What are supports in 3D printing?

Supports are created by the slicing software or manually to help print models with overhangs. If no supports are put in place on certain overhanging structures, then the model may sag, form spaghetti like structures, or completely fail. Supports can be easily removed after the print and we will try to print each model with the minimum support required to ensure a quality print.

How much do you charge on 3D printing?

It depends! Our pricing is primarily based upon the volume of material used, size and design of the parts etc. So generally larger items cost more than smaller ones. Our starting price is from 0.3$/pcs. Please upload your 3D files and try our pricing calculators on our Quote Page to get a better idea below. https://jlc3dp.com/3d-printing-quote

How do you determine 3D Printing costs?

Cost is determined by several factors, including: the size of the part(s), the material being used, the complexity of the design, the time that it will take to print, quantity needed, and customer timeline requirements. We also offer a wide variety of post processing options for an additional cost if needed.

Can I order PCB and 3D model both together?

Yes, you can! JLC3DP currently supports combining PCB and 3D printing orders into one parcel for convenient delivery. We are committed to providing an efficient and streamlined online ordering experience. In addition, you can also easily combine and pay for PCB and Stencil product orders, making your design and manufacturing process smoother.

Can I 3D print replacement parts for broken objects?

Yes, 3D printing can be a convenient way to create replacement parts for broken objects. However, it is important to ensure that the replacement part is designed and printed correctly to ensure it functions properly.

How long does it take to 3D print an object?

The time it takes to 3D print an object depends on the size and complexity of the design, as well as the type of the printing process and material being used. Generally, small objects or small batch orders can be printed and post processed within 48h-72h, while larger objects or volume orders may take more days. The build time on the quoting page is only for your references, and the final build time/lead time will be reviewed manually.

Can different batch 3D orders be shipped out together?

Orders in different batch number (Starts with W) could not be combined for shipment together.If you need all the orders shipped together, please kindly put the all the orders in the cart and submit them for quotation altogether at the beginning, or via “add new item” function in your order history to the orders which had already been approved or in production and please make sure all the orders are in the same batch number, so we could help to ship them together for you.Note : When adding new orders to the previous orders which were already in production. Please pay directly before file review to ensue high efficiency and in-time production after the approval. If your file can't be approved to production after reviewing, payment will be returned.
