4

Test & Iterate

Fly, test, refine -- we turn around revisions in 48 hours.

Materials & Specs

Flight-Grade Materials for Every Application

Nylon

Best strength-to-weight ratio. Ideal for structural frames and load-bearing components that need to stay light.

PETG

Excellent impact resistance for crash-prone parts. Good chemical resistance and dimensional stability.

TPU

Flexible and vibration-dampening. Perfect for camera mounts, landing gear pads, and shock absorbers.

Carbon-Fiber Composites

Maximum rigidity with minimum weight. For performance builds where every gram counts.

Case Study

Custom Camera Mounts for Commercial Survey Drones

Challenge

A Charlotte commercial drone company needed custom camera mounts for their survey drones. Off-the-shelf mounts didn't fit their specialized sensor package and introduced excessive vibration into aerial imaging.

Solution

CLT 3D Printing designed custom Nylon mounts with integrated vibration dampening. We iterated through three design revisions in under a week, optimizing weight and fitment for their specific sensor configuration.

Result

The final mounts reduced vibration by 40% and shaved 15g per unit compared to the off-the-shelf solution. CLT now provides ongoing replacement parts for their fleet, with 48-hour turnaround on reorders.
