Finishes and coatings for 3D printed parts

Depending on your application’s requirements, we offer a wide range of different finishes and coatings for plastic and metal prototype and production parts.

 

Most 3D printed parts require a level of finishing. We have developed our own unique levels of finishing based on your additive part requirements. See available 3D part custom finishes.

 

Most parts, whether produced in additive manufacturing, urethane casting, injection molding and machining will require a special process or coated finish for prototype or production. Our plastic and metal part finishes were developed based on customer and industry specifications. We adjust them to be custom or per drawing specifications on a case by case basis.

Plastic Part Finishes

  • Vacuum metalizing for metallic-like finishes, like chrome
  • Plating for metallic finishes with nickel, chrome, copper, gold, and more
  • Painting custom colors with our in-house Sherwin Williams color match system
  • Color-matched colorants, compounds, and materials
  • Anti-static nickel coatings
  • Soft-touch coatings to simulate over-mold grips
  • Vapor polishing (or vapor smoothing)

The Value-Added Services We Offer


What Our Partners Are Saying

In this competitive world with ever-changing technology, we need innovation partners that we can trust. Working with the team at The Technology House over the past five years, I have grown to rely on their ability to deliver unique results and thus instruct my development teams to call them first. They constantly drive state-of-the-art solutions that exceed the expectations of our Medical Device Customers, delivering them at a great value!

- Brian W., General Manager, Medical Device Manufacturer

Most of my 30 year career has been spent finding vendors that meet my Cost, Service, and Quality requirements. The number of suppliers that can meet those criteria for a sustainable period of time are few. TTH is one of those companies. The management team at TTH is always willing to work with us to improve efficiency and offer solutions that exceed our expectations. If you are looking for a partner, not just a supplier, the team at TTH will not disappoint.

- Tom C., NPI Materials Leader

Design Without Restriction

See how we partnered with Vitamix and Carbon to redefine what's possible. We took a legacy, six-piece, injection-molded part design and turned it into a new, one-piece, 3D-printed part.
