Features
Check out the Slant 3D Sample Brick Below to see many of the features that can be created with production 3D Printing. You may also get more detail from this post as well as order a Free Sample Brick to evaluate and familiarize yourself with the 3D Printing process.
Maximum Build Volumes
We support a wide range of part sizes, but they must fit inside of our build volumes. Parts that are larger than these build volumes cannot be printed and must be broken into smaller components

Colors
Colors
Slant 3D maintains an inventory of common Colors (shown below). Though through a number of supplier relationships we have access to and can support nearly any color commercially available. If you have prototyped your product with a specific brand and color we can likely implement the exact same material and color. Speak with you sales engineer at quoting to verify.
At large quantities (>100KG of material per run) Slant 3D supports pantone-matching of material. This does require a longer lead time but can be applied to most of our standard plastic.

Materials
Slant 3D can manufacture parts with almost any material that is currently provided in a filament. Below are a few of our common materials.
If you are not certain what material you need for your project we are happy to go through the capabilities of different materials and make a recommendation when we quote your project.

PLA
PLA is a plant-based plastic. It is mechanically rigid and has a glossy finish. It is an ideal option for simple consumer products which have indoor applications. It is also an ideal option for consumables since it is a biodegradable plastic.

ABS-Substitute Ingeo 870
Ingeo 870 is a new plastic that is mechanically similiar to ABS. It is also more thermally resistant than PLA. If you need a functional part that is not in a high temp environment then this is an ideal material

TPU
TPU is a flexible material with properties similar to rubber. It is often used for making mechanical parts such as hinges or button covers where compliance is necessary.

PETG
PETG is a strong and chemically resistant plastic with high temperature resistance. While a more expensive plastic it is often a good alternative to ABS.
