Core capabilities

Three pillars of MoonLab's expertise

Mechanical Design

From concept sketches to CAD models and assemblies. We optimize for function, manufacturability, and cost. (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, and more.)

Let's make it real

3D Printing

Rapid prototyping and low-volume production. FDM, SLA, and SLS with engineering materials (PLA, ABS, Nylon, Resins). Fast turnaround nationwide.

3D Scanning

High-precision scanning for reverse engineering, quality control, and digital preservation. Accuracy up to 0.02 mm. We handle complex geometries.

Why MoonLab

Engineers you can trust, quality you can measure

Engineering-led approach

Every project is handled by qualified mechanical engineers. We don't just print — we optimize for strength, tolerance, and cost.

Precision metrology

Our scanning and printing workflows include in-process verification. We deliver parts that fit the first time.

Fast turnaround

Most prints ship within 3–5 days. Scanning projects delivered as STL, STEP, or point cloud data.
