You asked. We’re delivering.
Today you officially have the option to have the production of your White Strong & Flexible Nylon Plastic models rushed, on top of 33% reduced lead times for Strong & Flexible Nylon Plastic everyday.
Even with all the strides the 3D printing industry has made over the years, there are still some barriers holding people back from making the technology truly part of their lives. One of those barriers is speed of production, which is exactly what we’re improving with today’s announcement. With rush production your 3D printed products will be ready to ship in just 2 days!
Whether you are working against a deadline or just can’t wait another day for your order, our new lead times and rush offering will get you one step closer to bringing your products to life faster than ever, with the same quality and service you’ve come to expect from Shapeways. We are still your one stop shop for the highest quality prints in the widest array of materials, and we know that you don’t want to compromise that quality just so you can get your prints in a couple of days. With our new lead times and rush production, you’re still getting the highest quality 3D printed products around but you can now plan for time-sensitive projects a little more easily.
Rush is perfect for your prototypes, allowing you to iterate to a final product in days, instead of weeks or months. Our competitive production time gives you the ability to hit your deadlines while still creating a high quality product.
Interested? Check out the video below for more details:
- Rush offering is for unpolished White Strong & Flexible only with a bounding box < 150x150x200mm.
- The cost will be 50% more.
- Orders placed by 2 p.m. will be ready to ship after two business days ( i.e. orders placed before 2 p.m. on Monday will be ready to ship on Wednesday. Orders placed before 2 p.m. on Friday will be ready to ship on Tuesday).
- All rush parts will need to be placed in a separate shopping cart in order for the rush option to appear.
- You will still need to select your preferred shipping method. For fastest shipping, select “Next Day” at checkout.
As always, we want your feedback! Let us know what you think of rush, other materials you are excited to see manufactured faster and anything else that’s on your mind in the forum.
Hey Shapeways – great news! Will you extend this to other materials that allow thinner designs (like frosted ultra detail plastic) anytime soon?
We can definitely look into it! What type of products would you want to order with Rush in Frosted Ultra Detail?
Where do you specify RUSH? I don’t see any RUSH settings on materials or shipping.
You should see this option under the “Manufacturing Speed” headi ng in your shopping cart, provided that all items in the cart are in white strong&flexible and below the size limits mentioned above.
Next day delivery castable materials should be your next goal. Even better next day pick up option.
