What We Build

Two disciplines, one workflow

Design and fabrication under one roof means your model is optimized for the exact process that will produce it — no handoff gaps, no surprises at the print bed.

SVC 01

3D Design & CAD Modeling

Parametric, manufacturable CAD built from your concept, sketch, sample, or a napkin idea. Clean models that are ready to print, machine, or hand off.

  • Product & mechanical part design
  • Reverse engineering from physical samples
  • Design-for-additive optimization
  • STEP / STL / native CAD deliverables
  • Assemblies, tolerancing & fit checks
SVC 02

Engineering-Grade Prototypes

Functional parts printed in real engineering materials — not display props. Built to survive testing, fixtures, and end-use loads.

  • FDM, resin (SLA) & carbon-fiber composites
  • Functional & load-bearing prototypes
  • Jigs, fixtures & production aids
  • Short-run & bridge production
  • Dimensional inspection before delivery

Iterative Prototyping

Print, test, refine — fast design loops that de-risk before tooling.

DFM Review

We flag thin walls, weak unions & bad overhangs before they cost you.

Fast Turnaround

Quotes in a day, most prototypes in hand within the week.

Inspected to Spec

Critical dimensions measured and reported with every order.

The Stratum Approach

Precision, built up layer by layer

A stratum is a single, deliberate layer — and that's exactly how good parts are made. We treat every project as a stack of accountable steps, from the first reference plane to the final measured surface.

01

Engineering rigor

Tolerances, materials, and load paths considered up front — not improvised at the printer.

02

Iteration speed

Tight design-print-test loops mean you find problems on a $20 print, not a $20k tool.

03

Honest scope

If additive isn't the right process for your part, we'll say so and point you the right way.
