Materials

Technical materials for prototypes, CNC and production

We select the most suitable material for your project based on strength, functionality, finish and production process.

Ydealogica works with metals, polymers, engineering plastics and resins to provide tailored solutions for prototyping, CNC machining, 3D printing and pilot runs.

Technical choice

The right material makes the difference

Material selection is a fundamental stage in product development. It is not enough to create a correctly shaped component: the solution must match the final use, required performance and most suitable production technology.

We support customers by evaluating application, tolerances, mechanical strength, surface finish, budget and quantities to produce.

Quick guide

Which material should you choose?

The choice depends on the project goal: aesthetics, functionality, strength, finish, quantity and production process.

If you need to validate shape

PLA, PETG, SLA resins

If you need to test an assembly

PETG, ABS, PA6+CF, engineering plastics

If mechanical strength is required

Metals, PAHT+CF, PPA+CF, PPS+CF

If a refined finish is required

SLA resins, painting, post-processing

If you need a pilot run

Moulding-grade engineering plastics

If the component is intended for machining

Aluminium, steel, titanium, Inconel or engineering plastics
