Trusted by Top Companies
Printing Technology
Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF)
Fused filament fabrication is the most prevalent type of consumer and prosumer 3D printing.
- Offers large build volumes (up to 1ft x 1ft x 2ft)
- Huge material selection
- Low cost
- Dual Extrusion
- Adaptive for speed or quality
Stereolithography (SLA)
StereoLithography, the king of detail and surface finish uses a laser to cure liquid photopolymer resins.
- High detail, high resolution
- Excellent surface finish
- Specialty materials (biomedical, high temp)
- Closest to injection molding
- Fully solid isotropic parts
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)
Selective Laser Sintering is one of the most efficient forms of 3D printing which makes it suitable for batch production.
- Batch Production
- Consistent surface finish (sand blasted look)
- Great dimensional accuracy
- Close to isotropic parts (~80% on Z)
- Strong nylon material
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work with confidential or NDA-protected projects?
Yes, the majority of our print on demand orders are proprietary designs under NDA. If you have any questions about this please contact us.
What file formats do you accept?
.stl, .obj, .stp, .step, .3mf — up to 150 MB each.
What 3D printers do you use?
We have a range of 3D printers
FFF: Ultimaker, Raise3D, Bambu Lab
SLA: Formlabs Form 4 / Form 4L
SLS: Formlabs Fuse 1
We choose printers based on best output or size requirements.
What is the best material?
The best material depends on your application. We have access to a range of materials across three printing technologies that can address needs for strength, cost efficiency, surface finish, high temperature environments or chemical resistance.
For most standard 3D prints we recommend using PLA.
If you're not sure about what material is best for you please contact us for a free consultation.
Can you reverse engineer an existing part?
You can contact us about our 3D design and 3D scanning services.
I only have a sketch or idea. Can you help?
If you do not have a 3D model you can contact us about our 3D design services.
What post-processing options do you offer?
We do:
- Remove FFF supports (SLA for an additional fee)
- Sift/bead blast of SLS parts
We don't
- Paint or dye parts
- Sand / vapor smooth parts
- Assemble multi-part prints
How can I order a custom 3D print online?
Shop3D.ca uses an automatic quoting software to provide instant 3D printing quotes. Order your 3D print by clicking here if you're shipping to Eastern Canada or clicking here if you're shipping to Western Canada.
What are the typical costs for custom 3D printed parts in Canada?
The cost of a print depends on a few different factors:
- Print technology
- Material choice
- Size of the part
- Volume of material used
- Shipping
The best way to determine the cost of your print is to upload your file for an instant price.
