Custom 3D Printing Services

3D Printing, also known as Additive Manufacturing, is a technology that creates three-dimensional objects by layering materials. Unlike traditional subtractive manufacturing methods (such as milling or cutting), it builds objects layer by layer based on digital model files using various materials (e.g., plastics, metals, ceramics, etc.).

3D printing primarily uses the following technologies for prototyping and final part production:

• FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling): Melts thermoplastic filaments and layers them to form objects, commonly used for low-cost prototyping and personal printing.
• SLA (Stereolithography): Uses a laser to cure liquid resin through photopolymerization, layer by layer, suitable for high-precision printing.
• SLS (Selective Laser Sintering): Uses a laser to sinter powdered materials (e.g., plastics, metals) layer by layer, ideal for producing functional parts.
• DLP (Digital Light Processing): Similar to SLA but uses digital light projection for curing, offering faster printing speeds.

By using our 3D printing services, you can benefit from the following:

• Design Freedom: Enables the creation of complex geometries that are difficult to achieve with traditional methods.
• Rapid Prototyping: Shortens product development cycles and allows for quick design validation.
• Customization: Supports personalized and small-batch production.
• Waste Reduction: Uses only the necessary materials, minimizing waste.
• Cost Reduction: Especially in small-batch production, reduces the need for molds and tooling costs.

The cost of 3D printing services can vary depending on several factors, including:

Material Type: Different materials (plastics, metals, resins, etc.) have varying costs, with specialty materials typically being more expensive.

• Complexity of Design: More intricate or detailed designs usually require more time and effort to print, which can increase the price.
• Part Size: Larger parts require more material and time to print, so they generally cost more.
• Quantity: Ordering multiple parts may reduce the unit price due to economies of scale.
• Post-Processing: Some prints may require additional finishing steps like sanding, painting, or assembly, which can add to the cost.
• Turnaround Time: Faster delivery or expedited services may incur additional charges.

At Kemal, we understand that achieving the best results for custom 3D printing parts requires selecting the right technology based on specific project requirements. Our FDM technology (fused deposition modeling) – based 3D printers typically offer tolerances in the range of +/-0.2mm, which is great for medium-large sized parts. On the other hand, we can achieve +/-0.05mm with SLA technology for high-precision prints with intricate details and smooth surfaces.

Our 3D printers, which feature SLS (selective laser sintering) technology, are ideal for producing parts with complex geometries and high strength with a tolerance range of +/-0.1mm. While our MJF-based 3D printers are known for producing strong, high-quality parts with a tolerance range of +/-0.2mm. Our team of experts works closely with clients to determine the appropriate technology based on the desired level of precision, surface finish, and strength.

Kemal understands the importance of ensuring the quality of your prints, as every high-tech 3D print company should. We have implemented various methods and processes to guarantee the quality of your 3D printed parts, including:

Audits: We regularly audit our 3D printing processes and equipment to ensure they function optimally and produce consistent, high-quality results.

Inspection reports: We provide inspection reports for each 3D printed part, detailing the dimensions, tolerances, and other relevant information to ensure your parts meet the correct specifications.

Individual inspections: Our team inspects each part to ensure it meets the required quality standards, including checking for defects or imperfections.

Quality control processes: We have implemented rigorous quality control processes throughout our production facility to ensure that each part we manufacture is of the highest standards.

Material testing: We conduct material testing to ensure your parts are made of the highest grade of materials.

Experienced staff: our team of experienced 3D printing experts has the knowledge and expertise to identify and address any issues that may arise during production.

There are several factors you should consider when it comes to selecting the proper 3D printing process. Here are some ways to identify what 3D printing technology suits you the best:

1. The complexity and geometry of your parts significantly impact this choice, and parts with intricate details and delicate features may require high-precision processes such as SLA or SLS.
2. Different 3D printing processes are compatible with different materials, so the choice of the process will depend on the specific material requirements of the part.
3. The production volume of the part impacts the choice of the 3D printing process, and processes such as SLA or FDM are more suitable for low-volume production.
4. Processes like FDM requires additional post-processing to achieve a smooth surface finish; on the other hand, processes like SLA provides a smooth finish and doesn’t require any further surface finishing.
5. 3D printing service and process costs are also important; some processes may be more expensive.
6. The time required for a 3D printing process to print a part can gradually increase or decrease the overall cost, and some processes may have longer lead times than others.

By working with a well-experienced 3D print company like Kemal, you can receive expert guidance on selecting the best process for your 3d printing project.

There are several ways to reduce the cost of your 3D prints without sacrificing the quality of your parts. Lowering the 3D printing cost is a concern for many, and choosing the suitable material, printing technology, and surface finishes can reduce the cost of your parts. Furthermore, the volume of each part can significantly impact the cost, and reducing the size of the part or hollowing it out can dramatically reduce material use and lower the overall cost.

Remember that different printing technologies have different costs associated with them, and selecting the right 3D print company can also reduce the 3D printing service cost by a great margin. High-volume productions can save money on material and setup costs. Most importantly, working with an experienced 3D printing manufacturer like Kemal can make it possible to find ways to reduce the cost of your parts without compromising quality or performance.
