Urban Development for Wind-Tunnel Testing

We recently completed this large model ready for wind tunnel testing
With a overall size of over 500 x 500 x 500mm, this job required the model to be split in to 9 seperate pieces, accurately printed. Glued and finished ready for sensors to be inserted to measure real-world pressure changes under different wind loading scenarious. You can see one of the sensor mounting points in the bottom right of the picture.

FDM - Fused Deposition Modelling

This is usually the cheapest, and definatly the fastest option.
We can print single pieces up to 300 x 300 x 600mm with this technology.

3D Printing & Scanning Training

Either come to our Sydney training facility, or we come to you. Take one of our standard courses, or have us prepare more personalised training.

SLS - Selective Laser Sintering

Tough parts with super smooth professional finishes made by fusing powder particles together. In somecases they are as cheap as FDM (nylon), but time lines are longer (usually 2-3 weeks)

Materials
• Nylon
• Stainless Steel
• Tool Steel
• Bronze
• Nickel Alloys

Resin (SLA or DLP)

This technology works with a liquid resin which sets (cures) when a UV light shines on it.
It is expensive to prime the tank and clean up afterwards, but produces smooth looking prints with very high detail. Jewelry and dental clients love the quality that is possible.

There are 2 technologies here:
• A laser with super-sharp focus for the smallest details (Stereo Litography / SLA), we have a Form1 printer for this purpose
• A Digital Projector focussed on the bottom of the resin tank (Digitial Light Processing / DLP), we use the Roland ARM-10 we use for this type of printing

Pre-Purchase Samples

Looking to see before you buy? Not a problem. We have a range of free, small samples, or we can even print your file on the machine of your choice for you in the material you want, so you can compare and access machines in a more practical, tangible way, before you buy.

We also have a number of cheap example prints, in stock and each selected as they showcase our 3D Printers capabilities
