Our 3D Printing Capabilities
FDM
Compatible with a broad range of materials and used for prototyping or end-use production, FDM extrudes melted filament through a nozzle, building the part layer by layer.
Maximum build size
Up to 500 x 500 x 500 mm (19.68” x 19.68” x 19.68”)
Lead time
From 3 business days
Dimensional accuracy
± 0.5% with a lower limit of ± 0.15 mm (± 0.006″)
Layer height
100-300 μm
Infill 20-100%
SLA
Sterolithography (SLA) produces parts layer by layer, using light to crosslink monomers and oligomers to form rigid polymers photochemically. SLA is used to make marketing samples, packaging mock-ups, and non-functional conceptual samples.
Maximum build size
Up to 145 × 145 × 175 mm (5.7″ x 5.7″ x 6.8″)
Lead time
From 6 business days
Dimensional accuracy
± 0.5% with a lower limit of ± 0.15 mm (± 0.006″)
Layer height
25-100 um
PolyJet
Jets layers of liquid photopolymer onto build surface and cured to harden. PolyJet is also capable of multi-color and multi-material 3D printing.
Maximum build size
Up to 380 x 250 x 200 (19.46” x 9.84” x 7.87”)
Standard lead time
9 business days
Dimensional accuracy
± 0.1% with a lower limit of ± 0.1 mm (± 0.004″)
Layer height
32 μm
SLS
A 3D printing process that uses a computer-controlled laser to sinter a powdered material (such as Nylon or polyamide) layer by layer. The process produces accurate, high-quality parts that require minimal post-processing and supports.
Maximum build size
Up to 300 x 300 x 300 mm (11.8” x 11.8” x 11.8”)
Lead time
From 6 business days
Dimensional accuracy
± 0.3% with a lower limit of ± 0.3 mm (± 0.012”)
Layer thickness
100 μm

The 4 parts look great and work very well. This order was to solve a problem on some equipment, so only the 4 parts were needed.
We were very pleased with your quality, cost and delivery, and will certainly order from you in the future. I have also recommended you to friends who own other companies.

The service at RapidDirect is phenomenal and Cherry has assisted us with great patience and understanding.
Great service as well as the product itself, exactly what we asked for and works amazingly. Especially considering the small details we were requesting. Good looking produckt.
Lars Gerchow
I couldn’t be happier with this order. The quality is as quoted and the lead time was very not only very fast and it was done on schedule.
The service was absolute world-class. Thanks a lot to Linda Dong from the sales team for the outstanding assistance. Also, the contact with the engineer Laser was top-notch.

Hi June, Yes we picked up the product and it looks great!
Thank you for your quick support in getting this done. We will be in contact shortly for future orders 🙂
Available Materials For 3D Printing
PLA
It has high stiffness, good detailing, and affordable pricing. It is a biodegradable thermoplastic with good physical properties, tensile strength and ductility. It gives 0.2mm accuracy and a small stripe effect.
ABS
It is a commodity plastic with good mechanical and thermal properties. It is a common thermoplastic with excellent impact strength and less defined details.
Nylon
It has good impact resistance, strength, and toughness. It is very hard and has good dimensional stability with maximum heat resistance temperature of 140-160 °C. It is a thermoplastic with excellent mechanical properties, high chemical and abrasion resistance along with fine powder finish.
Finishing Options
Painting
Polishing
Powder Coating
Bead Blasting
