FDM 3d Printing Service in Southampton FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling) feeds a heated stream of thermoplastic filament along a G-code path, stacking layers until the part takes shape. The method is rapid, accurate, and remarkably economical, with post-processing usually limited to snapping off—or dissolving—supports. From desktop printers in Bournemouth offices tackling fit-check prototypes to metre-scale industrial rigs outputting custom end-use parts, FDM scales effortlessly. Select from engineering plastics such as ABS, PLA, PET-G, ULTEM™ PEI, or carbon-filled nylon to produce durable, rigid components whose intricate internal channels would challenge injection moulding.

FAQs about 3d Printing
How fast can Southampton printing service ship my part ? Order FDM or SLA before 11 am and we’ll dispatch next-day—often the very same evening if the queue is light. SLS and MJF typically leave the workshop in 2–3 working days, while painted or vapour-smoothed parts add just 24 hours. Need it even faster? Ask for our “bike-courier BH-postcodes” option and your part can reach any Bournemouth address by 7 pm.
What file types do printers in Southampton accept ? A: We accept STL, STEP, IGES, OBJ and 3MF as standard. Native CAD such as SolidWorks (SLDPRT) or Fusion 360 (.f3d) can be converted in-house at no extra cost—handy if you want to preserve feature trees for future edits.
Do you offer colour printing in Southampton Post-process colouring on SLS or MJF nylon parts: industrial dyeing, spray painting or two-part polyurethane top-coats. Tell us the RAL or Pantone code and we’ll hit it within
Can I visit the facility? Absolutely—by appointment. Monday to Friday, 09:30–16:00. Bring closed-toe shoes; we’ll supply safety glasses and a quick NDA if you need one. You’ll see the FDM farm, resin suite, and finishing bay in a 20-minute walk-through, plus time for Q&A with an engineer.
How can I reduce the cost of my 3D prints ? The price we quote is mainly driven by four things—material, part volume, print process, and finishing. Tweak them thoughtfully and you can shave 20–60 % off the bill without compromising function.
