3D printing service in Thuringia, GermanyFrom idea to finished part. Everything from one source.
We design, scan and print prototypes, spare parts and small series in plastic and metal – from a single part.
FDM, SLA, SLS, MJF and SLM (metal). Plus design, 3D scanning and post-processing. One contact instead of five suppliers.
It doesn’t start with the process. It starts with your project.
A sketch, a CAD file or a broken original part: bring what you have. We take care of the rest – or exactly the step you need.
Design & engineering
CAD-based 3D and 2D design, optimisation for 3D printing and technical drawings.
3D scanning & reverse engineering
Capture existing parts precisely and reconstruct clean CAD models from them.
3D printing & contract manufacturing
Single parts, samples and small series in plastic or metal, with the right process.
Post-processing
Dyeing, blasting, chemical smoothing, threaded inserts and laser engraving.
Assembly
Assembled instead of loose: with screws, inserts, bearings and purchased parts – inspected and ready to install.
Consulting & training
Which process, which material, which tolerance? Personal advice and training for your team.
5 processes. One question: what does your part need to do?
Strength, surface finish, level of detail, quantity and budget decide how we print. We recommend the process and explain our choice in the quote.
Robust & cost-effective
Functional parts, fixtures, housings and larger components. Materials include PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA, PC and PA.
More about FDM →Detail & surface finish
Fine details, smooth surfaces and tight tolerances. For visual samples, precision mechanics and accurate fits.
More about SLA →Complex & durable
Functional parts without support structures: snap fits, clips, movable assemblies and small series in PA12, PA11 or TPU.
More about SLS →Series & function
Dense, uniform parts in PA12, PA11, PP or TPU – ideal for small and larger series.
More about MJF →High-strength & lightweight
Laser powder bed fusion in stainless steel, aluminium or titanium. Including internal channels and lightweight structures that can hardly be milled.
More about SLM (metal) →Not sure? Find your process in 5 questions
Load, surface, shape, quantity, size: answer five short questions and get an instant first recommendation – we make the final choice together in the quote.
Start the guide →Parts that have to work every day
From the holder on the production line to the spare part for a classic car: our parts are made for real tasks in workshops, production and development.
Mechanical engineering & fixtures
Holders, gripper parts, gauges and functional components, made to fit your process.

Prototypes & samples
Fast, functional, close to series. For testing and presenting before tooling costs arise.

Spare parts
Even without drawings or original data: we scan or measure and remake the part.

Classic cars & motorsport
Reconstruct parts that are no longer available, lightweight design for rally use.
More about classic cars & motorsport →Templates & gauges
Assembly aids, drilling and inspection gauges that prevent errors and save time.

Metal & lightweight parts
Topology-optimised parts that can hardly be milled, in stainless steel, aluminium or titanium.

From printed part to ready-to-install component
A part is rarely finished when it comes out of the printer. That’s why finishing is part of our service – you receive a part you can install right away.
Personal service instead of an anonymous upload form
You talk directly to the person who designs and manufactures your part. Short lines of communication, clear agreements – from the first conversation to delivery.
Made for industry, construction and motorsport
Example: a topology-optimised aluminium bracket made by SLM (metal), 104 × 68 × 88 mm – lighter than milled, just as strong.

Frequently asked questions
Technical terms about processes and materials: 3D printing glossary →
Which file formats can I send?
Ideally STEP, STL or 3MF. OBJ and common CAD formats also work. For a first contact, a sketch with dimensions or a photo is enough.
I don’t have a CAD file. Is that still possible?
Yes. We design from your sketch or scan your existing part and create a print-ready model from it.
Which process is right for my part?
That depends on load, surface, level of detail and quantity. Send us the part – we recommend process and material and explain our choice in the quote.
Is 3D printing worthwhile for single parts?
That’s exactly what it’s for. There are no tooling costs, so single parts, spare parts and small series are economical.
How fast will I get my part?
You receive your quote within 24 hours. Express delivery takes 2–3 days including shipping, standard 5 days. For design work or metal parts we state the date in the quote.
Do you also deliver outside Thuringia?
Yes. We ship your parts securely packed throughout Germany and beyond. On request we also deliver directly, or you can collect them in Schleusingen by appointment.
Will my data be treated confidentially?
Yes. We use your files only for your order and never pass them on. A non-disclosure agreement is possible on request.
Want to turn your idea into a finished part?
Send us CAD data, a photo, a sketch or the original part. We check feasibility, process and material and get back to you with an assessment and a quote.
