We don't just sell the machines.
We'll make it for you.
Send us a file, a photo, or just an idea, and our team designs, prints, cuts, or engraves it in-house, on the same machines we sell every day, then ships it anywhere in South Africa or across Africa.
TECH UP 3D started by putting 3D printers and laser machines into the hands of entrepreneurs across Africa. Along the way, customers kept asking the same thing: "can you just make it for me?" So now we do. Whether you're a sign shop needing overflow capacity, a small business that needs a prototype before committing to tooling, or someone who wants a custom gift cut and engraved properly, this is the team that does the work.
Six ways we can
help you build it
Every job is quoted individually since material, size, and finish all change the price. Click through for the full breakdown on each service.
3D Printing Services
Got an STL, or just an idea? We print functional parts, prototypes, replacement pieces, and display models in PLA, PETG, TPU, or resin, on the same Creality and industrial printers we sell. One-offs and small batches both welcome.

No file? No problem. Our designers turn a rough sketch, a reference photo, or a measurement and description into a clean, manufacturable CAD model, ready for 3D printing, CNC, or laser work, built to actually fit and function.

The creative side of design work: character models, decorative pieces, custom homeware, branded objects, and one-off concept pieces. Describe it or sketch it, and we'll model it, render it for your approval, then send it to production.

Precision engraving and cutting on wood, acrylic, leather, and metal. Corporate gifts, branded merchandise, awards, name tags, or that one personalised item that needed to be perfect, run through our fibre and CO2 lasers.
