Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)

SLS turns a demanding design into a durable nylon part that can be handled, assembled and tested straight away. Living hinges, snap fits and thin walls print reliably, which is why product teams use it for functional prototypes and then keep the same process for repeat production.

Made in Canada for Montreal

Montreal design studios, startups and manufacturers get parts made in Canada, from a first prototype to a finished batch. Engineering support helps match precision, material and finish to the project, online quoting shows pricing and lead times before you commit, and completed parts ship across Quebec.

Parts made to your specification, finished and ready to use

Precision starts with the right process and material, and that choice carries from prototype to production so a Montreal project does not change character from the prototype to the production batch. Tell us the tolerances, the surfaces that matter and the finish you expect, and we build the run to that brief.

  • Drill jigs and assembly fixtures

    FDM and nylon fixtures that locate parts for drilling, bonding and inspection, printed to the drawing and replaced when the assembly changes.

  • Presentation and fit models

    SLA models with smooth, paint-ready surfaces for design reviews, plus clear resin parts that show internal features to a client or a test panel.

  • Housings with inserts

    MJF and nylon housings with threaded inserts installed and bead blasted, ready for screws and boards without secondary work on your bench.

How every order is kept consistent

A quality system built for ISO 9001
Steam, our manufacturing system, keeps the batch, material and inspection records for each order. First article inspection and dimensional reports are available on request.
Finishing chosen when you quote
Choose the finishing your part needs, from dyed or smoothed surfaces to bead blasting, paint and installed inserts, with the available options shown when you quote. Surface finishes
Engineering support before production
Uploads are checked for manufacturability, and our team helps with material, process and finish decisions so the first part and the five-hundredth are built the same way.

3D Printing for Montreal's Manufacturing Landscape

Greater Montreal's aerospace and life sciences sectors bring together equipment manufacturers, engineering teams, and research labs. Beyond the finished aircraft or medical device, development depends on practical parts: inspection fixtures, assembly guides, instrument housings, and models for evaluating how a product will be used.

Forge Labs helps teams develop those supporting parts through FDM 3D printing for thermoplastic tooling and functional prototypes. A fixture shaped around a specific component can simplify positioning during assembly, while a full-size mockup lets engineers check access and handling before finalizing the design.

Industry Focus

Aerospace Manufacturing in Montreal

Montreal's aerospace cluster, including Bombardier, Pratt & Whitney, and CAE, leverages 3D printing for lightweight components, engine parts, and complex assemblies that meet aviation industry standards.

Aerospace Manufacturing 3D printing

Fit and finish

From tested assembly to repeat production

Parts that fit on screen still have to fit in the hand. Order the mating parts together, check how they seat and look, and carry the final material, colour and finish into repeat production for Montreal and Quebec projects.

Appearance is part of the specification

Colour and surface treatments such as painting or vapor smoothing are chosen per part, so the finished look is on the order rather than assumed. Surface finishes

We offer 50+ advanced materials including high-performance polymers, engineering plastics, biocompatible resins, and metal alloys. Our material selection tool and expert team can help you choose the optimal material based on your application requirements, mechanical properties needed, and budget considerations.
What is the typical turnaround time for 3D printing orders for Montreal?
Our minimum lead time for Montreal is 24 hours for standard parts, with most orders completed within 2-5 business days. Rush orders can often be accommodated with same-day or next-day delivery across Quebec. Lead times depend on part complexity, material selection, and order volume.
Can I get a prototype 3D printed before committing to a larger production run?
Absolutely! We encourage prototyping before production runs. Our instant quoting system allows you to order single prototypes to test fit, form, and function. Once you're satisfied with the prototype, scaling to production quantities of 10, 100, or 1000+ parts is seamless with consistent quality.
What are your lead times for Montreal orders?
Standard lead times for Montreal are 2-5 business days for most orders. We offer expedited 24-48 hour turnaround for urgent projects, and complex or large volume orders may require 5-10 business days. All orders include livraison express dans tout le Québec to ensure you receive your parts quickly.
