SUBMICRON 3D PRINTING

First 3D modeling service in a unit of micrometer in Japan
The world’s smallest modeling service
We provide a service specialized in the prototyping of microlenses, diffractive optical elements, microneedles, and MEMS.

QUALITY
Possible to handle from one prototype without molds and cutting.
FREEDOM
Possible to model from JPY 50,000 per each time.
SHORT TERM
Possible to deliver the product in three weeks. Also, we can handle it without 3D data. (*Additional costs may be incurred in this case.)
ACHIEVEMENTS
Possible to check the shape with an optical microscope and electron microscope. (*Additional costs may be incurred for dimensional measurement.)
ACHIEVEMENTS
Possible to make it have electrical conductivity by a dry plating method (gold, platinum).

Collaboration Between University and Company

Great Partnership
Great Partnership
We have been promoting collaborative research on the “Nanoscribe system” with the Kyoto University of Advanced Science. Currently, the submicron structures formed by this system are made of resin, but the research of metallic submicron products by using casting technology has been carried out for the future.
