3D Printing Services with Taiga | From Prototyping to Production

Taiga offers a one-stop solution for all stages of 3D printing, from design and development to manufacturing, post-processing, and quality control. We provide flexible support for various materials, printing methods, large-scale, small-batch, and prototype production. For all your 3D printing needs, trust Taiga.

What is 3D printing process?

3D printing is a technology that creates three-dimensional objects by layering materials such as resin and metal based on digital data. Unlike traditional machining, which involves cutting away material, 3D printing builds up material only where needed, enabling the formation of complex shapes as a single piece. This process allows for the rapid creation of intricate objects that would be difficult to produce using conventional methods. As a result, 3D printing is widely used in applications such as prototype creation, small-batch production, and customization.

Advantages of 3D printing process

Ideal for Prototyping

Since there is no need for initial investments like molds, prototypes can be produced at a low cost and in a short period of time. The process is also flexible, allowing for easy design changes, and repeated prototyping and improvements can accelerate the development of better products. At Taiga, we are also flexible in accommodating design changes and secondary processing.

High Design Flexibility

3D printing enables the creation of complex shapes and internal structures that are difficult to achieve with traditional machining or injection molding. It is ideal for creating lightweight parts with hollow structures, intricate lattice designs, and customized medical implants tailored to individual body types, making it easy to handle complex designs and customization.

Time and Cost Reduction

Compared to traditional manufacturing methods, the process can simplify production steps. This leads to reduced lead times, labor costs, and inventory management expenses.

Minimized Material Waste

Since material is only layered where needed, material waste is minimized, making the process more resource-efficient.

3D Printing Manufacturing Process

  1. 1

    Design and Development

    First, we clarify the idea of what you want to create, considering factors like application, shape, size, and functionality. Using 3D CAD software, we create a 3D model of the designed idea. The design is detailed, considering shape, dimensions, and accuracy. Drawings can be created and edited on Taiga. You can use pen, highlight, typing, and chat features to edit 2D drawings simultaneously with others, allowing for easy corrections or clarifications.

  2. 2

    Print Preparation

    We prepare for printing by converting the 3D model into the appropriate data, slicing it into thin layers for the additive process, and setting parameters such as fill density.

  3. 3

    Printing

    Once the preparations are complete, the 3D printing process begins. Material is layered based on the sliced data to form the object.

  4. 4

    Post-Processing

    Post-processing tasks such as removing support material, surface treatment, and assembly are performed as needed.

  5. 5

    Inspection and Completion

    The completed object undergoes inspection to ensure that its dimensions, shape, and strength meet quality standards. After these steps, the 3D printed item is finished.

  6. 6

    One-Click Reprocessing (Re-purchase)

    Developed parts and products are stored on Taiga, making it easy to reprocess (or re-purchase) the same items when needed.

3D printing process modeling methods that can be handled by the Taiga

Large Format Additive Manufacturing (LFAM)

LFAM (Large Format Additive Manufacturing) is an additive manufacturing technology that uses large-scale thermoplastic materials. By extruding resin in pellet form and layering it, large parts can be created as a single piece, resulting in seamless, high-strength structures. Compared to traditional molding methods, LFAM reduces material waste and enables faster prototyping and production. It is widely used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, maritime, and design. Additionally, LFAM is suitable for using recycled materials, making it a sustainable choice that aligns with environmental considerations.

Directional Energy Deposition (DED)

DED (Directed Energy Deposition) is a metal 3D printing technology that melts metal wire using a high-energy source while layering it. This method allows for the creation of highly precise and dense metal parts, making it ideal for repairing or reinforcing existing metal components, as well as manufacturing new parts. DED is widely used in aerospace, defense, energy, and industrial machinery sectors. Furthermore, it supports the layering of multiple metal materials and hybrid manufacturing when combined with CNC machining, offering high design flexibility.
