3D Printing Services in San Antonio
Projects, News, & Updates
Our success is due to the clients we work with. Without their creativity and belief in us we wouldn’t have the drive to continue in this day in and day out. Highlighting their projects is our favorite thing to do.
We were happy to partner with NTC Wind Energy, a company that specializes in wind turbine technology for sustainable energy production. We assisted them in the design and prototyping of bolt cap covers for Industrial wind turbines.
Over the years, we have partnered with numerous clients to develop innovative product concepts, including some that are essential for the safety of first responders. Studies have shown that around 30% of firefighter injuries and fatalities are caused by disorientation or getting lost in a building fire.
That’s where LifeCrown comes in – a device that can be easily affixed to the male coupling of a hoseline. This tool plays a crucial role in guiding firefighters during critical situations when every second counts and lives are on the line.
We were fortunate enough to collaborate with Kendy, the mastermind behind Scalp N Go – an innovative adapter that can be attached to a range of bottles, making it easy to apply scalp treatments and hair products directly to your scalp. This game-changing device works wonders with everything from dandruff shampoos and hot oils to hair dyes and more.
With a deep understanding of the importance of scalp health in achieving healthy, beautiful hair, Kendy developed Scalp N Go to help people take better care of their scalps. Now, he’s supplying businesses and customers alike with this revolutionary scalp device that is changing the game for hair care.
Sam Ximenes, a space architect specializing in the field, is at the forefront of a growing team of scientists and students. Their mission is to prepare for humanity’s next significant advancement: a return to the Moon followed by human travel to Mars.
The collaborative partners aim to elevate San Antonio’s global reputation as a leading hub for various space disciplines, particularly in constructing habitats, factories, and other infrastructure crucial for the successful colonization and commercialization of extraterrestrial territories. In support of this goal, the team has collaborated with LS4 3D Printing to prototype a large 3D printer specifically designed to aid in building habitats on the Moon. This innovative printer, developed by LS4, has demonstrated promising results, and an upgraded version is currently being developed to further enhance its capabilities.
To engage students in space exploration, the educational nonprofit WEX Foundation has established a new base at the “Foxworks” prototyping lab within the San Antonio Museum of Science and Technology (SAMSAT), located in the heart of Port San Antonio’s expansive technology campus.
We at LS4 3D Printing are proud to have an ongoing partnership with Virginia Tech’s School of Veterinary Medicine. Our collaboration involves utilizing the latest 3D printing technology to assist the school’s medical researchers in advancing their studies.
We are honored to be a part of such important work, which has the potential to improve the lives of both animals and humans. Our team is dedicated to providing the highest quality 3D printed models and tools to support the Virginia Tech researchers in their continued efforts.
Virginia Tech veterinarians developed 3D printed skull biopsy brain guides to aid in diagnosing intracranial neoplasia in dogs. Traditional brain biopsy methods can be limiting, and patient-specific 3D printed biopsy guides offer a potential alternative. The study aimed to test the feasibility and accuracy of these guides, which can be designed based on MRI and CT scans, to facilitate accurate diagnosis and treatment.

The preservation of historical artifacts is an important task that requires a delicate balance between maintaining the integrity of the artifact while also making it accessible for study and education. At The Maverick Carter House, our team utilized 3D scanning and printing technology to create digital and physical replicas of these important historical pieces. This not only helps to preserve the original artifacts, but it also allows for greater accessibility without risking damage to the originals. Our team takes great pride in being a part of the preservation of San Antonio’s rich history and we look forward to future opportunities to contribute to such endeavors.
New Alamo City contractor wins $8.5M defense contract
A company founded less than a year ago by a San Antonio native won an $8.5 million contract this week to manufacture tactical gear for the Department of Defense.
SA woman helps spark grassroots movement to donate 3D face shields to healthcare workers
Felisha Powell worked with USTA engineer Thuy Dinh, others to make free 3D face shields for San Antonio hospitals.
With a shortage of medical equipment around the country and in San Antonio, Felisha Powell wanted to find a way to help and fortunately did not have to look far to fight the coronavirus pandemic.
To The Moon, Mars and Beyond
Trio of space pioneers finds a home base to connect students’ work to real-life opportunities on our planet and beyond.
Sam Ximenes, space architect (yes, there is such a specialty) and founder of the educational nonprofit WEX Foundation, is leading a growing team of scientists and students to prepare humankind’s next big leap forward: a return to the Moon and, subsequently, human travel to Mars.
‘A learning place’: Area 21, Tech Port’s new exhibit, gives hands-on look at San Antonio technology
A new San Antonio Museum of Science and Technology exhibit at Port San Antonio will give visitors a virtual ride in electric-powered aircraft, a tour of 3D-printed moon habitats and a chance to learn what makes a self-driving vehicle go.
