Our 3D printing service
As an authorized reseller of Formlabs, UltiMaker and Raise3D, we know our machines inside out and know what they can do. For this reason, we offer you our 3D printing service as a 3D printing service provider. We manufacture for you in-house in Zurich on our own machines. This offers you high-quality printing results and reliability in scheduling. We can currently offer you the 3D printing service in three processes and over 20 materials.
Are you unsure about materials or production technology? We will be happy to advise you competently:

3 steps to an offerUltiMaker & Raise3D FDM/FFF 3D printers
We use our UltiMaker and Raise3D FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) 3D printers to produce functional prototypes, concept models and mould studies quickly and cost-effectively. On these machines, we process ABS, ASA, PLA, Tough PLA, PETG, TPU 95A, PC and PA6 or PA12 with microcarbon fibers in a build space of up to around 300 x 300 x 300 mm (depending on the material). The layer thickness is 0.1-0.4 mm and the tolerance is approx. 0.2 mm, depending on the geometry.
In this process, a plastic wire is melted and applied in layers (melt layering).
Advantages
- Relatively inexpensive materials (thermoplastics)
- Also suitable for relatively large components
- Usable, durable components
- Post-processing easily possible
- z. Partly food-safe plastics
Disadvantages
- Visible layering
- High tolerances
- Support must be removed mechanically depending on the size of the component
Formlabs SLA 3D printer
The Formlabs MSLA/SLA (masked/stereolithography) 3D printers are suitable for the production of a wide variety of models; we process materials for engineering, dental applications, jewelry design and standard materials for design and architecture. The installation space of these machines is 335 x 200 x 300 mm. The layer thickness is 0.025 – 0.3 mm depending on the material and component size. The tolerances are also dependent on the choice of material, layer thickness and geometry at approx. 0.035 – 0.075 mm.
In this process, a liquid synthetic resin is hardened layer by layer with the help of a laser.
Advantages
- Very precise printouts
- High surface quality
- Large selection of materials
- Special materials for various industries
- Also suitable for very small components
Disadvantages
- not UV stable
- Support must be removed mechanically
- Some slightly more expensive materials
Formlabs SLS 3D printer
We use Formlabs SLS (selective laser sintering) 3D printers to produce functional prototypes and ready-to-use finished components as individual parts or in small series. On these machines, we process anthracite PA12 or PA11 in an installation space of up to around 165 x 165 x 300 mm. The layer thickness is 0.11 mm and the tolerance is approx. 0.05 mm, depending on the geometry.
In this process, the plastic powder is melted together layer by layer in the powder bed using a laser.
Advantages
- precise printouts
- Good surface quality
- Freedom of geometry as no support structures are required
- Series production profitable
- Fully usable components possible
Disadvantages
- slightly more expensive
- Limited installation space
