03Materials

Two metals, chosen on purpose

We print Grade 23 titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) and 17-4 PH stainless steel, and only those two. Deep process control on two alloys beats a thin menu of twenty.

Fatigue critical titanium goes out for HIP. 17-4 gets H900 age hardening. Both run through trusted partners, and we tell you that up front.

FAQ

Common questions

See all questions
What is a contract manufacturer?

OEMs, the companies that design medical devices and other products, need a manufacturing partner they can trust. We build designs handed to us by other companies, from first prototype to full production.

How does 3D printing give you an advantage?

Speed, complexity, and accessibility. Parts that are too difficult, too costly, or too low volume to machine efficiently with traditional methods are often a great fit for 3D printing.

Which material should I choose, titanium or stainless steel?

Grade 23 titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) is light, strong, and biocompatible, the go to for implants and weight sensitive parts. 17-4 PH stainless steel is harder and handles heat well, a good fit for suppressors, tooling, and rugged hardware. Not sure? Compare them on our materials page.

What is your average lead time?

About 3 weeks for in-house work. Rush options are available on request.
