3-D Capabilities

Maxwell Engineering, in Fort Wayne, IN now has the capabilities to produce 3-D parts or prototypes for your project needs.

Here at Maxwell Engineering we have two ways to produce your 3-D printed prototype parts. We can take your 2-D drawings and convert them into a 3-D rendering to produce your 3-D prototype or part. Additionally you can send us the SLA files directly and we are able to print out your parts. If sending SLA files the turnaround time can be as short as 48 hours! Using your 3-D models you can then sand, mill, drill or even chrome plate!

At Maxwell Engineering we use ABSplus plastic to create the 3-D models, parts and prototypes. ABSplus is a mechanical strength plastic, with a tensile strength of 31MPa and heat deflection temperature of 96°C at 66PSI. This plastic is perfect for creating parts that require high impact resistance, strength and stability. Combined with our top of the line machining and knowledge, your 3-D parts will be produced to the highest standard.
