Colors of a 3D Print

To improve the appearance or recognizability of a part, Oceanz offers various coloring techniques, such as dip coloring and hand coloring. This gives your 3D print a professional and durable finish.

Vapor Polish

The use of Vapor Polish makes 3D-printed parts smoother and gives them a more closed surface. This is ideal for applications where aesthetics, cleanability, or airtightness are important.

Tumbling & Polishing

During tumbling and polishing, parts are mechanically treated to remove minor imperfections. The result is a smoother and more even surface, suitable for visual applications or further finishing.

Shotpeening

Shot peening is a surface treatment in which small particles are blasted against the part under pressure. This increases material density and fatigue strength, resulting in a slightly matte finish.

Insert, Ream & Tap

For functional applications, Oceanz offers various mechanical post-processing treatments, such as inserting metal inserts, reaming holes, and tapping threads. These operations ensure that 3D-printed parts can be assembled or connected immediately and increase durability under intensive use.
