Three processes in‑house.
One supply chain.
FDM, resin, and reverse-engineering in our Vaughan facility. Industrial powder-bed and finishing through vetted partners we manage end-to-end. Pick the one that fits the part.
Fused Deposition Modeling
In-house · IDEX dual-extruder · 500 mm cubed
Layer-by-layer extrusion of engineering thermoplastics in a 500 mm-cubed envelope. Our workhorse for functional prototypes, brackets, fixtures, and short-run production. IDEX cells run independent dual extruders — soluble supports, two-material assemblies, plus copy mode (two parts at once) and mirror mode (left/right pairs in a single print).
Functional prototypes, jigs and fixtures, end-use brackets, short-run production, large single-piece parts.
Watertight resolution, optical-quality surfaces, parts under 0.5 mm wall thickness.
- Tolerance
- ±0.1 mm (0.004″) typical · ±0.05 mm (0.002″) critical
- Layer height
- 0.10 – 0.30 mm
- Build volume
- 500 × 500 × 500 mm
- System
- IDEX dual-extruder · Copy mode · Mirror mode
- Lead time
- 24 hr standard · same-day on simple parts
- Finish
- As-printed · sanded · painted · dyed (all in-house)
Resin / SLA / DLP
In-house · UV-cured photopolymer
Photopolymer cured layer-by-layer with UV. The right call when surface finish, fine features, or geometric fidelity matter more than mechanical durability. Engineering resins available for snap-fits, heat resistance, and elastomer behavior.
Fine-detail prototypes, presentation models, dental/medical fixtures, casting masters.
Long-term outdoor use, high-impact parts, parts under sustained UV.
- Tolerance
- ±0.05 mm (0.002″) typical · ±0.025 mm (0.001″) fine features
- Layer height
- 0.025 – 0.10 mm
- Build volume
- 145 × 145 × 180 mm
- Lead time
- 48 hr standard
- Finish
- Matte as-printed · sanded · painted · dyed (all in-house)
3D Scanning & reverse engineering
In-house · scan → CAD → printable STEP
Sub-millimeter capture of physical parts, then reconstructed as parametric CAD ready for modification or remanufacture. The right tool for legacy components, worn assemblies, or undocumented parts you need to reproduce.
Legacy / obsolete part replacement, dimensional verification, worn part recovery.
Highly reflective, transparent, or sub-millimeter detail surfaces without prep.
- Accuracy
- Sub-millimeter dimensional reconstruction
- Outputs
- STEP · IGES · STL · parametric CAD on request
- Scan volume
- Up to ~500 × 500 × 500 mm typical
- Lead time
- 5 days scan-to-CAD typical
- Deliverables
- CAD file + dimensional report + printed verification (optional)
Partner network
Via partners · industrial powder-bed and finishing
Capabilities outside our in-house cells, fulfilled through vetted partners we route to directly. We manage the brief, quality check the parts, and ship from Vaughan — same single point of contact.
Industrial Nylon batches (MJF/SLS), vapor smoothing for ABS/ASA, anodizing for metal substrates.
Same-day turnaround, bespoke material development.
- Processes
- MJF · SLS (powder-bed Nylon) · Vapor smoothing · Anodizing
- Tolerance
- ±0.3 mm typical (process dependent)
- Build volume
- Up to 380 × 284 × 380 mm (MJF)
- Lead time
- 5 – 10 days typical
- Quality
- Inspected at Vaughan before shipment
Side-by-side, at a glance.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FDM | ±0.1 mm | 0.10–0.30 | 500×500×500 | 24 hr | Functional prototypes · large parts |
| Resin | ±0.05 mm | 0.025–0.10 | 145×145×180 | 48 hr | Fine detail, smooth |
| Scan → CAD | Sub-mm | — | ~500³ | 5 days | Legacy / undocumented |
| MJF | ±0.3 mm | 0.08 | 380×284×380 | 5–10 days | Industrial Nylon batches |
