Frequently asked questions
The durability of 3D printed parts largely depends on the material used, the printing technology, and the design of the part. Some materials, like ABS, PETG, and Nylon, are known for their strength and durability, making them suitable for functional parts and prototypes. Other materials, like PLA, might be less durable and more suited for non-functional parts or decorative objects. Additionally, the chosen 3D printing technology and the design, such as wall thickness and infill density, can significantly impact the durability of the final part. With the right material and design considerations, 3D printed parts can be very durable and suitable for a wide range of applications.
Our turnaround time for a 3D printing project depends on various factors such as the complexity of the design, the size of the part, the chosen material, and our current workload. Generally, we strive to complete most projects within a few days to a week. However, for larger or more intricate projects, the turnaround time may be longer. We always aim to provide our clients with an accurate time estimate for their specific project and work diligently to meet deadlines. If you have a specific deadline in mind, please discuss this with us, and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.
Yes, we do offer a 3D modelling service! Our skilled and experienced team of designers can create 3D models for your project using advanced CAD software. Whether you have an existing design that needs to be converted into a 3D printable format or you need help turning your concept into a fully realized model, we can assist you throughout the process. This service ensures that your 3D printed parts meet your specific requirements and are optimized for the best possible outcome.
Our process for repairing 3D printers involves several steps to ensure the best possible service and outcome for our clients. These steps include:
Initial consultation: We begin by discussing the issues you are experiencing with your 3D printer and gathering relevant information about the printer's make, model, and usage.
Diagnosis: Our experienced technicians carefully inspect your 3D printer to identify the cause of the problem and determine the necessary repairs or replacements needed.
Repair plan and quote: We provide you with a detailed repair plan and a cost estimate based on our diagnosis. This plan will outline the specific repairs, parts needed, and the expected time frame for completion.
Approval and scheduling: Once you approve the repair plan and quote, we schedule a convenient time for the repair to be carried out, either onsite or at our workshop, depending on the nature of the repair.
Repair and quality check: Our technicians perform the necessary repairs, replacing any faulty components and ensuring that the printer is functioning correctly. We thoroughly test the 3D printer to make sure it is working optimally and meets our high-quality standards.
Final delivery and follow-up: We return the repaired 3D printer to you and provide any necessary guidance or training on its operation, maintenance, or new components. We also remain available for any follow-up support or questions you may have after the repair is completed.
At Lunia 3D, we take confidentiality and intellectual property very seriously, as we understand the importance of protecting your ideas and designs.
