Rapid Prototyping Benefits

If you have a product, part or new idea that you want to take from file to final piece fast, then a prototype model is the perfect option. 3D printing & rapid prototyping has many benefits and can streamline costs and timelines to help you get ahold of your parts quickly. Learn how our rapid prototyping may benefit your projects and get your design to market faster.

Functional & Durable
Nylon Rapid Prototypes

If you value fully functional prototype parts that are robust and allow you to verify and test your design for fit and function, then our SLS (selective laser sintering) rapid prototyping option is unmatched. Some of the benefits of this type of rapid prototyping include:

Assemblies, Sales & Trade Show Models

3D Printing is not just for prototyping any more. You can also take advantage of the rapid prototyping technology and create full assemblies that are ideal for sales and trade show prototype models. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a 3D printed part must be worth a million.

What do I need to make a 3D printed part?

In order to quote or make a 3D printed part, you need to have a 3D CAD file drawing created. We do not offer drawing or scanning services. If you don’t have a CAD drawing of your part you should find a mechanical engineer/design to draw your part. See what is 3d printing.

We’ve built parts for as low as $3 per piece and up, when building multiples. However, each case is unique and dependent on several factors such as: size, area, volume, material used, time to build, commitment to area taken up, labor and what else we can build with it. Our minimum charge is $100.
We don’t like to ballpark pricing unless it’s coming from an existing customer. A guess can sometimes be made, however, you will need a CAD file to move forward and it’s very likely the cost of hiring someone to do the drawing may very well be more than your prototype. Asking how much something the size of a mug or computer mouse will cost rarely offers any value. Start by looking at the cost to get your CAD drawing first to see if that’s cost prohibitive for you.
Hire a mechanical engineer or mechanical designer as they can create 3D CAD drawings. In addition, their education and experience will be valuable later should you manufacture your parts.

We sure can. Whether is a scaled down model for a trade show or for a sales meeting, our 3d printed models can’t be beat! There are some very important things you should quick read first though to better understand what you need to know about 3d printing and your scaled down model.
