3D Printing Company
Why Malcolm Nicholls?
Malcolm Nicholls Limited have been a UK-based 3D printing company with professional in-house machines since 1996. In the 20+ years since the installation of our first machine, we have managed 3D printing projects for design houses & product development divisions of small to large companies for all market sectors.
We offer a managed service for large capacity SLA (Stereolithography), fine powder SLS (Selective Laser Sintering), a multitude of material FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling) parts as well as full colour 3D prints. Our technology consultants offer fantastic advice, matched to your requirements, and you can get a free, instant 3D printing quote online.

MNL Utilise All of the Main Plastic 3D Printing Technologies
Here you will find examples of their work categorised by specific 3D printing technologies:
SLA – Stereolithography
Stereolithography (SLA 3D Printing) is the most widely used 3D Printing / rapid prototyping technology.
FDM – Fused Deposition Modelling
Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM 3D Printing) uses the same tried and tested thermoplastics found in traditional manufacturing processes.
SLS – Selective Laser Sintering
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS 3D Printing) is used for the building of functional parts. At MNL, we utilise a HiQ Sinterstation SLS 3D printing machine.
3D Colour Printing
One of the latest 3D printing processes, 3D colour printing is a huge step forward for the design and development sectors.
4 Ways to Get Your Project Started
Our 3D printed prototypes have been used to speed up flight testing, which has helped to reduce the risk of costly design errors and oversights.
Our 3D printed scale models have proved valuable in communicating ideas to clients and ensuring that innovative designs are viable and structurally sound.
From concept cars to detailed engineering, our functional, 3D printed prototypes have supported the development and testing of advanced automotive solutions.
Our 3D printed models have been building and enhancing brand names in the food and drinks markets for most of our 40+ year history.
Our unique approach to additive manufacturing has produced supreme examples of work that have supported Art, Fashion, TV and Film for 40+ years.
Our 3D printed models have been used as teaching aids, replacement parts and to support the development of medical equipment that improves patient care.
Stringent testing is essential for any equipment that has to perform in the toughest environments; We 3D print robust prototypes to suit the harsh environment.
Providing engineers with solutions to their development issues whether it be using trad model making techniques, various 3D printing service technologies or a hybrid of any of the above.
From gaining the competitive edge to increasing safety and all ability participation, 3D printed models and prototypes have supported product dev from concept to product.
Just as FMCG packaging design is integral to the whole experience of consumer goods, 3D printing prototypes and models to showcase those designs is equally important.
We have 3D printed models and prototypes with wow factor finishes and sexy curves that underpin the very essence of alluring product design that make modern consumer goods.
World renowned retailers have used us to 3D print products such as mobile POS, experiental promo models for high end brands to unique one off bespoke POS.
