What is 3D Printing?

3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, creates physical parts directly from digital 3D model files by building material layer by layer. Unlike traditional subtractive manufacturing, it enables complex internal structures, lightweight designs, and rapid iteration without the need for expensive tooling or molds.

This technology is widely used for functional prototypes, visual models, tooling, jigs & fixtures, and end-use parts. It offers design freedom, reduced material waste, and significantly faster turnaround times compared to conventional methods.

At Imago,we combine advanced industrial 3D printing equipment with deep process expertise to deliver high-quality parts tailored to your specific requirements.

Our 3D Printing Technologies

We offer multiple advanced 3D printing technologies to support everything from high-detail visual prototypes to durable functional parts and high-performance metal components.

SLA

SLA 3D Printing
(Stereolithography)

SLA uses a UV laser to cure liquid photopolymer resin layer by layer, producing parts with exceptional surface finish, fine details, and high precision. It is ideal for visual prototypes, concept models, and parts requiring smooth surfaces or intricate features.

Key Advantages:

Ultra-high resolution and smooth surface finish

Excellent for fine details and complex geometries

Wide range of resins including standard, tough, flexible, heat-resistant, and castable

Typical Applications: Visual prototypes, jewelry patterns, medical and dental models, consumer products.

Tolerances: As fine as ±0.2 mm

SLS

SLS 3D Printing
(Selective Laser Sintering)

SLS uses a high-power laser to fuse powdered thermoplastic materials layer by layer. The unfused powder acts as natural support, enabling complex geometries, internal channels, and moving assemblies without additional support structures.

Key Advantages:

No support structures required

Strong, functional, and durable parts

Excellent for complex and interlocking designs

Typical Applications: Functional prototypes, end-use parts, jigs & fixtures, automotive and aerospace components.

Materials: PA12 (Nylon), glass-filled nylon, TPU, PP, PEEK

Tolerances: ±0.2 mm typical

SLM

SLM 3D Printing
(Selective Laser Melting)

SLM is a metal 3D printing process that fully melts metal powder layer by layer to create fully dense, high-strength metal parts. It excels at producing complex internal lattices, conformal cooling channels, and lightweight structures that are difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional manufacturing.

Key Advantages:

Fully dense metal parts with excellent mechanical properties

Complex geometries and internal features in a single build

Ideal for high-performance applications

Typical Applications: Aerospace components, medical implants, lightweight structural parts, tooling.

Materials: Aluminum, Stainless Steel, Titanium, Inconel, Copper alloys

Tolerances: ±0.2 mm typical

FDM

FDM 3D Printing
(Fused Deposition Modeling)

FDM extrudes thermoplastic filament layer by layer. It is a cost-effective and versatile technology ideal for large parts, functional prototypes, and low-volume production.

Key Advantages:

Wide range of affordable engineering filaments

Large build volumes

Good for durable, functional parts

Typical Applications: Functional prototypes, jigs & fixtures, enclosures, educational models.

Materials: ABS, PLA, PETG, PC, Nylon, PEEK, TPU

Note: Visible layer lines are common; post-processing can significantly improve surface appearance.

MJF

MJF 3D Printing
(Multi Jet Fusion)

MJF uses HP’s technology to deposit fusing and detailing agents on a powder bed, then fuses the entire layer with infrared heat in a single pass. It delivers fast production, isotropic strength, and excellent surface quality without support structures.

Key Advantages:

Very fast build speeds

Consistent mechanical properties in all directions

Fine details and smooth surfaces

No support structures required

Typical Applications: Functional prototypes, low-to-medium volume production parts, industrial tooling, medical components.

Materials: PA12, PA11, glass bead filled nylon, TPU

Tolerances: ±0.15 mm typical

Design Considerations & Capabilities

3D Printing Design Considerations and Capabilities

Successful 3D printed parts start with good design. While each technology has specific guidelines, general considerations include:

Minimum wall thickness and feature size (typically 0.5–1.2 mm depending on technology)

Support structure requirements (SLA, SLM, and FDM generally require supports; SLS and MJF usually do not)

Part orientation for optimal strength and surface finish

Tolerances: Typically ±0.2 mm (tighter on critical features possible)

Post-processing needs for improved aesthetics or function

Our experienced engineers review every project and provide practical recommendations to optimize printability, strength, and cost.
