3D printing is the ability to create or recreate a physical object from a 3D scan or CAD.
At Replicate 3D we work with clients where we have carried out the 3D scan and clients who provide us with a 3D scan. When creating a physical object, it's important for us to fully understand how the product will be used. This will enable our qualified team to make suggestions to you on which material it would be best to use during the manufacturing process. Replicate 3D have experience in using a wide variety of functional materials. We also offer full-colour 3D printing which is commonly used in the architecture, archaeology and design industries. What types of 3D printing do we offer?Depending on what you are looking to have printed and the materials required will depend on which of our 3D printers we use for your project. Here are some examples of what we are able to 3D print.
Modix - Big Meter 3D printer
This is one of the larger printers at Replicate 3D. It allows us to create objects up to 1m cubed.
It's ideal for creating good value prototypes that can be tested to fit prior to machining in metal. We have used this machine to create;

Resin Printer
Our resin printers allow us to create high detailed resin for intricate models and prototypes.
We have even used this printer to make end use parts. One example being a part for a tea urn for our local fire station. Click below to contact us if we can help you.
Creality
Using our creality machines we are able to produce small run batches. These have proven ideal for UK companies who do not require the quantities needed to buy from China - or don't wish a very long lead and shipping time.
