Replacement parts

Replacement Parts

Whether you need a replacement part for a broken appliance or a custom-designed piece, EIB3D can create it using the latest 3D scanning and printing technology.

Custom designs

Custom Designs

If you have a specific idea for a shelf, light switch plate, lamp shade, plant holder, vase, photo frame, garden item, coaster, keychain, or another useful object, we can help design and print it to your specifications.

Repair services

Repair Services

Often a part is made up of a few component parts. It may be possible to repair a component rather than replacing a whole part. From car door-handle assemblies to RC car parts, 3D printing may provide a practical repair.
