Fine-featured Metal Parts.
3D Printed On Demand.
Take the frustration out of manufacturing complex parts with our easy-to-use service
Are machine shops no-quoting your intricate part designs, and long lead times driving you crazy?
That grinds your product development to a crawl, puts too much pressure on every design iteration to be perfect, and makes your project engineering team grumpy.
Holo's PureForm™ metal 3D printing service might be a solution. We deliver complex metal parts with tiny features quickly with a high quality surface finish, and we inspect every part for dimensional accuracy before it leaves our facility — so you can have less headaches when parts arrive at your door.
Where can we help?
Our 3D printing process can tackle a wide variety of design and engineering challenges, but some of our customers' biggest successes have come in these areas:
Overall: Difficult-to-manufacture complex parts with tiny individual features smaller than 0.5 mm [0.02 in]
Size: Grain of rice to softball sized parts
Process economics: Production volumes or variability that don't justify traditional setup and tooling costs
Manufacturing process: Parts originally designed for
- Swiss-type turning or CNC machining
- Metal injection molding (MIM)
- Die casting
Advanced applications: Components that require a degree of intricacy that traditional processes can't provide
“Our parts came in quickly (twice as fast as a machine shop), fit together as-designed, and allowed us to begin our prototype testing sooner.”
- Mechanical Design Engineer, medical technology company
How does PureForm™ work?
After submitting a .STEP file to us, your parts are...
PRINTED from a metal-polymer slurry, using our high precision, digital projector-based 3D printers
SINTERED into a fully dense part, in an industry standard metal injection molding (MIM) furnace
INSPECTED by our in-house team for dimensional accuracy and quality
Build with familiar engineering alloys
We develop our materials in-house to precisely optimize how they perform in our systems and meet your requirements.
That's how we dial in dimensional accuracy, mechanical and material properties, sintering performance, and more. Our current material portfolio includes:
- Pure copper
- 17-4PH stainless steel
- 316 stainless steel
- Inconel 625
- C22 nickel superalloy
As well as:
- metals custom developed to your specs
- and more in R&D...
