Industrial 3D Printing Technologies

EOS Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) delivers high-strength nylon parts with repeatable tolerances and an injection-moulded surface finish. Complex geometries print without support structures, and consistent properties in every direction make it ideal for functional prototypes and end-use parts, from a single part to repeat production.

Production built for scale

Metal, plastic and resin 3D printing run in our own facilities under one manufacturing system, so a design can move from a single prototype to a repeat run without changing suppliers. Production lead times are shown when you quote, and our technicians carry each order through building, finishing and inspection to the same specification.

Rapid prototyping to full-scale production, our systems keep programs moving while the same engineers guide each phase. Upload files for instant quotes or collaborate with our team to select the right mix of 3D printing materials and technologies for your build. Every build follows the same validated path: intake, qualification, automated production, and inspection, so your prototypes hand off to production without rework.

Manufacturing Quality assurance

Quality you can see

Forge Labs Steam orchestrates quoting, manufacturability feedback, and order execution, but every part still meets our quality lab before it ships. Automation accelerates the paperwork; engineers close the loop with metrology, documentation, and cosmetic sign-off.
