What is 3D printing?

3D printing is an additive manufacturing process in which an object is built up layer by layer from a digital model. Unlike traditional processes (milling, casting), the product is created by adding material — hence “additive”.

How does it work?

Simply put: a digital 3D model is divided into ultra-thin layers. The printer then builds the object up layer by layer — similar to a very precise hot-glue gun drawing a computer-controlled pattern. At PRINEN we use the FDM process (Fused Deposition Modeling) with proven filaments.

Why 3D printing for your products?

  • No tooling costs: every product can be different — without expensive moulds or casting forms
  • On-demand production: we only produce after your order — no mass production, no warehousing
  • Maximum individualisation: name, text, colour — every product is a one-off
  • Small production runs made economical: even small quantities are possible without surcharge
  • Proven materials: PLA and PETG for everyday use
