouline

Manager & Co-Founder | Flamingo Works

Shapeways was really great when we worked together before, which led us to reach out again. It’s been so helpful to talk with them about what we could do in every aspect of 3D printing and finishing, and it saved us a lot of time in experimentation. ”

ABS*ABS is strong and durable, suitable for printing housings, gears and stressed parts. We print by default.

PLAPLA has low print shrinkage, prints small fragments well, can print overhanging elements. Also, since PLA is made from corn, it can be used in food production

PET-GPET-G is stronger than ABS, less shrinkage, chemically resistant. This plastic has excellent interlaminar adhesion. Food grade plastic

CarbonCarbon is a nylon with carbon added. Very durable and wear-resistant, has low shrinkage and deformation during printing. In addition, after printing, the parts have a rough surface, on which the layering is not visible.

FlexFlex is an excellent rubber-like material. Unlike its TPU (polyurethane) counterpart, it is chemically resistant to engine oil and gasoline, and can be used as gaskets and flexible hoses in the automotive industry

PhotopolymerPhotopolymer resin is indispensable for printing small and precise details. Advantages: layer thickness up to 1 micron, no layers visible, possibility of printing transparent models, coloring before printing with coloring pigments

ABS-Like loaded and durable parts. Together with ultra-high precision printing, it is indispensable for printing small gears and machine parts

Carbon is a nylon with added carbon. Thanks to this combination, carbon has the super strength of nylon, but is spared its disadvantage - strong shrinkage. Carbon also has an amazing property: the surface of the part after printing is rough without visible layering, like other plastics. Therefore, it can be used not only for printing heavy-duty and loaded products, but also for decorative elements. Order print

Notes

Many potential customers of our company who are considering our professional services think that 3D printing cost of is very high today. They say that new expensive equipment, not the cheapest materials and unique technology, which is not available on every corner, lead to an automatic increase in the cost of the service provided, which has only recently begun to be popular in our country. But such reasoning goes against the fundamental concept and philosophy of our company. From the first day of opening, we set ourselves the goal of bringing 3D printing technologies to the masses, making them the maximum available for everyone. And, in our opinion, on this path we have managed to achieve great success. 3D printing cost calculator , posted on the official website of our company, will help you make sure of this.

The development of appropriate software has been one of the top priorities of our skilled programmers. We wanted to demonstrate to potential customers that 3D printing can be quite affordable in its final price. And the best way to do this is by providing the opportunity to conduct your own calculations according to individual parameters, available to each visitor to our site. To take advantage of 3D printing cost calculator , you do not have to contact our managers, go through the registration procedure on the site or send your contact information anywhere. Just go to the site, go to a special page and take step-by-step actions, the end result of which will be to get the result you need in the form of the price of the ordered service.

How exactly is the calculation of the cost of 3D printing in the calculator on our website? This procedure boils down to making three basic steps .

Download model

You will need a file of a three-dimensional model of the object, which you want to print by ordering the appropriate service from our company. The file must be in STL format, which is optimal both for the printing procedure itself and for carrying out the necessary calculations.

3D printing settings

These are advanced steps for specifying individual print process parameters. In particular, here you can determine the material of the printed object, the filling density of the object and the thickness of the printed layer. Each of these parameters, set in the corresponding windows of the online 3D printing cost calculator, will largely determine the quality of the final result. This is especially important for the thickness (height) parameter of the walls of the printed part, which will be the better, the thicker and stronger its underlying layer will be.

Please note that the defined parameters are already set by default, and you will have to change them as you wish in manual mode. As for the settings shown, they are suitable for the vast majority of our customers and their orders. We are talking about the use of reliable ABS plastic, a 20% filling density of the printed object, as well as a layer thickness of 0.25 millimeters. If these parameters suit you, you can safely skip the second paragraph and proceed to the third step of using the 3D printing cost calculator.

Get result

When you upload the correct 3D model file, our calculator will quickly make the necessary calculations and then display the price on your screen. At the same time, the main characteristics of the printed object will be calculated and visually indicated, and recommendations will be provided regarding the possible need to change the order parameters in order to achieve a better result. Online calculation of the cost of 3D printing in the calculator starts immediately after you upload a three-dimensional model. But when changing the parameters from the second step, the calculation is repeated, giving the corrected result.

Is the amount received through the steps described final and irrevocable? No. The print cost calculator is designed to indicate for you the approximate price of the ordered service, which can change in one direction or another when placing an order directly together with the manager of our company. But you will already know what cost to expect in order to get the result you need. We guarantee that the final price prescribed in the contract, if it differs from the one calculated in the calculator, then only by a minimum value.

The fourth step of is filling in the contact information in the appropriate fields on our website, as well as sending an application for your 3D model and individually defined characteristics of the printing process to our company's operators. Of course, you will proceed to this step only if the cost of 3D printing given by the online calculator suits you.
