A Word from the Managing Director
James Preen
“We set up Triple Axis because we wanted as many people as possible to experience the benefits of 3D printing.
This doesn’t necessary mean that everyone needs to own a 3D printer but just have access to one. And that’s where we come in, our 3D printing service is designed to be available to anyone whether they have 3D design experience or not.
So if you want to have something unique created with 3D printing then please get in touch and we can make that happen!”
What Is 3D Printing?
3D printing is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital design file.
A 3D printed objects is achieved by using an additive process (rather than a subtractive process). The object is created by laying down sccessive layers of material until the object is created. Each layer can be seen as a thinly sliced horizontal cross-section of the eventual object.
A milling machine which cuts out or hollows out a piece of metal, plastic or wood is an example of a subtractive manufacturing process which is essentially the opposite of 3D printing.
3D printing allows complex shapes to be created with less wastage of material than traditional manufacturing methods.
