Fibre-Reinforced Composite 3D Printing
Fibre-Reinforced Composite 3D Printing – Strong Functional Parts in Cairns & Atherton Tablelands
Intro: What’s New at HueMatrix 3D
HueMatrix 3D is levelling up.
Alongside our colourful multi-material FDM prints, we’re introducing fibre-reinforced composite 3D printing – using a new machine from the team behind Anisoprint (pioneers of continuous fibre 3D printing). https://store.fibreseek3d.com/
This technology lays continuous fibre inside the part, creating components that are:
Much stronger and stiffer than standard plastic prints
Designed for real-world loads, not just display
Ideal for drone frames, automotive parts, and functional prototypes
If you’ve ever thought “plastic isn’t strong enough for this job”, this service is for you.
What Is Fibre-Reinforced Composite 3D Printing?
Instead of printing only plastic, composite 3D printing combines:
A base polymer (engineering-grade plastic), and
Continuous fibre reinforcement inside the part
The result is a lightweight component with strength and stiffness closer to metal than to regular 3D printed plastic.
This makes it perfect for:
Structural brackets and mounts
Drone frames and arms
Automotive clips, covers, and custom hardware
Functional prototypes that need to be bolted down and tested
Who This Service Is For
This new capability is designed for:
Drone pilots & builders
Custom frames, replacement arms, and impact-resistant parts.
Automotive & 4x4 enthusiasts and workshops
Brackets, clips, mounts, and small parts that are hard to source or discontinued.
Engineers, startups, and makers
Functional prototypes and low-volume production parts that need real strength.
Based in Cairns and the Atherton Tablelands, HueMatrix 3D focuses on local support first, with shipping available beyond the region.
If you’re not sure whether your idea is a good fit, you can always send through a photo or sketch and I’ll let you know what’s possible.
Example Applications
Here are some of the ways you’ll be able to use fibre-reinforced composite printing with HueMatrix 3D:
Drone Frames & Arms
Custom frame designs tailored to your electronics and flying style
Stronger, stiffer arms for better flight performance
Local replacement parts when you crash – no long waits for shipping
Automotive & 4x4 Parts
Custom brackets for lights, sensors, and accessories
Replacement clips and mounts for parts that are no longer available
Small under-bonnet components in engineering polymers with fibre reinforcement
Functional Prototypes
Test-ready parts you can bolt to machines and actually use
Enclosures, fixtures, and mechanisms for product development
Short runs of parts before committing to machining or tooling
How the Process Works
Whether you’re a hobbyist or an engineer, the process is simple:
Tell me what you need
Send a description, photo, or existing part. If you already have a 3D file, even better.
We choose the right material & reinforcement
Based on how the part will be used (loads, environment, temperature), I’ll recommend a material and fibre strategy.
You receive a quote
You’ll get clear pricing before anything is printed. No surprises.
Printing & quality check
Your part is printed on the new composite machine, inspected, and prepared for delivery or pickup.
Pickup or shipping
Local pickup and delivery across Cairns and the Atherton Tablelands
Shipping available Australia-wide
Pricing
Pricing for composite parts depends on:
Part size and complexity
Amount of fibre reinforcement required
Whether design work or scanning is needed
Every job is quoted up-front so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Early Access & Case Studies
HueMatrix 3D is an early adopter of this new composite 3D printing platform.
If you’d like to be one of the first in Cairns and the Atherton Tablelands to test fibre-reinforced parts in your drone, vehicle, or project, I’m looking for a small number of early customers for:
Drone frames and arms
Automotive brackets and mounts
Functional prototypes for local businesses
In exchange for feedback, photos, and real-world testing, early projects may receive discounted pricing.
Ready to Talk About Your Part?
If you have a part in mind – even if it’s just a broken piece in your hand – I’d love to see what we can do with composite printing.
