Maximize Quality and Performance

Once a print is completed, we offer several post-processing options for plastic and metal 3D-printed parts. These options include dyeing, coloring, vapor smoothing, tumbling, and blasting to improve the aesthetics and performance of the part.

Endeavor 3D’s post-processing capabilities can be used to:

  • 17 standard colors with corporate color matching
  • Smooth surface finish with vapor smoothing
  • Enhance biocompatibility (cytotoxicity)
  • Improve the mechanical properties

Bead Blasting

The parts are bead blasted with various media to smooth the surface and remove any remaining powder.

Advanced Finishing


Vapor Smoothing

Creates a glossy, polished finish by exposing a part to vaporized chemicals that smooth out the surface.

Tumble Smoothing

Creates a polished surface finish up to 90% faster than low-energy deburring tumblers.

Texturing

Leverages advanced digital texturing techniques to produce 3D printed parts with a range of textures.
