Where SLS PA12
Performs Best
From surf foil to motorsport, our parts perform in the most demanding environments on the planet.
Product Design
Product designers use SHAPES*lab to compress the development cycle from early concept models to functional prototypes and pre-production assemblies. SLA Resin supports detailed visual models, while SLS PA12 and PA12-CF enable durable, testable parts for fit, function, and validation. Our multi-process workflow helps teams iterate faster, reduce tooling risk, and move confidently toward production-ready designs.
Robotics
Robotics teams use SHAPES*lab to manufacture end-of-arm tooling, gripper fingers, sensor mounts, lightweight housings, robot brackets, and functional prototypes. SLS PA12 and PA12-CF provide dimensional accuracy, strength, and repeatability for robotic systems that need fast iteration and reliable mechanical performance. Our process helps engineers move from validation to deployable parts without tooling delays.
Architecture
Architectural studios use SHAPES*lab to produce scale models, concept maquettes, complex façade studies, lattice structures, and sculptural installations. SLA Resin delivers high surface quality for presentation models, while SLS PA12 and FDM materials enable durable parts and complex geometries for exhibitions, prototypes, and buildable design studies. Our process helps architects communicate form, test spatial ideas, and realize geometry that is difficult to fabricate conventionally.

Brief & Design
Share your CAD file or sketch. We review geometry, wall thickness, and tolerances — and send back DFM feedback within 24 hours.
Material Selection
We recommend the right material for your application — whether that's isotropic SLS nylon, saltwater-resistant PETG Marine, flexible TPU, or marine-grade PETG.
Print & Quality Check
Parts are printed with precision tolerances and inspected against spec. Every critical dimension is verified before dispatch.
Deliver & Iterate
Fast turnaround — typically 48–72h. We iterate with you until the part performs exactly as required.
