Core Advantages Support Manufacturing

Flexible solutions and advanced production capabilities allow you to easily manufacture and deliver prototypes

High flexibility in production

Three-dimensional solids of any complex shape can be manufactured. If you want to produce part models of different shapes, you only need to adjust the model file, readjust and set the parameters.

Highly integrated design and manufacturing

The production process of 3D printing is directly driven by the three-dimensional model, realizing the seamless connection from the model to the actual object, and truly realizing the integration of design and manufacturing. It is a typical embodiment of digital design and manufacturing technology.

Common Industrial Surface Treatments

At PCBWay, we offer a variety of common surface treatments that help improve functionality and aesthetics.

Spray painting High gloss paint
Spray painting - High gloss paint

Spray painting: Using spray guns with air pressure to disperse into uniform and fine droplets and apply the painting to the surface of the object. Application: generally used in the appearance of smart hardware, home appliances, and plastic parts.

Vacuum plating High gloss paint
Vacuum plating - High gloss paint

Vacuum plating mainly includes vacuum evaporation, sputtering and ion plating. They are all used to deposit various metal and non-metal films on the surface of plastic parts through distillation or sputtering under vacuum conditions. It can get very thin surface coating. Detail sanding would proceed for these parts in order to achieve the best surface effect after plating.Features: fast speed and good adhesion.
Application: functional coatings for higher-end products, household appliances, and cosmetic packaging.

1000 sanding
#1000 sanding

Sanding is the use of fine abrasive sand particles to rub the surface of the product to produce a diffuse, non-linear texture effect. Adhere different abrasive grit to the backing paper or the back of the board, and the abrasive grit can be distinguished by different granularities according to the size: the higher the particle size, the finer the abrasive grit, so the surface effect is better.

Dyeing
Dyeing

Dyeing is done in a special solution containing dyes and particular chemical material. Dye molecules are fixed to the fiber by absorption, diffusion, or bonding with temperature and time being key controlling factors. Usually the result of dyeing will have a certain color difference.

Silkscreen
Silkscreen

Silkscreen generally refers to screen printing, which is the process of pressing ink through a stencilled mesh screen to create a printed design, graphics and text.
Kindly note that silkscreens can be made only on flat surfaces. ONLY Ai and svg formats are acceptable and meanwhile mark the dimension and placement on the 2D technical drawings.

Laser engraving
Laser engraving

Laser engraving is the use of laser technology to engrave text and pattern on objects. The characters engraved by this technology have no nicks, the surface of the object is smooth, and the text and pattern will not wear out.
Kindly note that laser engraving can be made only on flat surfaces. ONLY Ai and svg formats are acceptable and meanwhile mark the dimension and placement on the 2D technical drawings.

What are the advantages of 3D printed industrial models compared to traditional model making methods?

Rapid production: 3D printing can quickly produce complex geometric shapes and details, greatly shortening the production cycle.

Customizability: Customization can be carried out according to design requirements, and model size, shape and material can be flexibly adjusted.

Cost-Effectiveness: 3D printing can reduce the labor and material costs of making models.

Iterability: Easily carry out design iterations and modifications, speeding up product development and improvement.



What industries and application fields are 3D printed industrial models suitable for?

Automotive industry: used for design verification and assembly testing of automotive parts.

Aerospace: Used for the design and testing of aircraft components, such as engine components, cabin structures, etc.

Medical Devices: Used for the production and testing of medical equipment and human anatomy models.

Architecture and architectural design: For the production and presentation of architectural models.

Industrial Equipment: For design verification and functional testing of industrial machinery and equipment.


What are the material options for 3D printing industrial models?

3D printing industrial models can use a variety of materials, including plastics (such as ABS, nylon, polycarbonate), resins (such as light-curing resin), metals (such as titanium alloys, aluminum alloys), etc. The choice of material depends on the performance requirements of the desired model and the application scenario.
