At Tru-Design Coatings, we are recognized as a global leader in the post-processing and finishing of large-format additive manufacturing (LFAM) components. Our expertise spans every stage of the manufacturing process—from design engineering and additive manufacturing support to advanced surface finishing, tooling, molds, patterns, and end-use products.
We help manufacturers produce high-quality 3D printed tooling, composite molds, production tools, prototypes, and industrial components with exceptional surface finish, dimensional accuracy, and durability. Whether your application is in aerospace, automotive, marine, defense, energy, or industrial manufacturing, our advanced coating and finishing technologies deliver production-ready results that reduce labor, improve performance, and accelerate time to market.
Our patented coating products are available for purchase from Composites One.
We are a company that provides smooth durable surfaces for additive manufactured products through the use of our proprietary coatings. Our award-winning patented TD Seal coating and high build primer TD Sand were specifically designed for vacuum integrity and have very high adhesion to thermoplastic 3D printer materials. Our coatings improve bead to bead strength by up to five-fold.
Machining a 3D printed part usually takes three to five times as long as the actual printing. Our coatings can reduce post processing time significantly. Using conventional automotive spray equipment coatings can be used to fill in any surface defects or roughness, resulting in a smoother finish. Our coatings are designed with high adhesion specifically for this purpose and can improve the surface roughness of a part by a factor of 10 or more with only some light sanding.
