How an order works
Upload the part files your team made. You see a price in seconds. Pick the plastic and the quantity, pay, and we print and ship. No login, no sales call.
We print the parts you design. We do not design your robot, and we do not sell ready-made game mechanisms.
The rules are your team's job
FIRST programs have rules about who builds the robot, how a part is counted and when a design was made. The rules change every season. Read the current game manual before you order.
We print files. We cannot tell you whether a part is legal for your competition. If you are unsure, ask FIRST.
Deadlines and spares
Most orders ship in 3 to 5 business days. Plan your build with that in mind, and order before you need the part.
Print a spare of any part that takes a hit. A saved file reorders in a few clicks, so a broken bracket at an event becomes a quick reorder. No minimum order means one spare is fine.
We sign a mutual NDA on request. Your file stays private. We print it, we never share or publish it, and we delete it when you ask.
Size, tolerance and heavy loads
A part can be up to 256 mm on any side. A bigger part can be split into pieces that bolt together.
FDM typically holds about plus or minus 0.5 percent, with a floor near plus or minus 0.5 mm. We do not certify a tolerance number. Design press fits and bearing pockets with a test part first.
If a part carries heavy load or takes constant wear, send it for a review. A person looks at it and tells you what we can and cannot do. A plastic part is not the right answer for every load.
What teams send us
These are the parts that print well. Find yours, and note what to tell us when you order.
Brackets and spacers
- Tell us
- Where the load goes
- What to know
- Print them thick, and add a rib where a bracket bends. Print one in PLA to check the fit, then order the rest in PETG.
Motor and sensor mounts
- Tell us
- The hole that must be exact
- What to know
- Measure your own hardware. Holes can land a hair off, so flag the one that sets alignment. See the notes on tolerance.
Covers and guards
- Tell us
- Where it bolts on
- What to know
- Thin walls crack at the corners. Keep walls at 2 mm or thicker.
Cable guides and strain relief
- Tell us
- Which cable, and where it bends
- What to know
- Soft parts suit TPU. TPU goes to a person for a quote.
Feet, bumpers and grip pads
- Tell us
- What it presses on
- What to know
- TPU holds a soft grip. It bends, so do not use it where a part must stay stiff.
Electronics mounts and boxes
- Tell us
- The boards and connectors
- What to know
- See our pages on PCB enclosures and custom enclosures.

Which plastic should you pick?
Robots get hit, shaken and driven in a hot van. We print in three plastics for team parts.
Pick this for parts that go on the robot. It is tough, and it handles more heat than PLA.
Watch for: It has some give. Use thick walls on a part that carries load.
Pick this for fit checks and light covers. It costs less and prints clean detail, so it is a good first print of a new design.
Watch for: It softens in a hot van or a closed car. Do not leave a PLA part in the sun.
Pick this for feet, bumpers, grip pads and strain relief.
Watch for: It bends. Do not use it where a part must hold its shape. TPU goes to a person for a quote.
You see your instant price the moment you upload. TPU goes to a person, who prices the job. A person reviews your request and follows up by email. Full details are on the materials page.
Can you print a model I found online?
Maybe. A file being free to download does not make it free to print. Some makers say no to commercial use.
So we check. Paste the link, and we read the license. If it allows commercial use, we print it. If your team made the file, tell us when you order. We keep a record of what we read.
What you get, and what you do not
You get the printed plastic parts. We do not put them on the robot, and we do not paint, sand or finish them. Parts ship as printed, with layer lines you can see. Shipping is shown before you pay.

About product names
FIRST, FRC and FTC are names of FIRST, a nonprofit. We use them only to say who the parts are for. We are not made by, sold by or tied to FIRST, and we are not endorsed by it.
Common questions
- Can you 3D print parts for a robotics team?
- Yes. Upload the part files your team designed. You get an instant price in seconds. TPU goes to a person for a quote. We print in the USA and ship it. There is no minimum order.
- Do you print parts for FRC and FTC teams?
- Yes. We print the files you send. Your team follows its own competition rules, and the rules change every season. We cannot say whether a part is legal, so read the current game manual before you order.
- Do you design the parts for us?
- No. We print the parts your team designs. If you have a sketch and no CAD, a person can price design work by hand.
- What plastic should I use for robot parts?
- PETG for parts on the robot, because it is tough. PLA for fit checks and light covers. TPU for feet, bumpers and grip pads. If a part takes heavy load, send it for a review.
- How fast can I get a part?
- Most orders ship in 3 to 5 business days. Order before you need the part, and keep spares of anything that takes a hit.
- How big can a part be?
- Up to 256 mm on any side. A bigger part can be split into pieces that bolt together.
- Can I reorder a part I already made?
- Yes. A saved file reorders in a few clicks at the current price.
