Bring your ideas to life with our cutting-edge 3D printing services at the Natural Sciences Museum. Whether you need high-quality replicas, prototypes, or intricate models for research, our advanced 3D printing technology provides the precision and detail you need. With the ability to create objects with an accuracy of up to 0.025mm and a maximum build volume of 77 x 52 x 74 cm, we are equipped to handle a wide range of printing needs, ensuring your project is brought to life with the highest quality standards.
Our 3D Printing Capabilities
Our resin-based 3D printers offer unparalleled accuracy, making them ideal for printing models that require exceptional fine detail. Whether you're working on a small fossil replica, a large-scale artifact, or anything in between, our 3D printing service can meet your needs with remarkable precision.
- Finest Accuracy of 0.025mm
Our printers deliver high-resolution prints, capturing the smallest details with an accuracy of 0.025mm. This level of precision ensures that every feature of your model is replicated faithfully, whether you're working with delicate fossils, small components, or detailed anatomical models.
- Large Build Volume
With a maximum build volume of 77 x 52 x 74 cm, we can print objects of considerable size without compromising on detail. For larger objects, we offer the option to print parts separately and seamlessly adhere them together, ensuring a perfect finish for your project.
- High-Quality Resin Printing
All of our 3D prints are produced using resin, providing the finest level of detail and smooth surface finishes. Resin printing is particularly effective for intricate designs and fine features, making it perfect for everything from scientific models to artistic replicas.
Applications of 3D Printing
- Replicas for Museums and Exhibitions: Our 3D printing services are ideal for creating accurate, durable replicas of fossils, artifacts, and other objects. Perfect for educational purposes or exhibitions, these replicas are indistinguishable from the original items in terms of size, shape, and detail.
- Prototyping and Design: For researchers and designers, our 3D printing service offers an efficient way to create prototypes for testing and development. Whether you're working on a new product, scientific model, or educational tool, our high-quality prints provide a reliable and cost-effective solution.
- Restoration and Conservation: Use 3D printing to restore or replicate damaged artifacts, fossils, or specimens, helping preserve valuable objects while maintaining their historical integrity. Our printing process allows for the reproduction of fine details that are crucial for conservation efforts.
- Custom Models for Research: Researchers can use our 3D printing service to create custom models for analysis, whether it's a complex anatomical structure, geological feature, or archaeological find. Resin printing’s precision makes it ideal for models that require scientific accuracy.

How It Works
- Consultation and Design
Begin by discussing your project with our team. We’ll help you design your model or refine your existing design to ensure it's optimized for 3D printing.
- Printing Process
Once your design is finalized, we begin the printing process using our high-precision resin printers. Our team carefully monitors the printing process to ensure high-quality results.
- Post-Processing and Assembly
After the print is complete, we can perform post-processing tasks such as cleaning, curing, and, if necessary, assembling the parts. For larger prints, we ensure that parts are seamlessly adhered together to create a flawless final product.
- Delivery
Once your model is complete, we’ll deliver it to you in the format and condition you requested. We offer shipping options or can arrange for you to collect the finished print from the museum.
