Vacuum Forming
Vacuum forming is a cost-effective method for creating lightweight, durable plastic prototypes by heating a plastic sheet and forming it over a mold using vacuum pressure.
Applications: Ideal for packaging, enclosures, and large-scale prototypes like automotive dashboards or medical trays.
Materials: ABS, PETG, polycarbonate, and more.
Advantages:
- Low tooling costs compared to injection molding.
- Fast production for large parts (up to 2m x 1m).
- Perfect for low-volume runs or one-off prototypes.
Rapid 3D Printing
Using advanced additive manufacturing, Rapid 3D Printing creates detailed prototypes layer by layer, allowing for complex geometries and quick iterations.
Applications: Functional prototypes, concept models, and small components for industries like aerospace and consumer goods.
Materials: PLA, ABS, TPU, nylon, and resin-based options for high-detail prints.
Advantages:
- No tooling required, reducing upfront costs.
- Supports intricate designs with undercuts and internal features.
- Turnaround as fast as 24 hours for small parts.
CNC Machining for Prototyping
Our 3-Axis and 5-Axis CNC machining services complement rapid prototyping by providing high-precision parts for functional testing.
Applications: Metal and plastic prototypes for automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications.
Materials: Aluminum, steel, titanium, and engineering plastics.
Advantages:
- Superior surface finish and dimensional accuracy.
- Ideal for testing mechanical properties before production.
- Supports low-volume production runs.
Sheet Metal Fabrication for Prototyping
Our sheet metal fabrication services allow for rapid production of metal prototypes using cutting, bending, and welding techniques.
Applications: Enclosures, brackets, and chassis for electronics, machinery, and more.
Materials: Stainless steel, aluminum, and mild steel.
Advantages:
- High durability for functional testing.
- Custom finishes like powder coating or anodizing.
- Fast lead times for flat or formed metal parts.
