Design for AM
Additive Manufacturing creates design possibilities that are infeasible for traditional manufacturing processes. We can help your team with part optimisation to take advantage of these possibilities.
Optimise for AM Production
There are a number of 3D printing technologies. We’ll help you optimise your parts to take advantage of these technologies that will allow you to use AM for part production, not just prototyping.
Finishing
We offer a number of finishing options for your 3D printed parts. These include CNC post-processing, support removal, polishing and dyeing facilities.


We use the optimal manufacturing technologies to produce your parts.
Whether we employ a hybrid approach or manufacture your parts using additive manufacturing, you get the benefits of the range of technologies we employ to manufacture your parts.
Akhani 3D offers turnkey part production facilities to manufacture your specialised, low volume parts. The technologies we employ include CNC, 3D scanning and 3D-printing services that includes part optimisation, 3D printing, and finishing.
