Quotations and Ordering Process

You can receive an instant quote by uploading your CAD data. If you have any questions, our customer service is available to assist you.

Instant Quote & Order

Please refer to the technical guidelines for details such as allowing for hollowing, surface area in vapor smoothing, or internal channels and undercuts.


1. Upload 3D Data

Request an instant quote

Navigate to our online configurator (click the “Upload 3D Data” button), and click on Instant Quote. Upload your 3D data in STEP/STP or STL format. You can select the files or add them via “Drag & Drop.”


2. (optional) Catalog Function

Sample components in the catalog function

In the case of series or frequently ordered components, these can be saved in your catalog. This simplifies the ordering process and ensures consistent production, as information relevant to production is also stored.

  • Select the desired quantity and click on “Add to list”.
  • All individual components are then in the shopping cart and the order can be continued as usual.
  • Additional (new) components or other sets from the catalog can also be added to the shopping cart.

Two notes on the ordering process:

  • Quantity: The quantity refers to the entire project. Example: There are 5 components in the project, now select the quantity 5 – then there will be 25 components in your shopping cart.
  • Prices: The prices displayed in the catalog overview are not recalculated. The individual part prices of a set are multiplied by the quantity. A recalculation with quantity discount only takes place when you add to the shopping cart.

The following data can be stored in the catalog for each project:

  • CAD data of the component (saves having to upload the data again)
  • Configuration of the desired post-processing (coloring, post-processing, …)
  • Component orientation
  • Accompanying documents such as drawings, instructions for smoothing or painting, etc.

3. Configure Components

  • D) Production parameters layer thickness, print mode, tolerance: these cannot be selected, but specify the production parameters for reasons of transparency.
  • E) (optional) Post-processing: these are additional services beyond 3D printing:
    Surface finishing: an overview can be found here. Only for chemical smoothing: Decide on the support surface (more information).
    Component orientation: You can specify the orientation in which the component is to be manufactured. Please upload a technical drawing with instructions. We only recommend this option for experienced users.
    Quality and certificates: You can optionally select test reports (EMPB) and certificates (2.2 & 3.1).
  • F) Latest shipping date: Estimated shipping date determined on the basis of the production time (“C”) and the quantity. If there are several order items, the latest shipping date applies.
  • H) Quantity: the prices depend on the quantity.

After completing the configuration, you can add the respective model to the shopping cart.
Optionally, you can upload technical drawings and your order documents in the last step “Complete order”.
