Precision Manufacturing for Complex Engineering Work
Additive and subtractive manufacturing under one roof, from first prototype to production run
Impac Additive 3D delivers industrial additive manufacturing capabilities that combine industrial 3D printing and precision machining in a single facility. No vendor handoffs. No re-fixturing. No guesswork. Engineers and product teams move from complex CAD to validated parts faster, with consistent process control, in-house inspection, and one accountable partner from build to finished component.
Our Additive Manufacturing Machine Fleet
We operate seven additive technologies under one roof — each chosen for a specific engineering role. Whether you need a functional prototype by tomorrow or 10,000 end-use parts by next month, the right process starts with the right machine.
Industrial-scale capacity across seven core technologies.
One integrated workflow spanning polymers, metals, and ceramics:

Subtractive Finishing & Machining
Tight tolerances. Critical features. Finished in-house — on the same parts we print.
Most shops split printing and machining across two vendors. That adds lead time, cost, and the risk of damage in transit. We keep both processes under one quality system. Print complex DMLS geometry, then machine sealing faces and mating features to ±0.002 in. Build large FDM fixtures, then finish hole patterns to spec. Remove supports, cut threads, hit critical tolerances — without ever moving the part.
CNC Turning
Precision cylindrical features and threads for printed and machined parts.
Capability
Turning, facing, boring, and threading on metal and polymer components
Launching Soon
CNC turning capability is being added to support parts that require concentricity, roundness, and precision threads.
Ideal for shafts, bushings, threaded fittings, and other cylindrical features that benefit from lathe operations.
Enables tighter control of diameters, surface finish, and coaxial features than additive alone.
Designed to integrate into the same workflow as our additive and milling processes, reducing handoffs and setup errors.
Launching soon.
Contact us to discuss upcoming projects that may benefit from turning.
3-Axis Mini Mill
Precision finishing for printed parts. Support removal, critical features, and tight tolerance machining on metals and polymers.
Tolerance
Up to ±0.0005 in on critical features
Used to bring printed parts to final spec where additive alone falls short.
Machines sealing surfaces, bearing bores, and mating features to tight tolerances. Example: reaming bores to ±0.01 mm for press-fit components.
Removes DMLS supports cleanly without damaging adjacent geometry.
Adds threads, tapped holes, and counterbores directly into printed parts.
Handles small batch production and custom setups across metal and engineering-grade plastics.
Critical features verified with in-house inspection. Certificates of Compliance available upon request.
Typical turnaround is same-day to next-day for finishing operations.
Design With Real Manufacturing Data
Skip guesswork. Review layer height, XY and Z accuracy, minimum feature size, and material properties for every process we offer. Build parts that meet spec the first time.
Engineering-Driven Approach
We don't just print parts — we help you build them better.
Design for
Additive Manufacturing
Our engineers analyze your CAD files and recommend design optimizations to reduce cost, improve strength, and ensure printability. We catch issues before they become failed builds.
Tolerance
Optimization
We work with your tolerance requirements to select the right process, orientation, and post-processing steps. Every technology has different capabilities — we match them to your needs.
