Why Slant
No tooling cost
Injection molds run $10k–$100k+ before part one. With additive, your file is the tool — start producing today.
No MOQs
Order 100 or 1,000,000. No minimums, no warehouse full of unsold inventory.
Iterate without retooling
Email a new STL — that's the change order. Test infinite variations without cutting new steel.
Production in days, not months
Skip overseas tooling and freight. Farms run in the US, parts ship domestically.
How it works
- 1
Upload your part
Drop in an STL or STEP. Our engineers optimize it for additive mass production.
- 2
Quote any volume
From 1 prototype to 1,000,000 parts — pricing across volumes, materials, and colors.
- 3
Produced and shipped
Hundreds of printers run in parallel. We post-process, pack, and ship direct to your dock.
Use cases
Replace injection molding
Up to ~250,000 units, additive typically beats molding on cost once tooling is counted in.
Bridge production
Ship product while tooling is being cut, or validate demand before committing to a mold.
Long-tail SKUs
Keep low-volume parts alive without warehousing thousands of units. Reprint from the file.
