Protolabs’ additive manufacturing is delivered through a wide range of production technologies, including Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Stereolithography (SLA), Multi Jet Fusion (MJF), PolyJet (3D printed silicone) and Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS – for metal parts). All in a wide range of materials – both plastics and metals.
Get design feedback from our experienced engineering team that has helped thousands of customers develop their products and bring them to market with high quality 3D printed parts. We will also work with you to determine optimal part orientation based on your application's requirements.
Across our five 3D printing technologies, we use a range of commercial-grade thermoset resins, and thermoplastic and metal powders to 3D print parts that are suitable for various part applications and industries.
Our industry-leading tolerances and surface finish quality stems from a dedicated process engineering and quality team for each 3D printing technology. We also offer a proprietary material called MicroFine™, which can build features as small as 0.07mm.
Our facility is home to more than 120 3D printing machines that produce metal and plastic parts. This means we'll always have capacity when you need parts fast.
"It has been very enlightening to us here at HP that we are able to get parts so rapidly out of the actual materials that we’re going to use in the final production.
Protolabs is actually reducing our design cycles, the timeframe that our design cycles go through"
