3D printing

3D printing on the Gold Coast.

FDM, resin and full-colour printing for functional prototypes, replacement parts, display models and props, across seven printers from large-format multi-material to fine-detail resin. Full-colour prints come off the printer in over 10 million colours with no painting, something very few print services offer. Local pickup from the Gold Coast to Brisbane, or shipped Australia-wide.

Colour options
Single colourMulti-colourFull colour

Multi-colour uses up to 9 solid filament colours in one print, great for logos, signage and models. Full colour blends over 10 million colours, like a photo, for figurines and lifelike models. From early 2027 it can also mix full colour with clear sections in one print.

03Full-colour 3D printing

Full colour, straight off the printer.

Most print services give you one colour, or a few filament colours at most. Full-colour printing blends over 10 million colours through the print itself, so figures, models and prototypes come out looking finished, with no painting. Very few print services in Australia offer it.

  • Available now on the HeyGears G1X prototype, using the enclosed bed for prints up to 330 × 130 × 150 mm
  • Lifelike figures, miniatures, product models, keepsakes and display pieces
  • Early 2027: the production version adds full colour plus transparent in one print, ideal for anatomical models and see-through prototypes, and the larger open bed for prints up to 330 × 420 × 130 mm
04The machines

What it’s printed on.
