Fictiv Launches U.S.-Based 3D Printing Service Expansion

Fictiv, an operating system for custom manufacturing, offers a series of new updates to its 3D printing service to meet needs of its industrial customers' additive manufacturing programs.

Fictiv offers 14 new 3D printing materials for advanced engineering applications, including high-temperature materials such as Ultem 9085, biocompatible materials such as ABS-M30i for surgical guides and medical devices, and SOMOS materials for optical clarity. The materials are made for various use cases across automotive, industrial, and medical industries, for production quantities, functional assemblies, jigs and fixtures, and more. All materials available for on-demand purchase in the USA via Fictiv's digital manufacturing platform.

Additionally, there are new online quoting features for 3D printing via the Fictiv platform, including expanded lead time options that allow customers to select from three production times for improved flexibility and pricing, new configuration options for infill density and threaded insert specification and improved filtering for material selection by application.

Available at the end of October, customers will have access to Carbon Digital Light Synthesis (Carbon DLS) 3D printing technology via the Fictiv platform. 

“We are committed to providing our customers with industry-leading 3D printing solutions for R&D as well as high-volume production needs for new product introduction,” says Riley Hall, director of Additive Manufacturing at Fictiv. “With this expansion, our customers will not only be able to source parts with cutting-edge lead times for 3D printing, with more options than ever, they'll also have access to all of this at an incredibly cost-effective price point.”
