Rapid Prototyping
Quick Samples
Additive manufacturing (AM) is changing the future regarding time to market for value add / value engineering, sustaining legacy industrial machinery, manufacturing jigs and fixtures, quick turn product ideation cycles, product enhancements, field testing, manufacturing pilot build launches and permanent solutions to name a few. Additive manufacturing affords you the opportunity to rapidly iterate designs, assess design languages and assess functional designs.
​
We have a vast range of technical knowledge utilizing rapid prototypes from concept to production to legacy support. 3D scanning to rapid prototyping is a fast method to eliminate tedious reverse engineering activities.
​
We have an in-depth understanding of environmental requirements and selecting the appropriate rapid prototype material(s) to withstand various environmental conditions; high and low temperatures, humidity, chemical resistance, UV solar radiation, impact resistance, vibration, etc.
