25% MJF Capacity Boost and JOSCAR Certification

We’ve got some exciting updates to share! At 3DPRINTUK, we’re always looking for ways to push the boundaries of additive manufacturing and make it more accessible for businesses across the UK. This time, we’ve gone big. Again!

3DPRINTUK is excited to announced a further investment of almost £1m in our production capabilities, with the addition of two new HP 5210 Pro Systems, increasing our total machine count from 8 to 10. This marks a 25% increase in MJF capacity, reinforcing our position as the largest additive manufacturing bureau in the UK – on average five times larger than our competitors.

We are now operating with a machine count that’s five times bigger than the average UK bureau,” said Nick Allen, CEO of 3DPRINTUK. “If we can’t fulfil a high-volume order using additive manufacture, then no one can. This investment is about staying ahead of demand and continuing to deliver the speed, quality, and reliability our customers expect.

This expansion allows 3DPRINTUK to take on even larger and more complex projects, while maintaining the precision and consistency that has made it a trusted partner for thousands of businesses worldwide.

JOSCAR Certification – A New Milestone in Quality and Compliance

In addition to expanding our machine capacity, 3DPRINTUK is proud to announce that we are now officially JOSCAR certified. The Joint Supply Chain Accreditation Register (JOSCAR) is an industry-recognised accreditation system used by major organisations in aerospace, defence, and security to ensure suppliers meet rigorous standards for compliance, capability, and quality assurance.

Achieving JOSCAR certification means 3DPRINTUK has undergone a thorough evaluation process covering:
 
• Business and financial standing
• Health and safety
• Environmental management
• Ethical operations
• Supply chain security

JOSCAR certification is a major step forward for us,” added Allen. “It demonstrates our commitment to operating at the highest standards across every aspect of our business, and it opens doors to more mission-critical projects in regulated industries.

What does this mean for you?

This latest investment and certification are part of 3DPRINTUK’s ongoing mission to deliver more value to its clients:
 
• Faster turnaround times for large-scale orders – unmatched in the UK
• Greater flexibility for larger contracts without compromising quality
• Increased reliability with more machines for scheduling high-volume orders
• Confidence in compliance – especially for aerospace, defence, and security sectors
• Expanded capacity makes AM viable for projects previously out of reach due to quantity requirements – while still delivering the benefits of AM for complex geometries and short lead times

We continue to champion Additive Manufacturing (AM) as a complement to traditional methods like injection moulding, CNC machining, and casting. Our mission is to push the boundaries of AM, making it a viable solution for end-use parts at scale.
