Additive or subtractive? 3D printing and CNC machining both make great parts — they’re just good at different things. Here’s how to decide.
When 3D printing wins
Complex geometry, internal…
It’s the first question almost everyone asks. The honest answer is “it depends” — but the factors are predictable, and once you know them you can order smarter.
What drives…
The process gets the attention, but material choice often makes or breaks a 3D printed part. Here’s how to match the material to the job.
Start with the requirements

When fit and finish matter most, SLA is hard to beat. Stereolithography is the 3D printing process of choice for fine detail and smooth surfaces.
How SLA works
A UV…
When a part needs to survive real mechanical use, SLS is often the answer. Selective Laser Sintering is a powerful 3D printing process built for durability.
How SLS works

FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) is the most widely used 3D printing technology — and for most everyday parts, it’s the most practical. Here’s what it is and when to use…
If you’re ordering 3D printed parts for the first time, the toughest call isn’t whether to print — it’s which process to use. FDM, SLS and SLA are the three…
