How we run it

Overnight 3D printing

Not all 3D printing supports overnight turnaround. These processes can reliably deliver on 24–48 hour schedules when our capacity is available.

01 · Available processes

Overnight-capable processes.

SLA resin

Fastest option. Standard resins (clear, grey, black, white) in stock. Print overnight, clean and cure morning, ship afternoon. Functional prototype resin available but slightly longer lead time

SLS nylon

Print cycle is 12–18 hours, plus cooling. Economic batch processing means dedicated rush slot needed. PA12 (most common), PA12-GF (glass-filled) available

MJF nylon

HP Multi Jet Fusion. Best surface finish of any nylon 3D print. Print + cool cycle 24–30 hours. 48-hour total from upload to ship

PolyJet color

Stratasys PolyJet for full-color multi-material prototypes. Cosmetic demo parts, medical training models. Limited material options

Not all 3D printing supports overnight turnaround. These processes can reliably deliver on 24–48 hour schedules when our capacity is available.

02 · When overnight matters

Common overnight scenarios.

Trade show deadline

Parts needed Monday for Tuesday show. Upload Friday evening, ship Saturday morning — arrives Monday morning via DHL

Investor demo

Funding presentation or customer demo next week. Physical prototype in hand 3 days before pitch

Broken part replacement

Production line down waiting for replacement part. Functional 3D print bridges the gap while permanent repair ships

Design review ahead

Weekly design review on Thursday. Upload Wednesday morning, have physical model in engineering's hands for discussion

Emergency iteration

Discovered design flaw during testing. Need v2 tomorrow to continue test program. Common in funded startup testing

Field trial samples

Field test requires next-week delivery. Overnight 3D print + 3-day DHL = 5-day total door-to-door

Customer demo request

Prospect wants a physical sample before purchase commitment. Ship overnight to close the deal

Patent filing

IP filing requires physical demonstration. Overnight print provides evidence of reduction-to-practice

Regulatory samples

FDA or similar regulatory submission needs physical sample by deadline. Overnight print meets the schedule

FAQ

Upload by 5 PM — questions

What does overnight really mean?

Upload STL file + order confirmed by 5 PM Wuxi (China Standard Time, UTC+8). SLA parts print overnight (12–16 hours), clean and cure morning of next business day, ship afternoon via DHL. SLS/MJF nylon: 48-hour total from order to ship due to longer print + cool cycle. For US customers ordering during their morning, parts ship end of their day — arrive 3 business days later.

Is there extra cost for overnight?

Yes — rush surcharge 50% above standard 3-day 3D printing cost. Reserved overnight slot requires dedicated capacity. Standard SLA part that costs $45 at 3-day lead would be ~$68 overnight. For large orders (10+ parts), per-part rush cost reduces slightly as batch processing efficiency helps.

What should I prepare for overnight upload?

(1) STL file — standard 3D printing format. (2) Material and color specified (e.g., "clear SLA resin" or "white PA12 nylon"). (3) Quantity. (4) Tolerance requirements if tighter than standard. (5) Shipping address and preferred carrier. (6) Your deadline so we can confirm feasibility. (7) NDA if needed — signed before review.

What accuracy can I expect from overnight parts?

SLA: ±0.1 mm typical on dimensional accuracy, Ra 3.2 µm surface finish. SLS nylon: ±0.2 mm, rougher Ra 6.3 µm surface (slightly grainy). MJF nylon: ±0.1 mm, smoother Ra 3.2 µm. For higher accuracy, specify post-processing: bead blast, polish, or machining passes after printing — adds 1 day but improves surface.

Can I combine overnight with standard orders?

Yes — common workflow. Ship overnight urgent parts immediately, standard parts follow 2–4 days later. Single PO covers both with separate shipping. Useful when one critical part is urgent but associated hardware can wait.

How reliable is overnight capacity?

We prioritize committed overnight orders but capacity is finite. Our dedicated SLA machines handle 3–6 overnight orders per night. SLS/MJF: 1–2 rush jobs per 48-hour slot. For critical deadlines, confirm capacity BEFORE PO — we can tell you whether rush is available for specific dates.
