Looking for a Specific 3D Printing Material? We Can Build It

At Truform, we specialise in custom, hybrid, and experimental builds — bringing complex ideas to life through smart engineering and process integration. We support custom requirements such as large-format 3D printing services, silicone 3D printing services, metal-plated polymers, or custom hybrid materials. Quite simply, if you can model it, we can build it.

The Benefits of Our 3D Printing Services

Our 3D printing services are designed to make high-quality production simple, flexible, and fast — supporting your creative process from prototype to final product. Here are the benefits of working with us:

FAQs

What is 3D printing?

3D printing, otherwise known as additive manufacturing, describes the process of turning a design into a physical object by adding material rather than subtracting material in the conventional method. It is used for prototypes, end-use parts, and customised products across many industries.

How does 3D printing work?

A printer deposits or solidifies material — such as plastic, resin, or metal powder — according to design data until the full object is formed. The process allows for precise, complex geometries that traditional manufacturing can’t easily achieve.

How much does a 3D printing service cost?

Costs vary depending on size, material, and complexity. At Truform, we’re committed to keeping costs low through the provision of on-demand services, allowing you to print as much or as little as you need. This reduces waste and excess stock, whilst keeping costs low. Get in touch with us for a quote.

What is CW in 3D printing?

“CWS” or “CW” can refer to Continuous Wave Sintering. It is a laser-based additive process that uses a continuous laser beam to fuse powdered material - typically resulting in smoother surfaces.

What is the cost of 3D printing prototype service?

Prototype prices depend on size, accuracy, and material. Our agile model gives you the flexibility to print on demand. What’s more, our experienced team will support you in optimising your design and selecting the strongest materials for a better outcome.

How long does it take to 3D print something?

Print time can range from 30 minutes to several days. Small, simple parts may print in under an hour, while large or high-resolution models can take over 24 hours. When you print with Truform, we utilise our manufacturing network to print your design locally to you where possible, reducing lead times and ensuring you receive your product faster.

What is infill in 3D printing?

Infill refers to the internal structure inside a 3D printed object. It adds strength while reducing material use. Common infill patterns include grid, honeycomb, and gyroid — with densities ranging from 10% (lightweight) to 100% (solid).

What industries use 3D printing the most?

The main industries include aerospace, automotive, medical and dental, architecture, and consumer products. These sectors rely on 3D printing for prototyping, lightweight components, and customised designs.

Can you 3D print in different colours?

Yes. Multi-colour printing is possible using dual extruders, filament swaps, or full-colour binder jetting. A broad scope of post-printing options, including coating and spraying, means your options are vast. So, you can really make a product your own.
