Etiäinen 3D

From idea to object, layer by layer.

Objects are scanned into accurate 3D models, new parts are designed, and finished pieces are printed ready for use. A broken part, a prototype or a small batch – describe what you need.

How it works

Order a single step or the whole service, from scan to finished part.

  1. 3D scanning

    The shape of the object is captured with a 3D scanner. Useful for parts that have no drawings, and for documenting objects.

  2. 3D modelling

    A scan is turned into a usable model, or the part is designed from scratch based on measurements, a sketch or a photo. The model is also available as a file (STL, STEP or OBJ) on request.

  3. 3D printing

    The part is printed on an FDM printer in a material suited to its use, whether it's a one-off or a small batch.

Materials

The material is chosen based on what the part will be used for. Not sure which one fits? Mention in your message where the part will be used.

MaterialPropertiesHeat resistanceTypical uses
PLA Rigid, dimensionally accurate and affordable. Not suitable for hot environments or long-term loads. approx. 55 °C Prototypes, scale models and decorative items
PETG Tougher than PLA. Resists moisture and many chemicals. approx. 70 °C Functional parts, brackets and enclosures
ASA Resists UV light and weather, so it's suitable for outdoor use. approx. 90–100 °C Outdoor parts and vehicle parts
TPU Flexible and rubber-like. Withstands impact and wear. approx. 90 °C Seals, dampers and protective cases
PA (nylon) Very tough and wear-resistant, with low friction. approx. 85 °C Gears, hinges, and sliding or wearing parts
PC Very strong and impact-resistant. Handles heat well. approx. 115–125 °C Heat- and impact-resistant parts and enclosures

Carbon-fibre reinforced versions (PLA-CF, PETG-CF, ASA-CF, PA-CF and PC-CF) and other special filaments, such as ferrite-powder-filled and fluorescent filaments, are also available.

Heat resistance is an approximate heat deflection temperature (HDT, 0.45 MPa), and values vary between manufacturers. A printed part may soften at a lower temperature.
