Ultimate 3d-Changing how we price lower quantity part runs!
At Ultimate 3D we excel at large production runs. As a result, we compete with injection molding prices when you amortize the tooling into the mix.
We have come to realize that our pricing structure is inhibitive to the onesie, twosie quantities. Hence, we have restructured how we price your parts.
That said, if you have sent us parts to quote for small quantity runs and prototypes and found our price to be slightly too high, give us another shot at your projects!
With 1 week or less lead times, you have your parts in hand very fast. Put us to the test and see why we are an industry leader when it comes to customer service and competitive pricing.
Email us your files, tell us how many parts you want pricing for and which material you prefer. Include your contact info so we can give you a call to discuss how we can best serve your project needs!

Ultimate 3D now Finishing 3D Printed Parts
Finishing 3D Printed Parts
We have teamed up with a world class Painter/Finisher to help bring your prototype and production parts to life. Finishing 3D printed price.
We offer a full spectrum of colors, once the color is decided you can chose a finish from Flat to Full Gloss finishes.
Your parts are sanded smooth, then filler primer is applied. At this point the parts are wet sanded. Then the color of choice is sprayed on. Once the color is on, a clear coat is applied in the desired finish (Flat to Full Gloss).
If you have a proof-of-concept project that you need in a hurry, we can print the parts in a week. They painted in a matter of days and shipped to you overnight!
The project below was printed in our SLS machines using Nylon 12 material. The parts also received 2mm heat staked threaded inserts for assembly purposes.

WHAT WE DO
It is called “rapid prototyping” for a good reason. Once your CAD file ready, we will usually print your parts within three to four days – faster if necessary.
(Higher volume orders may require extra time).
We specialize in high quantity production parts and are very competitive with injection molding on lower volumes. It is possible to make thousands of one part faster and lower priced than injection molding when you amortize the cost of tooling into the part cost in many cases.
We can print parts that cannot be injection molded, due to under-cuts, hollows, holes on an angle and complex geometries.

Do you create CAD models?
While we have extensive experience and understand CAD, it is not the focus of our business. However, if you have the need for design work, several of our customers are also designers that we recommend for such services. If you have a model you need someone to look over to make sure it’s fit for printing, we can definitely do that and make suggestions when needed.
Can you print in color?
We don’t print with colored materials, but we can dye the finished products a variety of colors. We can also paint parts and apply hydrographic patterns.
What materials do you use?
Our standard material is Nylon 12, with composite variations.
Nylon 12 (durable white plastic)
Glass-filled nylon
Carbon fiber-filled nylon
Fire retardant nylon
Alumide (Aluminum filled Nylon)

Hydrographic Print Finishes
The Team at Ultimate 3 D are now offering Hydrographic Print Finishes!
If you have a project that requires a custom finish we now offer hydrographic prints from TWN Industries.
We have taken on the task to learn and implement this discipline into our mix of finishes which include:
Dyeing parts – Black, Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, Purple and fucsia.
Painting parts – most any color available at a quality paint store.
Among the many Hydrographic prints available, Carbon Fiber is the most requested, first we dye the part black, then take the part thru the “dipping” process to adhere the Carbon pattern to the part. Once dry the part is coated with either a Matte Clear or a Gloss Clear, your choice. Our opinion is that the matte clear gives the most Carbon Fiber like look.
Below are a few of the patterns available from TWN Industries.
For a more exhaustive list please visit http://www.watertransferprinting.com/film-gallery .

A Couple Of Quadcopter Parts Before And After:
A Prosthetic Finger with 527-Cork pattern applied.
Pricing will depend and the size of the part and the complexity of the shape. The minimum per part will be $50 and going up from there after evaluating the project.
Visit the TWN gallery: http://www.watertransferprinting.com/film-gallery , tell us which pattern you desire when you submit your model for a 3D Print quotation, we will quote your part with and without the pattern,
There are few companies that offer this service and we are proud to be counted amongst the few and to stand out not just for our excellent 3D printing capabilities, but also for our unique finishing abilities!

Ultimate 3D is proud to sponsor Palatov Motorsports as they take on Heavy Hitters for another win in this year’s Pike’s Peak International Hill Climb
The Ultimate 3D team has a history and love for racing, so we’re excited to sponsor Palotov Motorsport as they once again take on the challenge Pike’s Peak International Hill Climb on June 28, 2015.
Also known as “The Race to the Clouds,” The Pike’s Peak International Hill Climb is an annual race to the summit of Colorado’s renowned Pike’s Peak. Since 1916, cars and motorcycles have gathered to race 12.4 miles to ascend nearly 15,000 feet along a route that includes more than 150 turns. This race is the third oldest motorsport event in the Western Hemisphere, after the Indianapolis 500 and the Isle of Man TT.
The Pike’s Peak IHC is a unique and exciting race, known for its highly skilled drivers and innovative engineering used to push the limits in this steep, uphill race. To support Palotov, Ultimate 3D created custom wing ribs for the uniquely designed Palatov D2RS. The wing ribs were made with carbon fiber filled nylon and bonded into a carbon fiber wing assembly.
Here is an excerpt from Palatov Motorsports referring to the use of Ultimate 3D’s parts.
“I designed the parts in SolidWorks and made sure everything fits in the virtual world. The angles are very odd and there is no good way for me to machine or otherwise fabricate the needed shapes. Perfect job for 3D printing though, where there is no need to be constrained in shape by manufacturability. I've been talking to Robin at Ultimate3D about doing something for our cars and this was the right opportunity. He was eager to demonstrate what they can do. So I sent the files yesterday and this morning we have the parts - printed in carbon-reinforced nylon."
"These are basically wing ribs and endcaps combined. Their purpose is to locate the wing skins in space, attach them structurally to the steel tubular spars, and define the overall shape of the wings. In case that wasn't enough, the parts also serve as mounting surfaces for the endplates, with holes for helicoils designed in from the start.” -Dennis Palatov
The D2RS, designed specifically for the hill climb competition and driven by Jonathan Frost, is currently entered in the Pikes Peak Open Division and will be competing against heavy hitters like Honda Performance Development's ARX-04b LMP2 coupe for the overall win. Palotov Racing won the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb Unlimited Class in 2012, and on June 28th, we’re stoked to see this local car builder go for another win against larger factory teams.
Ultimate 3D is looking forward to continuing to build relationships with other companies in the racing sector and beyond. In addition to sponsoring Palatov racing, Ultimate 3D has made parts for Andretti Auto Sports, which races in the IndyCar series and includes the Indianapolis 500. One day we hope to make parts that are used in Isle of Man TT races, the UK’s unparalleled motorcycle race along a 37-mile open road mountain course and some of the best riders in the world.
Please stay tuned as next week we will be posting the results of Palatov’s efforts from this weekend.
