3D Printing Service Vietnam | Custom Parts & Prototypes - 3DMaker

3DMaker is an industrial 3D printing and model-making workshop in Ho Chi Minh City, manufacturing to customer files and drawings since 2014 — more than 15,000 orders delivered. 3DMaker works with manufacturers, agencies, architects and product teams across Vietnam, and ships nationwide including Da Nang and Nha Trang.

Part of the industrial resin SLA line at the Thu Duc workshop — five 355 nm laser machines running to ±0.1 mm.

Why companies source 3D printing from Vietnam

If you are comparing suppliers across Asia, the practical case for Vietnam is cost and communication in the same package: tooling-free parts at a fraction of European or Japanese pricing, a working day that overlaps both Europe and Asia-Pacific, and English-speaking project handling.

What matters more than the country is whether the supplier actually owns the machines. 3DMaker does. When a print fails at hour 40, we see it and restart it — there is no partner shop in between explaining what happened.

Resin SLA prototypes — ±0.1 mm, surface smooth enough to paint without filling.

Mixed production from one week at the workshop. Most orders are single parts or short runs, not volume.

Technologies and tolerances

Choosing the wrong process is the most expensive mistake in a 3D printing order — it usually shows up as a part that looks right and fails in use. Here is what 3DMaker runs, and what each one is actually for:

Parts larger than one build volume are printed in sections, bonded and finished — 3DMaker has delivered display pieces up to 200 cm this way.

What 3DMaker manufactures

Industrial and engineering models

Scale models and cutaways for showrooms, training rooms and trade stands — the pieces a sales team uses when the real equipment weighs eight tonnes. Delivered work includes a container power station for ABB, an industrial transformer, an offshore rig for PVS and a factory line model installed in a client showroom.

Container power station, cutaway on one side so visitors can see the internal layout.

Factory line model — dozens of separately printed components assembled and finished as one piece.

Offshore rig model: fine lattice structures that no other process makes at this scale economically.

The same rig from the deck side — printed in sections, bonded, primed and hand painted.

Functional parts, jigs and fixtures

Jigs, fixtures, end-of-arm tooling, housings, ducting and replacement parts for machines that are out of production. PA12-CF and continuous carbon fibre composite are the materials that make 3D printed tooling viable as a metal replacement — lighter, faster to iterate, and printed the same week rather than machined next month.

Continuous carbon fibre composite — used where a machined aluminium part is overkill in cost and lead time.

Jig and EOAT work: printed, tested on the line, revised, reprinted — a cycle that takes days, not weeks.

Product development and prototyping

Form and fit prototypes, packaging mockups, appearance models for pitching, and short pre-production runs where tooling is not justified yet. If a design is still moving, printing three revisions is usually cheaper than one mould change.

Large-format display and brand work

Mascots, brand characters, oversized product replicas and booth pieces — printed in sections, bonded, filled, sanded and painted. 3DMaker has delivered pieces up to 200 cm for restaurants, clubs, festivals and brand activations.

200 cm display piece for a seafood restaurant — printed in sections over several weeks.

180 cm brand mascot, painted to the client colour reference.

180 cm product replica for an FMCG activation stand.

Reverse engineering and 3D scanning

When there is no drawing — a discontinued part, a hand-sculpted master, an existing product you need to modify — 3DMaker scans it, rebuilds the geometry and prints from the reconstructed model.

Turntable scanning to capture an existing part as an STL, then rebuilt as clean CAD geometry.

How an order runs

Pricing

Price depends on material volume, machine hours, process and finishing — not on a flat per-gram rate. The same file can differ several times over depending on orientation and process, which is why 3DMaker quotes per file rather than publishing one number.

The detailed price breakdown is published in Vietnamese: 3D printing price guide (in Vietnamese) — the tables and figures read fine even if the text does not. For an English quote, send the file.

The workshops

Both workshops open Monday to Saturday, 8:00–17:00 (GMT+7). +84 387 798 308 is the English-speaking line (Mr. Phuc) and covers both workshops. Visitors are welcome — message first so a technician is free to walk you through your part.
