Frequently Asked Questions
What is the quickest method to get a flexible part?
3D Printing is the quickest option for flexible parts.
Build speeds are quick, layering is fine and using the latest Connex machines, variable hardnesses can be produced simultaneously. For typical sized parts, builds are usually < 24 hours, so with queuing time and delivery, a 3 - 4 day turn around is possible.
