Part Reproduction

With the use of several different techniques, we can 3D print a reproduction part to replace old, weathered, worn, or broken plastic parts. 

 

We can print single parts as big as 10in x 10in x 10in. If your part is larger, it may be able to be printed as multiple parts and assembled to make the whole part.

​

Since we deliver 3D printed parts in-the-raw, most parts will require finishing once you receive them. This may include sanding, trimming, and painting if desired.

​

This process requires that you send in the original part which will be returned to you at the same time as your 3D printed part. While in our care, your original part will be well looked after and cataloged to your project.

Things to consider

  • How big is my part?

  • What type of surface finish do I need?

  • Is my part decorative or functional?

  • Is my part subject to the outdoor elements, high heat, or cold?

  • What types of chemicals or fluids is my part exposed to?

What can you reproduce?

Really, any part that can fit on the print bed and is of suitable material can be reproduced. Below are some examples to help stir your ideas.

Parked at the Theater

Emblems and Badging

Automotive emblems to replace worn or broken originals.

Lightening Car

Transparent Lenses

Many transparent filaments are available.

Tangled

Brackets and Fasteners

Brackets are often damaged in the removal process but we may reproduce them.

Rubber Gaskets

Cushions and Grommets

TPU can be used for flexible and elastic parts.

Car AC

Bezels and Inlays

Items all around us have plastic bezels and inserts that can be reproduced.

Bright Idea Bulb

 And more...

Our reproduction process

1

After you accept your quote, send us the part you would like reproduced.

4

The final 3D model is prepared for the printing process.

2

Using a 3D scanner, we create a digital model of the part.

5

The model is printed and checked for a quality outcome.

3

We digitally repair the part, if needed, using 3D modeling tools.

6

Your original part and the newly printed part are shipped promptly to you.

* Above is a typical representation of the process. Your project will differ depending on the details of your project.
