Bring your next design to life with industrial 3D printing and local manufacturing, right here in Burnaby. From first prototypes to production parts, we help teams across Vancouver and BC turn ideas into products, with engineering support to find the right material and process. Get an online quote and pick up your finished parts at our Burnaby facility.
Metal, plastic and resin production sit under one roof in Burnaby, so a design can move from a single prototype to a repeat run without changing suppliers. Share your drawings, material requirements and finishing priorities with our team so your Vancouver project starts with a clear manufacturing brief.
Nylon and MJF enclosures for electronics and product prototypes, with threaded inserts installed and dyed or smoothed finishes ready for assembly.
Surface finishesFDM and SLS fixtures for your own assembly bench or production line, sized for large parts and reprinted as your process changes.
FDM 3D printingDMLS aluminum and stainless steel parts for load-bearing tests and low-volume production where a plastic part will not do.

Step 01
Automated file checks before production
Drop your CAD files and receive immediate manufacturability feedback. Critical geometry and wall checks run as soon as files are uploaded.
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.
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.
Steam DFM intelligence flags risks instantly while our manufacturing engineers adjust builds, tooling, and documentation to keep production compliant across repeat runs.
Traceability with controlled document revisions and corrective actions tracked on every order.
ISO-2859 sampling plans and Cp/Cpk monitoring keep production builds within spec.
Dimensional and functional validation before we transition any build into sustained production.
Engineers oversee every build from start to finish.
GR&R qualified metrology delivers CAD-overlaid reports and revision history for auditors.
Surface, color, and assembly checks confirm presentation-ready hardware every shipment.
Talk with our manufacturing engineers
Bring your next program into Forge Labs Steam, from prototype intake to sustained production with audit-ready quality.
Engineering, procurement, and operations teams use Forge Labs Steam to upload CAD, run instant manufacturability checks, and lock pricing in seconds without inbox tag or manual back-and-forth.
Every industry asks something different of a part. We help Vancouver teams match the design, material, and manufacturing process to the job it needs to do.
Metro Vancouver brings together clean technology developers, hardware designers, and film production teams. Their projects call for different kinds of physical models: an enclosure that fits a new energy monitoring device, a handheld product ready for user feedback, or a prop with details that need to read clearly on camera.
Forge Labs gives these teams a way to explore form as well as function. Our SLA 3D printing captures fine features and smooth surfaces for presentation models, enclosure prototypes, and prop masters. Testing the shape in person makes it easier to refine a grip, adjust an assembly, or prepare a design for painting and finishing.

The quickest way to settle a fit or feel question is to hold the part. Because these parts are made in Burnaby, Vancouver teams can quote a revision online, check it against the mating components, and have the next version under way while the findings are still fresh.
