Let's celebrate Sculpteo's 10 years in 3D Printing!

During 10 years, Sculpteo helped businesses from all sectors become leaders in their industry by going through brand new challenges. Since the beginning of this adventure, our goal is to offer our customers the opportunity to be part of the future, at the forefront of innovation. Sculpteo’s online 3D printing service evolved year after year according to your needs, allowing you to make the most of all the benefits of this cutting-edge technology. Here are 10 highlights from our 10 years in the 3D printing history. 

Sculpteo Production

1. Online 3D printing service

Sculpteo is one of the first 3D printing services allowing customers to choose among a wide range of technologies and materials to get an instant quote and print their object in a few clicks. For 10 years now, Sculpteo has been your manufacturing partner, helping you to lower your manufacturing costs and accelerating your product development and production.

5. The State of 3D Printing

Each year, Sculpteo launches its annual survey to collect data about the additive manufacturing world. From beginners to experts, professionals from every sector answered this survey, making it the biggest study you will find about the additive manufacturing industry. Discover the insights of 3D printing professionals around the world with the 5th edition of our survey:

6. Laser Cutting

In 2016, Sculpteo launched its Laser cutting online service to give you access to another digital manufacturing technique from one platform. You can enjoy a large selection of materials, colors, and thicknesses to suit your project. Laser cutting is another real alternative to traditional manufacturing processes for rapid production!

7. Sculpteo Studio

In 2017 we launched Sculpteo Studio to help businesses identify 3D printing opportunities and implement a 3D printing process. With their consulting, design and training services, our industrial designers put their expertise at your disposal to guide you in the conception of your project. One of their first projects was the Sculpteo Bike with 70% of the parts digitally manufactured. We’ve also ridden this bike from Las Vegas to San Francisco to test its resistance and viability.

8. Get the finished look

We are dedicated to 3D printing and putting in the R&D to make this technology even more widely used. Our proprietary Smoothing Beautifier solution gives you the finished look of injection molded parts for Nylon PA12. We also offer many industry standard solutions such as DyeMansion, Color Touch and Color Resist, as well as traditional dyeing, painting, and polishing. Discover the options for your project:

9. Mass production with AM

3D printing is an amazing way to create your prototypes but with process development has now become a real manufacturing technology. Sculpteo has implemented faster technologies, such as HP Jet Fusion, to allow Additive Manufacturing to become an efficient way to mass-produce your parts, from 1 to 100,000 units.

10. A world of 3D printing resources

From its earliest days, Sculpteo has been committed to making 3D printing education more accessible by providing free resources online. With our blog and weekly newsletter we keep you updated on all 3D printing innovations; and with our ebooks and tutorials, give you the guidelines and know-how to ensure the best possible outcome for your 3D printed object.
