3D Modeling and CAD Design for 3D Printing — Monza

Not everyone can handle 3D modelling on their own, and not every company has a CAD technician who also knows the specifics of additive manufacturing. That is normal: they are different skills that are rarely found in the same person.

If you have an idea, an object to replicate, a technical drawing or a file that does not print correctly, we can take care of the modelling before the part goes into production. We have in-house designers and CAD technicians.

Where we can start from

From scratch — describe the idea, even just in words. We start from the brief, sketch it out together, then model it until we have a print-ready file.

From a 2D image — a photo, a freehand drawing, an image found online. We rebuild the solid volume and turn it into a printable format.

From a non-solid 3D image — renders, files for VR or animation, three-dimensional images that are not closed solids. We convert them into a printable mesh.

From a dimensioned drawing — a technical drawing with dimensions is an excellent starting point. The more accurate the measurements, the faster and more precise the modelling.

Reverse engineering with a 3D scanner — if you need to replicate an existing physical object, we scan it and obtain the digital model. Useful for out-of-production spare parts, adaptations, cloning original parts that are damaged or no longer available.

Types of modelling

Geometric / parametric — for mechanical components, jigs, housings, technical parts with precise dimensions. We use Fusion 360, SolidWorks, FreeCAD.

Organic — for free forms, sculptures, objects with complex and curved surfaces. We use ZBrush, Blender.

Advanced parametric — when the shapes depend on variables that must remain editable: sizes, multiple configurations of the same part, families of components.

3D file repair

Do you have a file that already exists but does not print well? Often the problem is in the file itself: open meshes, inverted normals, intersecting surfaces, non-manifold geometry. We fix it before sending it to production, without you having to work out where the error is.

How it works

Write to us with a description of the project and all the material you have (photos, drawings, existing files). We give you an indication of times and costs before starting, with no obligation.
