About CT3D LLC

CT3D is an advanced design, manufacturing, and fabrication company located in New Britain/Hartford, CT. As a for-profit LLC founded in 2022, CT3D is dedicated to helping entrepreneurs, Makers, and small businesses bring products from napkin sketch to finished product faster and for less initial investment than traditionally possible. CT3D does this by focusing on design for additive manufacturing (DfAM), 3D printing, 2D laser cutting, and off-the-shelf components, allowing the product to be developed quickly. After the initial development process is completed, the product lives as a digital asset on the entrepreneur's platform (TikTok, Etsy, SquareSpace, etc) until a customer purchases it. Only then is the product fabricated and the order fulfilled. 

Due to advances in the areas of additive manufacturing (3D printing), subtractive manufacturing (CNC machine technology), Computer Aided Design (CAD), Computer Aided Manufacturing/CNC Programming (CAM), and open-source animation & rendering, the only limiting factor is the imagination of the user.

CT3D is dedicated to pushing the envelope of this technology and providing access for hobbyists, entrepreneurs, and startups.

CT3D is a registered small business with the State of Connecticut DAS/CTGateway, the US System for Award Management (SAM.gov), and the US Department of Defense’s Defense Logistics Agency (CAGE code: 16HW0). CT3D is currently working to acquire the following industry certifications and quality standards. Check back regularly for updates:
