Production and delivery times at a glance

CADmill produces Monday to Friday at our milling centre in Cologne, Germany. How quickly your work is finished depends on whether you send us an STL data set or deliver a model. Once the stated production time has passed, your work is ready for collection from 4:00 p.m. or is handed over to the shipping provider. Day 1 is always the day your data or model arrives.

Production times for incoming data (STL) up to 2:00 p.m.
