FAQ

3D Printing — frequently asked questions

What 3D printing technologies does ProtoAnything offer?
ProtoAnything offers SLS (Selective Laser Sintering), MJF (Multi Jet Fusion) and SLA (Stereolithography) 3D printing, run across a network of 400 machines and 500 manufacturing professionals in the UK, Sweden and Europe. Each technology suits different geometries, finishes and materials, so the right choice depends on your part. Upload your CAD file for a free instant quote and technology recommendation.
What is Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)?
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is a 3D printing process that fuses powdered plastic layer by layer using a laser, producing strong, functional parts without support structures. It's well suited to complex geometries and low-volume functional prototypes or end-use parts. ProtoAnything runs SLS printing across the UK, Sweden and Europe — upload your CAD file for a free quote and lead time.
What is Multi Jet Fusion (MJF)?
Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) is a powder-bed 3D printing process that uses fusing and detailing agents plus heat to build strong plastic parts with consistent mechanical properties. It's a popular choice for functional prototypes and small-batch production because of its speed and repeatable strength. ProtoAnything offers MJF printing across the UK, Sweden and Europe — upload your CAD file for an instant quote.
What is Stereolithography (SLA)?
Stereolithography (SLA) is a 3D printing process that cures liquid resin layer by layer with a laser to produce parts with fine detail and smooth surface finish. It's typically chosen for visual prototypes, presentation models and parts needing tight surface quality rather than high mechanical strength. ProtoAnything provides SLA printing across the UK, Sweden and Europe with free real-time CAD quoting.
What materials are available for 3D printing?
ProtoAnything's 3D printing materials cover a range of plastics and polymers across SLS, MJF and SLA processes, plus metal options through metal 3D printing. Availability depends on your chosen technology, part geometry and application, whether functional or visual. Upload your CAD file (STEP, IGES, SLDPRT or STL) for a free quote that lists suitable materials for your part.
How much does 3D printing cost and what's the lead time?
3D printing cost and lead time depend on part geometry, material, technology and quantity, so ProtoAnything doesn't quote a flat rate — upload your CAD file for a free, real-time instant quote. Turnaround can be as fast as 1 day thanks to a network of 400 machines and 500 professionals working 7 days a week across the UK, Sweden and Europe. There's no minimum order, and projects can be covered by an NDA on request.
When should I choose 3D printing over CNC or injection moulding?
Choose 3D printing when you need complex geometries, rapid design iteration, or low-volume functional and visual prototypes that would be slow or costly to tool for. CNC machining suits precision parts from solid stock, while injection moulding is more economical at higher volumes once a design is finalised. ProtoAnything offers all three processes across the UK, Sweden and Europe — upload your CAD file and get guidance on the best fit.
