Tolerancing: How can you make sure 3D printed parts fit together

Tolerancing: How can you make sure 3D printed parts fit together

by Central Scanning | Sep 13, 2019 | Tips and Advice

You buy your first 3D Printer, set it up and get it extruding. You trawl online repositories like Cults3D and Thingiverse and browse through all the things you could print. After a few months and many prints later, failed or otherwise – you’re bored. Sound familiar?...

Which is the best 3D printing filament?

by Central Scanning | Sep 9, 2019 | Hardware, Tips and Advice

When we carry out a 3D printing service, we have to consider the materials used. We don’t just use the same plastic every time, as different plastics are better depending on the environment that they’d be used in. Here’s a little introduction to the types...

We 3D Scan, We 3D Print, We 3D Care…

  • I recently contacted the nice people at Central Scanning with a fairly unique request. A small plastic component to a shower mixer had cracked and I searched for someone who could scan the part and 3D print a new one. Tom at Central Scanning was very quick to reply and in the spirit of repair-not-replace he offered to help me without recompense. I am extremely grateful to Tom for his time and effort.

  • Thank you to Central Scanning for all your help on my Chelsea Flower Show sculpture. A detailed and accurate scan was the key to the project and you delivered on all levels. I got an amazing response at the show on what was a technically challenging project. Well done! I look forward to working with you in the near future.

  • Feedback on the trailer is very positive. We will need to do a lot of realignment, but that is normal in adjusting from real world to CAD. The quality and detail of the reverse-engineered surfacing on the trailer is probably the best we have had from a scan, so well done.
