FAQ

What materials do you use?

We use multiple materials including, but not limited to: ABS, Rubber (Ninja Flex), Nylon, HIPS (High Impact Polysterene), T-glase (premium transparent material) and biodegradable PLA.

Feel free to contact us if you would like to print in a material not mentioned above.

Do you have any materials with special properties?

Yes, we have multiple, such as translucent, glow in the dark and UV reactive filaments. We can also offer different materials upon request, including LayBrick, LayWood, conductive filament and HIPS.

What type of 3D Printers do you use?

All our printers use FDM (fusion deposition modelling) technology. This means that models are built layer by layer - melting layers of molten plastic on top of each other, eventually resulting in a 3D model.

How long will it take to print my model?

The time it takes to print a model depends on its’ complexity and resolution. Therefore, time varies from build to build, and ranges from ten minutes to three days.

How big can my model be?

The model can be as big as you like. However, the maximum build volume of a single item is 23 x 22.5 x 20.5 cm, once a piece goes above this size, it will have to be built in separate pieces, and later adjoined to make them whole.

What resolutions are available?

Our machines are capable of printing anywhere from 300 microns down to 20 microns. Our quick print settings are:

Low - 300 mircrons
Medium - 200 microns

High - 100 microns

Ultra - 20 microns   

What colours can I print in?

Malta 3D Printing offers a wide range of colours, including: gloss, matt, transparent, UV reactive and glow in the dark variants. 

We also offer a spray paint service should there be a special colour scheme or detail you want to apply to your model.

How much will my model cost?

Costs are based on the time it takes to complete a model. Unlike other companies which charge by cubic centimeter, we charge based off the build time, ultimately resulting in a cheaper cost for our customers.

The final price will be agreed before the item is sent to print, which will include all printing material and labor (sanding, adjoining, spray work, chemical treatments etc.) costs.

We also offer a price match guarantee on all items!
