Ceramic 3D Printing Service
Thanks to online 3D printing services, there is no more need to pass a long way to create your object design collection.
No more wasting time and money, creating dozens of articles with manufacturers (you can never predict which of the designs exactly is going to bomb and scale in future). No more years of learning pottery until you finally feel satisfied with the result.
3D printing is a clean way of working.
It gives you a way to experiment with the models, shapes. You do not even need your own printer or production facility anymore. All you need is a creative mind.
When you design a print-ready model, you must still always be aware of the reality — at least a little.
Printers and 3D printing materials have individual rules and characteristics that need to be respected to get the high-quality 3D print.
We compiled a shortlist of the main modeling tips each 3D designer must know about.

Five tips for preparing your model for Ceramic 3D Printing and scale down the price
1
Forget Surfaces
Keep in mind that the walls of your 3D model must be thick enough. If you want a model to be 3D printed in ceramics, a wall must not be less than 5 mm.
2
Hollow the Model
We advise you to hollow out large volume objects. Filling the model inside will dramatically increase the cost. Hollowing a model can manage to save 80% of the amount!
3
Follow the limits or cut into pieces
All 3D printers have a particular volume which you cannot build larger than.
The max dimensions of an item are:
Max size: 180 (l) x 230 (w) x180 (h) mm
Max thickness: 13 mm
Max radius: 95 mm
If your model is larger than the build volume – break it down into smaller individual components. Model reasonably.

Scale it down if you can
If you cut the size in half, you will reduce the printing price by eight times.
Worth to consider.
Min size: 50 (l) x 50 (w) x 10 (h) mm
Min thickness: 5 mm
Min radius: 5 mm

Keep It Stable
There is a 3D printing slang – 'thin arm syndrome'.
It would be best if you did not leave thin arms with unsupported weight at the end.
Especially after scaling a model down, be sure that the arms are strong enough to hold it.
Our printers accept STL files.
Please make sure you are exporting in millimeters.
