Components can be constructed in 20 micron layers with a turnaround time of a handful of days.
3D Printing is also offered by GPI making use of Objet’s 3D Printer. This top of the line printer can create parts in 16 micron layers in several durometers or digital blends for outstanding detail and get rid of the classic stair impact that is problematic with Stereolithography. For a wide variety of applications eight FullCure resins are accessible in each rigid and soft varieties. Prime-good quality, correct, clean prototypes can be built in hours and shipped to the client in a couple of days.
Extra services consist of Stereolithography (SLA), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), Room Temperature Vulcanization (RTV), Investment Casting, Tooling, CNC Machining, Finishing, Laser Scanning & Manufacturing/Packaging options. These solutions are priced quite competitively in the business even though providing the greatest in good quality and buyer service.
