3D Printing

Pioneering 3D Printing in Namibia

At Printhoek 3D, we are the first professional and public 3D printing Service Bureau in Namibia, equipped with a print farm of 10 in-house 3D printers. With 7 years of hands-on experience, mechanical engineering, and design expertise, we proudly offer both in-house and outsourced 3D printing services from our trusted overseas partners.

Our In-House 3D Printing Services: Quick and Quality Solutions

  • FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling): Think of this like a hot glue gun that lays down melted material layer by layer, building up your design. It’s perfect for prototypes, parts, and models made from plastic.

     

  • SLA (Stereolithography): Imagine a pool of liquid that turns solid where a laser hits it. SLA can create highly detailed and smooth objects. It’s excellent for small intricate designs.

Outsourced 3D Printing Technologies: Advanced and Specialized Options

  1. DMLS (Direct Metal Laser Sintering): This technique uses a laser to melt and fuse metal powder together, creating complex metal parts. Imagine printing metal just like paper – it’s a reality now!
  2. SLS (Selective Laser Sintering): Similar to DMLS, but with plastic, ceramic, or glass. It’s great for strong, functional prototypes.
  3. MJF (Multi Jet Fusion): Think of inkjet printing, but in 3D! Multiple jets spray binding material, creating colorful and detailed objects.
  4. PolyJet/MJP (Multi Jet Printing): A highly accurate method that can print in various materials. Like printing a photograph, but in 3D, with lifelike textures and colors.
  5. Binder and Wax Jetting: This is like watercolor painting in 3D. Colorful inks are jetted onto materials, solidifying them into full-color objects.

Materials We Work With:

From metals like Aluminum, Titanium, Bronze, and Stainless Steel to various types of Nylon and specialized resins, our materials are suited for a broad spectrum of applications.

Hybrid Manufacturing:

Need a combination of both traditional and additive manufacturing? We can make that happen through our reliable outsourcing channels.
