3D PRINTING AT MACK PROTOTYPE SAVES YOU TIME AND MONEY

With 3D printing, you can make design changes quickly, easily, and cheaper than with traditional prototyping methods. Our in-house 3d printing capabilities allow us to make design changes on the fly and have parts ready for testing within a few hours.

We offer the latest 3D printing technology giving you multiple options depending on your project needs. Our team will review the part requirements and supply the best solution based on your budget, timeline, quantity, material, finish, and quality requirements.

As a part of Mack Group, Synectic has the resources and internal network necessary for rapidly scaling designs from prototype development to production. With our vertical integration model, you get collaboration between companies benefiting you by:

  • Keeping your project, including design, prototyping, and manufacturing, in one place.
  • Producing products quicker without costly overhead.
  • Reducing issues seen with traditional design transfers by 95%.

Under our direction, Mack Prototype will handle your 3d printing and low-volume plastic injection molding for assembly at Synectic’s new product introduction area. As you scale up and graduate to high-volume production, we will be with you every step of the way as your product gently transfers to one of Mack Molding’s manufacturing facilities.

CUTTING EDGE 3D PRINTING TECHNOLOGIES

Carbon DLS

Fast builds
Isotropic parts
Fully dense parts
Economy of scale
Molded-like surface finish
Carbon DLS technology uses digital light projection (DLP) with engineering-grade materials to produce injection molded-like parts with similar finish, strength, & material properties. With a smooth finish, fully dense prints, and engineering-grade materials, this 3D printing method is excellent for prototypes & end-use production parts.
Available Materials

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)

Low cost
Ease of use
Quick turnaround
Real thermoplastics
Testing with same materials
Fused deposition modeling (FDM) is the most common additive manufacturing technology available. Using thermoplastic filaments to create objects, FDM is best used for prototype parts, jigs, fixtures, and end-use production parts. Parts are typically rougher with heavier build lines but are durable, accurate, and low-cost.

HP Multi Jet Fusion (MJF)

Fully dense
No supports
Complex parts
Economy of scale
Watertight and airtight
HP Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) 3D prints parts using thermoplastic powdered materials & bonding agents to create isotropic, injection-molded-like parts with similar finish, strength, & material properties. MJF is a fast option to print batch production parts & is best used for small to medium-sized prototypes & end-use production parts.

Available Materials

Stereolithography (SLA)

Low cost
Quick turnaround
Economy of scale
Easy to finish and paint
Wide range of materials
Stereolithography (SLA) is the first and oldest additive manufacturing technology. Using thermoset resin materials, SLA creates accurate parts with a smooth finish, quickly. SLA is great for low-cost design models, fit & function models, master patterns, and show models which ease finishing & painting.
Available Materials

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)

No supports
Complex parts
Economy of scale
Print full assemblies
Thermoplastic powders
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) sinters thermoplastic powders with a UV laser to create pieces from engineered materials like nylon, glass-filled nylon, and others. Parts are typically rougher with a gritty finish but are tough and strong. SLS is best used for small to medium-sized prototype parts and end-use production parts.
