XYZ Printing

XYZ Printing XYZ Printing is a small 3D Printing service. We use 3D printers to turn digital creations into real-life objects! Come check us out! It's fun and easy to use.

XYZ Printing is located in Surrey BC. We use 3D printers to produce custom-made products for our many customers, whether you are a large corporation or a child just learning how to model in 3D! What is 3D printing?
3D Printing is an additive technology. Most of us are familiar with subtractive technologies, like woodworking where we slowly take away material until what's left is the desired object

. With additive manufacturing, we are adding material until what's been added is the desired object. This method is thus much more efficient and effective with material use. Where can I find models and things to print?
1. Thingiverse.com - This site has literally millions of user submitted models that you can just download and print! Everything is free to download.
2. Tinkercad.com - Feel like custom-making something? You can use this free cloud-based service to create your own creations! Give it a try! So how does a 3D printer work? A 3D printer works in conjunction with software. It first takes the model and slices it into very thin layers (we are talking 0.1mm!). Then the software takes it an translates the instructions into movement paths for the printer. The printer takes these instructions and follows the path, extruding a thin layer of plastic in 0.1mm layer increments until the model is complete. Depending on the amount of infill (internal structural material), a model can take anywhere from 15 minutes to 16 hours!

Woohoo!  Looks like we are back!  Will post pictures of the new test prints soon!

Hi looks like the printer is down with a failed printrboard and we are not sure when the replacement will arrive. Until then we will be unable to print orders until the end of September. Apologies for the inconvenience this may cause.

We will be building one of these soon to start multi coloured prints!  Stay tuned!

We are always getting requests to have scanning services. What would you want scanned and turned into a printable object?

Wow!
