## What ORKA does

ORKA offers five core services:

1. **3D Design** — CAD modelling from sketches, concepts, or descriptions. Print-ready file optimisation, design-for-manufacture review, parametric and organic forms.
2. **Real-Life Solutions** — Custom functional parts engineered from a problem brief: brackets, jigs, fixtures, mechanical adapters, and replacement parts.
3. **FDM Printing** — High-precision fused deposition modelling. Single parts to batch production. Materials: PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU, ASA.
4. **Post-Processing** — Manual sanding, priming, vapour smoothing (acetone for ABS), spray painting with custom colour matching, presentation-quality finishing.
5. **Mold Creation** — 3D-printed silicone casting molds, resin-pouring patterns, and low-volume bridge tooling for production at prototype speed.

## Materials available at ORKA Kuwait

- **PLA** (Polylactic Acid) — Most popular. Biodegradable, easy to print, smooth finish. Heat resistance up to 60 °C. Ideal for display models, architectural models, figurines, student projects.
- **ABS** (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) — Strong, impact-resistant, heat-tolerant up to 100 °C. Acetone-smoothable. Ideal for functional mechanical parts and automotive components.
- **PETG** (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol) — Durable, slightly flexible, chemical-resistant. Heat resistance up to 80 °C. Available in clear/translucent variants. Ideal for functional and structural parts.
- **TPU** (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) — Highly flexible, rubber-like, 95A shore hardness. Excellent abrasion resistance. Ideal for gaskets, phone cases, flexible joints.
- **ASA** (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) — UV-resistant, heat-tolerant up to 95 °C, weatherproof. Purpose-built for Kuwait's climate. Ideal for outdoor signage and exterior fixtures.
