3D Print Gears
Precision 3D printed gears in nylon, steel, and composite materials. Custom gear geometry from spur to hypoid — for rapid prototyping, replacement parts, and small-volume production without hobbing or grinding setup cost.
Gear Printing Services
Polymer Gear Prototypes
Nylon PA12 (SLS) and POM (FDM) gear prototypes for kinematic testing and design validation. True involute tooth form at module 0.5 and above. Quieter operation than metal-on-metal — ideal for low-noise drive trains.
Metal Gear Production
SLM 316L stainless and 17-4 PH steel gears for high-torque applications where polymer cannot survive. Integral hubs, keyways, and mounting features in a single print. Post-heat treatment to AGMA mechanical requirements.
Custom Compound Gear Assemblies
Compound gear trains, planetary stages, and epicyclic assemblies printed as near-complete assemblies. Integrated bearing seats, lubricant channels, and clearance fits dimensioned for as-printed assembly without secondary machining.
Material Options by Application
Gear material selection governs noise, load, speed, and service life — our portfolio covers the full range.
- Nylon PA12 (SLS) — low-noise, self-lubricating
- POM (Acetal) — stiff, chemical resistant, low friction
- 316L stainless — corrosion resistant, food-grade
- 17-4 PH steel — hardened, high-torque applications
- PEEK — high-temperature, aggressive chemical environments
- Bronze-filled nylon — bearing-surface wear resistance
