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.

How do I select the right 3D printing process for my prints?

You can select the right 3D printing process by examining which materials suit your need and what your use case is.

By material: if you already know which material you would like to use, selecting a 3D printing process is relatively easy, as many materials are technology specific.
By use case: once you know whether you need a functional or visual part, choosing a process is easy.

For more help, read our guide to selecting the right 3D printing process. Find out more about Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) and Stereolithography (SLA).

How can I reduce the cost of my 3D prints?

In order to reduce the cost of your 3D prints you need to understand the impact certain factors have on cost. The main cost influencing factors are the material type, individual part volume, printing technology and post-processing requirements.

Once these have been decided, an easy way to further cut costs is to reduce the amount of material used. This can be done by decreasing the size of your model, hollowing it out, and eliminating the need for support structures.

Houses will be 3D printed - Kommersant FM - Kommersant

A block of houses printed on a 3D printer will appear in Texas. The Lennar Group and ICON will be involved in the construction. A new district will be built in the city of Austin. Engineers claim that the technology will reduce the cost of the construction process and at the same time build high-quality buildings. Lavacrete material will be used to create houses - this is an especially strong concrete mix optimized for 3D printing. Developers claim that the material will allow houses to withstand strong earthquakes and extreme weather. This is especially true for Texas, which often suffers from tornadoes and storms. nine0003

However, it is too early to talk about the complete safety of such houses, says Alexander Peres, co-founder of the Association of Russian Manufacturers in the Sphere of Additive Technologies. In addition, their cost is much higher than analogues built using conventional technologies.

“Very little time has passed since such houses began to be built for life. If a specialist participates in the process of automatic reinforcement with the help of additional pipe arms, it will be safe. Building a very tall house with 3D printing is scary, you have to start with lower buildings. At the moment, such construction is economically unprofitable, since it is not very common and unpopular. nine0003

Since the technology is now in its infancy and the methods of building with 3D printing vary, everyone has their own approach. Nevertheless, very expensive equipment is still required.

The mass market is not ready for this. But if you work out the technique on typical one-story houses that are being built in a certain place, where all the equipment will be located and a large settlement will be created, then it will be cheaper and faster.

However, we are not yet ready to build each building in a new location. If you look at the market, there are already ads for the sale of houses built using 3D printing, and they are always much more expensive, ”Perez notes. nine0003

The construction of housing using new technology is due to the lack of housing in the United States. According to The Wall Street Journal, there is a shortage of 5 million homes compared to buyer demand. In Russia, such projects are not in demand due to the high cost of technology. So far, they can only be considered as fashionable ones, Georgy Dzagurov, CEO of Penny Lane Realty, says:

“We assessed the situation and realized that at the moment technology does not allow doing it cheaply. However, I already know several projects in the near Moscow region and on the Black Sea coast, where people were going to at least partially build something using 3D printing and believe that in this way they will catch the hype and attract journalists. nine0003

Thus, this will allow them to save not on building technologies, but on marketing, since attention to the project will certainly be attracted, because these are the first cases in Russia that houses will be built using a 3D printer. However, I am not yet sure that such methods can achieve serious savings, but I am convinced that someday it will happen. The main problem is still the economy, as soon as it starts to develop, everything will be safe and efficient. I think that this technology will be in demand in Russia as soon as everything is tested in practice and it becomes popular.” nine0003

Earlier, the media reported that in the Yaroslavl region, a whole village will be printed on a 3D printer. Students of the AMT training center, a resident of the Skolkovo Foundation, will live in the houses.

BIG, Lennar and ICON build the world's largest 3D printed home district

BIG, Lennar and ICON build the world's largest 3D printed home district

Home builder Lennar and building technology company ICON are partnering with BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group to build the largest community of 3D printed homes to date. With 100 homes expected to be built in the Austin area in 2022, it will combine ICON's innovative robotics, software, and cutting-edge materials with BIG's design.

This project arose after labor and material shortages made home ownership unaffordable for many American families, with nearly 5.5 million single-family homes missing nationwide. The 3D printing technology produced by ICON offers durable and energy efficient homes that can be built faster than traditional construction methods and result in less waste. The modules will be designed and engineered from the ground up using the ICON Vulcan Building System, a technology that provides homes and structures up to 3,000 square feet and includes wall systems and advanced materials that are stronger and more durable than traditional building materials to withstand extreme loads. weather. nine0003

Homes designed by BIG will include a variety of modern living spaces that modernize traditional country homes and embody many distinctive spatial concepts. The freedom of design offered by 3D printing allows the creation of homes that are both aesthetically and physically unique, providing unique design elements such as texture and shape to each space.

ICON exists as a response to the global housing crisis and to put our technology at the service of the world. Construction-scale 3D printing not only delivers higher quality homes faster and cheaper, but a fleet of printers could change the way entire communities are built for the better. The United States is facing a shortfall of approximately 5 million new homes, so there is an urgent need to rapidly increase supply without sacrificing quality, beauty, or sustainability, and this is precisely the strength of our technology. It is a great honor and milestone for ICON to partner with Lennar, an elite, top-tier construction company committed to innovation. We believe this will be a watershed in the history of community development and the future moving into the present.
