Case Study: Thingergy achieves faster, high-quality large-format 3D production for entertainment props with 3D Platform

3D Printing specialty items for the entertainment industry

Thingergy is a fabrication studio serving film, television, theme parks, game studios, museums and collectible manufacturers, producing specialty costumes, statues, trophies, displays and props. Their challenge was handling a wide variety of large, time-sensitive projects with multiple small printers and a workflow that required breaking models into many pieces, assembling parts and extensive post-processing—adding labor and slowing delivery.

Adding 3D Platform’s large-format 3DP Workbench (1.0 m × 1.0 m × 0.5 m) let Thingergy print bigger models whole, cutting digital breakdown, assembly and body-shopping time. Using PLA, ABS and TPU plus coatings, molding and casting as needed, they began printing immediately; their first project on the machine (a half-mask mold) was featured on Tested.com. The result: faster, more reliable turnarounds and high-quality usable parts across a broad range of entertainment projects.
