A little more colour

Multicolour 3D printing

Bring some colour to your model, nameplate or display. We print with up to four colours on our four-toolhead system.

Discuss your project

Some ideas look better in colour. Our four-toolhead system lets us bring up to four colours into a print, from bold lettering to small details on a display model. Have a look at the dragons below to see what we’ve been making.

Send your model, colour choices and how many you need. We’ll look at the design with you, check which colours are available and quote for the print. If the file needs changes or a sample would help, we’ll talk it through first.

A FEW COLOURFUL EXAMPLES

Your ideas.
In full colour.

Four colours, two different looks. These are our prints, made on our four-toolhead system from a model designed by IK3D.

How it works

Let’s plan the next step.

  1. Show us the colours

    Send your model and a picture showing which colours go where. Tell us how big it should be and how many you want.

  2. Check the file

    We’ll look at how the colours are set up and whether small lettering or details need changes. A sample can help check the look.

  3. Agree on the print

    We’ll confirm the colours, plastic, setup work and any sample stage in your quote. Multicolour prints can take extra preparation and printer time.

Before we make it

A few things to think about

The more we know about your part, the more helpful our advice and quote can be.

  • We’ll confirm available colours, the result we can aim for and timing for your job.
  • Tiny text and narrow colour changes may need adjustments to print clearly.
  • Different plastics don’t always work well together. We’ll check the combination with you.
  • Project images may be edited to tidy backgrounds or remove private details.
