3D Printing Services
We specialize in FDM and SLA 3D printing, offering custom solutions for everything from individual orders, small and medium-batch productions and prototype creation.
WHY 3D PRINT WITH BAUEN?
Engineered 3D Printing Expertise
We treat projects as a problem to be understood - not a box to be checked. We look at the bigger picture and don’t just print what you send; we spot problems, and work to solve them before they become expensive or time consuming.
Strong SOP's
We develop and maintain standard operating procedures that remove uncertainty. Every print follows a defined path from onboarding to production and QC — refined through hundreds of successful (and the occasional not sucessful) jobs.
Experienced Team
Because we service and repair 3D printers everyday - we work closer to these machines than most print shops ever will. That knowledge lets us make smarter decisions and deliver better results.
Craftmanship
We don't care about how things look, feel, and fit because we have to - we care because we want to. That's a big difference. As a result, we don’t cut corners to save time, and we don’t accept “good enough” when something can be made better.
MATERIALS
Filament Type | Use Case |
|---|---|
PLA | Simple prototypes and display models. |
PETG | Strong and water-resistant, ideal for mechanical parts. |
PETG-CF | Carbon fiber–reinforced PETG; stiffer and more dimensionally stable—ideal for precise fixtures and low-flex functional parts. |
PETG-GF | Glass fiber–reinforced PETG; adds toughness and higher heat resistance—great for parts under load, stress, or moderate vibration. |
ABS | Heat-resistant and moderately tough; suited for DIY enclosures, printed housings, and impact-resistant visual models. |
ABS-GF | Glass-filled ABS; stronger and more rigid than standard ABS—ideal for mounts or covers in vibrating or stress-prone environments. |
PLA | Affordable and easy to print; best suited for visual models, drafts, and basic non-functional prints. |
PLA-CF | Carbon fiber–reinforced PLA that hides layer lines—ideal for high-detail visual models where surface appearance matters. |
TPU | Flexible, rubber‑like, wear‑resistant
|
ASA | UV- and weather-resistant; best for outdoor applications. |
ASA-CF | Carbon fiber–reinforced ASA; stiffer and more dimensionally stable—great for precise outdoor parts needing strength and minimal warping. |
ASA Aero | Lightweight and UV-resistant; used for drone parts, RC aircraft, and flight components where reduced weight and outdoor durability are critical. |
PA6-GF | Glass fiber–reinforced nylon for rugged parts like tool housings, machine covers, or mounts exposed to impact, vibration, or stress. |
PA6-CF | Carbon fiber–reinforced nylon for precision parts like robotic arms, sensor brackets, or UAV frames where rigidity and heat resistance are critical. |
PAHT-CF | High-temp carbon fiber nylon; ideal for strong, heat-resistant tooling and jigs. |
PC | Polycarbonate; Extremely tough and heat-resistant; used for load-bearing mechanical components. |
PC-FR | Flame-retardant polycarbonate; used in electrical enclosures and fire safety-critical parts. |

CLIENT WORK
Each part and project shown in this section was printed directly from customer-supplied CAD files (STEP, STL, 3MF, etc) —with adjustments being made only to optimize and prepare for 3D printing. These jobs showcase our ability to handle complex geometries, tight tolerances, and advanced materials across FDM and Resin systems.
Sensor Holders
Mass 3D Printing of sensor holders to be used to environmental control within a Data Center.
Replica Muskrat Skulls
Type: SLA 3D Printing
Material: ABS-like Resin
High-resolution muskrat skull replicas produced for forensic science training kits. Designed for hands-on classroom use, these models provide accurate anatomical detail for educational environments.
Replica Firehouse Siren
Type: SLA 3D Printing
Material: Durable Resin
3D reproduction of a historic firehouse siren for the Howard County Fire Department. This model preserves the unique design of a legacy emergency system as part of a heritage restoration effort.
Streetcar Door Assembly Gear
Type: FDM 3D Printing
Material: Nylon
With the original streetcar manufacturer long out of business, the Baltimore Streetcar Museum needed replacements for an obsolete door gear after having the reverse engineering done to generate a CAD file.
Replica Pill Bottles
Type: SLA 3D Printing
Material: Standard Resin
Pill bottle replicas for a broadcast commercial on opioid awareness.
Assembly Line Plate
Type: FDM 3D Printing
Material: ABS-GF
Custom-designed plate used to streamline a conveyor belt system and cut production costs. By replacing a traditionally machined part with a 3D-printed version, the client reduced downtime and saved on tooling.
