3D Printing Service
We’ll use our incredibly advanced 3D technology and industrial 3D printing machines to create flawless, complex parts that would otherwise be a struggle to source for your project. In order to meet as many different requirements as we can, we have a variety of industrial 3D printing services and materials to choose from. Our 3D Printers use high grade and high-performance thermoplastics, photopolymers, and metals that are historically used in engineering – and manufactOururing processes. With our printers we can produce complex high-requirement parts in a fast and efficient manner while providing flexibility, responsiveness, and control that cannot be obtained with historical manufacturing processes. All produced parts have a smooth surface finish. Systems 3D Offers a Variety of 3D Printing Technologies. This includes our FDM 3D printing service.
Each of these processes leads to the creation of 3D printed products. However, the method used depends on exactly what is going to be manufactured. As well as the size, shape and material of the desired part.

FDM (FFF) – Fused Deposition Modelling
FDM manufacturing is the process of extruding a thermoplastic filament over a heated a extrusion tip and laying down the melted plastic in and organised pattern so as to create functional and usable items. Following is a list of the materials we work in and typical characteristics and applications for the respective materials.
Available Materials
Nylon 12
Combines strength with excellent fatigue properties
- Repetitive snap fits
- High fatigue resistance
- Strong chemical resistance
- Press (friction) fit inserts
- Tooling, jigs and fixtures
- Covers
- Panels
- Vibration resistant components
- Aerospace
- Automotive
- Motorsport
- Consumer goods
- Manufacturing of all types
ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate)
ASA is now the most popular all-purpose FDM thermoplastic used for FDM prototyping and for the production of functional end-use components. ASA exceeds the mechanical properties of ABS.
- Provides exceptional UV stability
- As a thermoplastic it is very strong
- Available in a wide range of colour and matte finish
- Offers the best aesthetics of any FDM thermoplastic
- Ideal for attractive prototypes
- Consumer sporting goods
- Tools and fixtures
- Automotive components and accessories.
- End-use parts
- Outdoor commercial use
- Infrastructure use
PLA (Polyactic Acid)
Is a bio-plastic derived from corn and is a very popular filament among the “maker crowd” due to its relatively inexpensive price and biodegradability.
- Hard
- Strong
- Low rate of thermal expansion
- Consumer (non-industrial) based applications
- Prototypes
- Functional models not requiring to be able to function under stress or load
- Indoor decorative applications for home and commercial use
Polycarbonate ISO (PC-ISO)
An industrial thermoplastic, which in its raw state, is biocompatible (ISO 10993 USP Class VI) and can be gamma or EtO sterilized. It is a strong, heat-resistant engineering plastic.
- Food and drug packaging
- Medical device manufacturing
Polycarbonate ABS (PC-ABS)
One of the most extensively used industrial thermoplastics in industry. This is because it contains a combination of properties from both materials both of which have properties that are desirable. PC offers heat resistance. ABS offers flexibility.
- Automotive
- Electronics
- Telecommunications
- Conceptual Modelling
- Functional Prototyping
- Manufacturing Tools
- End-use Parts
Polycarbonate (PC)
Lets engineers and designers combine the speed and agility of 3D printing with the reliability of the most widely used industrial thermoplastics. PC is a true industrial thermoplastic that creates strong parts that withstand functional testing.
- Automotive
- Aerospace
- Medical
- Coneptual Modelling
- Functional Prototyping
- Manufacturing Tools
- End-use parts (consumer & industrial)
- Many other applications
- Accuracy
- Durability
- Stability
- Superior mechanical properties to ABS and a number of other thermoplastics
