  • Industrial 3D Printing Service & Rapid Prototyping 

    The Trustbridge network covers HP Multi Jet Fusion (MJF), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), and Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) for functional prototypes and end-use production.

Precision 3D Printing Services for Prototypes and Production Parts

The Trustbridge network covers the full range of additive manufacturing — from FDM for cost-effective concepts to SLA, SLS, MJF, and metal 3D printing for industrial-grade prototypes and end-use parts. Every additive partner in the network is vetted, and projects are backed by engineering review.

3D printing tolerances

What Tolerances Can You Expect?

3D printing tolerances vary by technology and material, but our network consistently delivers industry-standard precision:

  • FDM/FFF: ±0.010 in or ±0.2 mm

  • SLA/SLS/MJF: ±0.005–0.008 in (0.13–0.2 mm)

  • DMLS/SLM (Metal): ±0.003–0.005 in (0.075–0.13 mm)

  • Surface Finish: From 200+ Ra (FDM) to 32–63 Ra (SLA/metal printing), with optional polishing or coating

We help you select the right printing process based on your part’s design intent and critical dimensions

Material Selection Guide

Our vetted network supports a wide range of polymers, resins, and metals:

  • Thermoplastics (FDM/FFF): PLA, ABS, Nylon (PA11, PA12), PETG, TPU, PC

  • Powder-Based Polymers (SLS, MJF): PA12, PA12-GF, PA11, PP

  • Photopolymers (SLA/DLP): Tough, Flexible, High Temp, Castable, Biocompatible resins

  • Metals (DMLS/SLM): Stainless Steel (316L), Aluminum (AlSi10Mg), Titanium (Ti64), Inconel, Tool Steel

  • Composites: Carbon fiber-filled nylon, fiberglass-reinforced polymers

We support single-unit prototypes, small batch runs, and scaled production — no MOQ required.

Why Work With Trustbridge?

One Match Across 3D Printing Technologies
From FDM to SLS to DMLS, inbound work is routed to the shop whose process, materials, and capabilities fit it — one qualified introduction, never a scattershot bid across a pool.


Engineering Review Before the Machine
Every additive project gets an engineering pass — process, orientation, and material checked for printability and purpose-fit, whether the job suits MJF, SLA, or FDM — so what reaches the shop is ready to run.


No Hidden Makers

Trustbridge introduces the shop directly and then steps out of the way. The maker isn't buried behind a broker and the manufacturer keeps the customer — capability, material access, and finish stay visible, not reduced to a faceless quote.


Direct, Not Brokered
Trustbridge makes the introduction and stays involved only where it helps. There's no broker sitting on the relationship — the shop and the customer work directly, and the manufacturer keeps everything that comes after it.


A Network Across Regions
The network spans qualified additive shops across regions, so work can be routed to a shop that fits the job's material, finish, and location needs, with engineering support alongside.
