Services
SHAP3D employs advanced technologies like Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) and Stereolithography (SLA) to offer distinguished 3D printing services. Every project submitted online is scrutinized by a certified design-for-manufacturing professional to identify potential flaws that could compromise the print or the component’s integrity. Our services also encompass Autodesk Certified CAD Design, specializing in mechanical design while incorporating design-for-manufacturing principles, and a precise 3D scanning service with laser and structured light scanning. These solutions are developed to facilitate a wide range of design needs, with each service adhering to stringent quality control standards and possessing its unique set of capabilities and limitations.
