FDM builds large thermoplastic parts, jigs, fixtures and shop tooling in one piece. Engineering thermoplastics such as ULTEM cover applications where stiffness or heat resistance matter, so Seattle workshops and engineering teams get a fixture or housing sized for the job rather than glued from sections.

SLA resin printing captures fine detail with smooth surfaces straight off the printer. It is a strong choice for presentation models, clear or translucent parts and fit checks before tooling, giving designers, researchers and product teams a part they can hold, review and photograph.
- Build volume
- 1500mm x 750mm x 550mm
- Layer height

When plastic will not do, DMLS produces metal parts in aluminum, stainless steel and titanium for functional tests and production use. Complex internal channels, thin walls and consolidated assemblies come out as one part, so engineers can test a manifold or bracket in the intended metal.

Parts made to your specification, finished and ready to use
Metal, plastic and resin production run in one workflow, so a Seattle design can move from a single prototype to a repeat run without switching suppliers. Send your drawings, material requirements and finishing priorities, and our team will confirm the process before producing every part to the same specification, whether you order one or several hundred.
Instrument enclosures
Nylon enclosures for sensors and electronics with threaded inserts installed and a dyed or smoothed finish, ready to close up around a board and mount in place.
Surface finishesAssembly jigs and fixtures
FDM fixtures that hold a component at the right angle for bonding, drilling or inspection, printed to fit your workflow rather than adapted from a catalog part.
FDM 3D printingMetal brackets and manifolds
DMLS aluminum brackets and fluid manifolds with internal channels for functional testing and low-volume production, for aerospace suppliers, researchers and startups alike.

Industries We Serve in Seattle
Every industry asks something different of a part. We help Seattle teams match the design, material, and manufacturing process to the job it needs to do.
3D Printing for Seattle's Manufacturing Landscape
Greater Seattle's aerospace suppliers, maritime businesses, and hardware developers share a practical challenge: fitting new designs into complex systems. Around Puget Sound, that can mean checking an instrument enclosure, routing cables through a tight assembly, or designing a fixture that holds a component where an operator needs it.
Forge Labs helps engineers work through those details with MJF 3D printing for nylon housings, brackets, and assembly aids. Teams can evaluate several design variations together, check fit on the bench, and refine the preferred version for a small production run. Custom tooling also supports aerospace assembly and inspection work without becoming part of the aircraft itself.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our 3D printing services in Seattle
- Where are parts for Seattle orders made?
- In North America. Forge Labs has significant manufacturing capacity in the United States, and Seattle orders are printed, finished and inspected before they ship, with next-day shipping anywhere in the US once production is complete.
- Do you offer FST-rated material for aircraft cabin parts?
- Yes. ULTEM 9085 is FST-rated according to supplier data, and Antero 800NA is also available for interior parts. Material certifications and inspection records are available on request for aerospace suppliers around Puget Sound.
- Can you make enclosures for maritime electronics?
- Instrument enclosures print in nylon with inserts installed and cable routes in the part, and UV-stable ASA suits housings exposed to sunlight on deck. Upload a revision and the next batch follows it, with no tooling to change.
- Do you make assembly jigs for aerospace and hardware production?
- FDM and nylon jigs hold housings and brackets square during drilling, bonding and inspection, and large FDM fixtures print in one piece. A drawing change means a reprint, not a new tool.
- How fast can Seattle teams get parts?
- Most plastic and resin parts can be printed in as little as one day, and metal brackets and manifolds start from four business days. Lead times are on your quote before you order; if you need parts sooner, chat with us.
