Skip the tooling. Start production now. Our additive manufacturing capabilities deliver production-quality parts in thermoplastics and resins — without the lead time or cost of injection molding or CNC machining.
From bridge production and pilot runs to full short-volume batches — we manufacture your parts in-house at our Minneapolis, MN and Denver, CO facilities. No outsourcing. No third-party markups.
Traditional manufacturing locks you into tooling costs that can run $10,000 to $100,000+ and lead times of 8–16 weeks. Additive manufacturing eliminates tooling entirely — so you can start production for a fraction of the cost and a fraction of the time.
| Factor | Additive Manufacturing (AM) | Injection Molding / CNC |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront Tooling Cost | $0 — None Required | $10,000 – $100,000+ |
| Lead Time to First Part | 2–5 Business Days | 8–16 Weeks |
| Part Complexity Cost | Same — complexity is free | More geometry = more cost |
| Design for Mass Customization | Yes — every part unique | No — one design per mold |
| Best for Volumes | 1 to ~10,000 parts | 10,000+ parts |
Validate market demand before committing to tooling.
Fill the gap while injection molding tooling is being built.
Produce exactly what you need — no excess inventory.
Mass customization — each part can be different.
Each technology has its sweet spot for production. We select the right technology based on your material requirements, volume, and part geometry — so you get the best outcome at the best cost.
Best for: Rugged functional parts, large components, and cost-effective production in engineering thermoplastics. Excellent for production jigs, fixtures, and structural parts.
Best for: Production-grade nylon parts with no support structures — enabling complex geometries and fine features at competitive per-part pricing at volume.
Best for: High-resolution, smooth-surface parts for consumer products, medical devices, and applications requiring fine surface detail or biocompatible materials.
Our pricing scales with your order quantity — and our additive manufacturing model means you never pay for tooling you don't need.
Ideal for: Design validation, investor demos, pre-production testing. Fast turnaround, no tooling cost.
Ideal for: Market validation, initial customer shipments, trade show inventory. Best price-to-lead-time balance.
Ideal for: Ongoing customer orders, service parts, seasonal demand. SLS and FDM at volume pricing.
Ideal for: Sustained production runs. We can schedule dedicated machine time for your ongoing production needs.
Not sure what volume tier fits your project? Upload your design and quantity — we'll recommend the best technology and give you exact pricing for your order size.
We treat production runs the same as prototypes — with the same rigorous process controls, material handling, and quality inspection. Your parts will be consistent from the first part to the last.
Every production part is visually inspected and measured. Dimensional reports are available on request for every production run.
Every build is tracked by lot number — material batch, machine, operator, and build parameters. Full traceability for regulated industries.
Our machines are calibrated regularly and builds are standardized. Your second order will match your first — no variation.
Minneapolis and Denver run the same processes, the same materials, and the same quality standards. If one facility is busy, your order moves to the other — with no difference in quality.
Upload your design files, tell us your quantity and timeline, and we'll get you a detailed production quote — typically within one business day. No commitment required.
