About ICONFORM
Plastic 3D printing builds parts layer by layer from thermoplastic filament — most commonly PLA, PETG, ABS, or PA (nylon). ICONFORM operates as an on-demand plastic 3D printing service: upload an STL, STEP, or STP file, pick a plastic and a color, and the calculator returns an instant price and production estimate. We print on industrial FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) machines with a typical layer height of 0.10–0.30 mm and dimensional accuracy of ±0.5 mm or ±1.0% — strong enough for functional parts, prototypes, brackets, housings, fixtures, and small-batch production. Every order includes a free expert file check, per-part quality inspection, no minimum order quantity, and tracked worldwide delivery. Uploaded files stay confidential inside our production chain.
PLA and PETG are the two most popular plastics we print every day. Pick PLA for clean aesthetic prints with the lowest cost; pick PETG when the part needs to flex, hold up outdoors, or contact food.
| Criterion | PLA | PETG |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Prototypes, decorative parts, display models, indoor brackets | Functional parts, outdoor parts, bottles, flexible housings |
| Heat resistance | ~55 °C — deforms under sun or in a car | ~75 °C — better for cars and outdoor use |
| Flexibility / impact | Stiff, brittle when thin | Slight flex, better impact resistance |
| Surface finish | Smooth matte; biodegradable | Slightly glossier; minor ringing visible |
| Layer height | 0.10 – 0.30 mm | 0.10 – 0.30 mm |
| Food-safe grade | Limited (food contact requires food-safe coating) | Food-safe grade available on request |
Order any custom plastic 3D printed part in four steps. The flow is the same for one-off prototypes and recurring production runs.
Drag an STL, STEP, or STP file into the calculator. The browser previews the geometry instantly — no plug-ins or installs.
Pick PLA, PETG, ABS, or PA. Choose color, infill, layer height, and quantity. Every option updates the price live.
See the final price, production time, and shipping estimate before you check out. Pay securely; an expert verifies printability before production.
Each part is printed on industrial FDM equipment, quality-checked, packed, and dispatched with tracked international delivery.
All plastics below are available for instant quoting. Final plastic choice depends on mechanical load, temperature, surface finish, and budget — share your use case for material advice.
Prototypes, decorative parts, display models, indoor objects
FDM
Easiest to print, clean matte finish, biodegradable, the lowest-cost plastic for everyday prints. Avoid sustained sun or hot cars.
Colors
Aesthetic prints, branded objects, lightweight stiff parts (PLA-CF)
FDM
Same machine as PLA — with metallic silk sheen, real wood-grain fill, or chopped-carbon-fibre stiffness.
Colors
Functional parts, mechanical brackets, outdoor parts, light-duty enclosures
FDM
Tough, UV-tolerant, weather-resistant. Food-safe grade available. The default upgrade from PLA when the part has to work.
Colors
Impact-resistant parts, automotive jigs, electronics housings, post-processed parts
FDM
Heat-resistant, paintable, can be vapor-smoothed with acetone. Printed in a controlled chamber with ventilation.
Colors
Living hinges, gears, wear-resistant parts, bushings
FDM
Very strong, flexible, abrasion-resistant. Stored dry — nylon absorbs moisture from the air.
Colors
Gaskets, grips, vibration dampers, soft-touch covers
FDM
Rubber-like flexibility (~Shore 95A). Great for parts that flex repeatedly without cracking.
