High-Quality 3D Printing Service From Prototype to Production

With XinCheng’s specialized 3D printing service, your design goes from prototyping to production ready parts in just a few days. Bring products of unrivaled quality to market more quickly.

Models for Concept Validation

3D printing is a rapid process to create prototypes and parts. With the ability to manufacture design variations rapidly, testing and validating concepts for usability, functionality, and aesthetics are possible without wasting time.

Rapid Prototyping

3D-printed prototypes make it easier to test out various colors, materials, sizes, shapes, and other factors. In other words, 3D printing allows you to test out the prototype’s aesthetic and functionality, which goes a long way in improving the final product.

Low-Volume Production Parts

3D printing is an excellent method for swiftly producing complicated, unique, and low-volume production parts without the need for expensive tooling.

SLS Prototype Vs SLA Prototype: How They Work?

How SLA 3D Printing Works?

After data processing, a proprietary software slicing program is used to import the 3D model and build support structures as needed.

The SLA machine is then instructed to print the STL file using a tank of liquid photosensitive resin. The tank is lowered with a construction platform on it. The UV laser beam focused through a lens scans a cross-section of the liquid surface.

Next, the rapid solidification of the resin creates a single material layer in the scanning region. A new resin layer is applied to the build surface when the first layer is finished, and the platform is lowered by 0.05-0.15mm.

The resin is then cured and bonded to the layer beneath as the next layer is traced. Continue in this manner until the portion is complete.

How SLS 3D Printing Works?

A platform with a small layer of powder inside the shaped chamber is coated.

A laser beam scans the powder according to the layer’s cross-section contour when heated to a temperature just below the polymer’s melting point, sintering the powder. The model’s hollow and cantilever are supported by un-sintered powder.

The platform’s thickness is decreased by one layer when a cross-section has finished being sintered, and the laying roller then applies a layer of uniformly dense powder on top of it to get it ready for the sintering of a new cross-section.

The procedure is repeated until the solid model is obtained after all layers have been sintered.

Materials for 3D Printing Parts

Leading companies and engineers rely on XC Machining for rapid iterations and durable, high-quality parts. Whether it’s for prototyping or full-scale production, our wide range of materials ensures we meet the unique requirements of any 3D Printing project with precision and speed.

Nylon

It is strong, robust, and effectively resists impact. With a maximum heat resistance temperature of 140–160 °C, it is exceptionally hard and has a high degree of dimensional stability. Nylon has excellent mechanical qualities, great chemical and abrasion resistance, and a fine powder finish.

Nylon has high strength, as well as chemical resistance. 3D printing this material involves using SLS technology.

ABS

ABS is a common plastic with good thermal and mechanical characteristics. It is a typical thermoplastic with good impact resistance and vague details. ABS is lightweight, strong, and has high resolution. It is ideal for making architectural models as well as concept models. SLA 3D printing technology is the ideal process for manufacturing ABS.

PLA

PLA is quite stiff, has nice detailing, and is reasonably priced. It is a thermoplastic that degrades naturally and has strong tensile and ductile strength. This material can undergo SLA and SLS 3D printing processes with a 0.2mm accuracy. PLA is also food safe and ideal for making concepts and functional models.

Surface finishes for 3D Printing

We offer finishing services for 3D Printing, providing a wide range of finishing options to enhance both the durability and appearance of your parts. Whether it’s for prototyping or full-scale production, our finishing solutions ensure that your parts meet the highest standards of performance and visual appeal for all needs.

Brushing is a technique that utilizes abrasive pads or brushes to add a finish to the surface of a material. It is commonly used on metal surfaces to enhance their visual appeal. This method is especially effective on stainless steel, creating either a linear or circular pattern on the surface.

Black oxide coating is a popular choice for enhancing the surface of steel and iron. This finish not only provides a visually appealing dark surface, but also offers excellent wear resistance. Additionally, the black oxide coating can enhance the lubricity and durability of the treated surface, making it an ideal option for various applications.

Passivation is a common process used to enhance the corrosion resistance of stainless steel by removing iron impurities and forming a protective oxide layer. This helps to improve the durability and performance of stainless steel in tough environments.

Paint serves as a surface coating that is effective on a wide range of materials, offering both aesthetic enhancement and protection against corrosion. It is available in numerous color options, making it suitable for application on metals, polymers, wood, and various other substrates.

Enhance the shine and smoothness of your materials by utilizing polishing techniques. By using abrasives such as buffing wheels or polishing chemicals, you can elevate the reflectivity and overall aesthetic of metals, resulting in a stunning mirror-like finish.

Alodine coating, also known as chromate conversion coating, is widely used on metals like aluminum. It serves as an excellent primer for paint or powder coatings, providing a durable and corrosion-resistant finish. By creating a thin layer of protection, it enhances the bond between subsequent coatings, ensuring long-lasting results.

Our advanced 3D printers are capable of handling even the most intricate geometries, providing the freedom to innovate without the constraints of traditional manufacturing. This capability helps in producing parts with enhanced functionality, reducing the need for multiple components and assembly.

Reduced Material Waste:

Unlike subtractive manufacturing, which involves cutting away material to create a part, 3D printing is an additive process that uses only the material needed to build the part layer by layer. This significantly reduces material waste, making printing a more sustainable option. XC Machining offers a convenient solution for material selection, helping you choose the best options to balance performance, cost, and environmental impact.

Rapid Prototyping for Faster Development:

Speed is often a critical factor in product development. 3D printing allows for rapid prototyping, enabling designers and engineers to quickly create and test prototypes to validate form, fit, and function. This accelerates the development process, reducing the time to market. Our advanced CNC machinery also complements this rapid prototyping process, allowing us to manufacture high-precision molds and tools with exceptional accuracy.
