Our Services

3Faktur is an industrial 3D printing service provider. On behalf of our more than 2,500 clients from mechanical engineering, medical technology, automotive, high-tech, orthopedics and many other industries, we manufacture plastic components as series parts (“Additive Manufacturing”) or custom-made (“Rapid Prototyping“) using 3D printing.
More than 120,000 additive series components leave our factory annually. We attach great importance to the direct control of our production processes in order to optimally coordinate all processes: from the production-oriented design for additive manufacturing and optimally coordinated 3D printers to the integrated and largely automated process chain consisting of post-processing and quality assurance.

PA 12 W (White)

PA 12 W, the first white material for Multi Jet Fusion, is as resilient and durable as gray PA 12 and can be colored as desired. It maintains color stability and mechanical properties even when exposed to UV radiation.

PA 11

PA 11, sourced from renewable resources, surpasses PA 12 in flexibility and impact resistance. The material’s toughness makes it ideal for film hinges, snap fasteners, and robust orthoses.

Refinement & Finishing


Coloring of 3D printed components

Dyeing

Whether black, white, base color, spot color or color matching, we can offer them a colorful assortment of colors.

Dyeing

Post-processing of 3D printed components - Shot peening

Shot Peening

Surface treatment resulting in densification, increased scratch resistance and improvement of haptics as well as aesthetics.

Shot Peening

Post-processing option of 3D printed parts - Vapor Smoothing

Vapor Smoothing

Surface treatment (chemical smoothing) with the help of a solvent. The result is a smooth and almost non-porous surface, which is gas- and waterproof.

Manufacturing Technology


3Faktur employees on Multi Jet Fusion systems

Multi Jet Fusion is a powder-based additive manufacturing technology. The process was developed specifically for industrial use and therefore differs significantly from more prototype-oriented 3D printing technologies.

3Faktur was one of the first users of Multi Jet Fusion and is now one of the top 10 users of this technology in Europe. This specialization enables us to create a highly optimized production environment with quality oriented processesa extensive process chain and an industry-leading level of automation..
