“3DT has been pivotal to Melba Swintex by providing various services which have not only improved production, but also increased production lead times. As well as implementing new methods of manufacturing, 3DT has also provided an exceptional prototyping service to Melba Swintex which has allowed their customers to get a true scale feel of any new product going forward.”

"Thermex have been working with Paul and the team at 3DTT for nearly 10 years now. The way 3DTT design pattern equipment fits hand in glove with our own design processes and their clear, concise communication quickly results in cost effective pattern equipment, manufactured and delivered in very short lead times. In addition, 3DTT work concurrently with our nominated foundry and produce patterns that can be moved straight into production as the methods needed by the foundry are built into the pattern during the manufacturing process rather than being an added lead time after delivery. This level of service, combined with the friendly, knowledgeable staff means that our businesses have built a very strong working relationship that we look to continue into the future."
