SLS
Creates strong, functional parts and low volume batch production. There is no tooling cost and helps bridge the gap to more costly traditional methods like injection moulding.
- Functional Parts
- No tooling Costs
- Complex parts
- Low Volume
FDM
If you’re looking for short-run production, design inspection and one-off prints, FDM could be the solution. Due to overhangs needing support material, complex design and shapes are not best suited to this process.
- Design Inspection
- One off Prints
- Strong Parts
- Functional Parts
SLA
The best suited for prototypes and surface finish. Although this 3D printing method requires support structures and can leave surface scars, this is as near to the injection moulded finish that you can get.
- Functional Parts
- No tooling Costs
- Complex parts
- Low Volume
Our 3D Printers
Our online londond 3D printing shop utilises various printers, and they have their own limitations and uses. Take a look below to see what best suits your needs.

Materials
SLS
Selective Laser Sintering is the process of fusing nylon powder to create an incredibly strong part. No support material is needed for this type of printing.
Pros
- Best for functional parts
- UV resistant
- No support structure needed
- Complex shapes
Cons
- Brittle
- Can shrink and warp
- Minimum wall thickness of .8mm
- Not UV Resistant
FDM
Fused Deposition Modeling is the process of laying down a melted plastic layer until the model is complete.
Pros
- Srong parts
- UV resistant
- Heat Resistant to 75 degrees
- One off prints
Cons
- Overhangs need supports
- Complicated geomitary
- Visible layer lines
- Weaker in Z direction
SLA
Stereolithography works by curing resin with UV light. This creates a great surface finish but brittle parts. Because supports are needed, this can leave surface scars.
Pros
- Prototypes
- Surface detail
- Heat Resistance
- Complex Shapes
Cons
- Brittle
- Needs Supports
- Support Scars
- Not UV Resistant
