Rapid Prototyping
Rapid prototyping – based on different processes we offer rapid production of prototype and pre-series production parts.
Take advantage of the prototype manufacturing process and reduce your development costs through timely optimization during your product development.
Rapid prototyping enables the efficient use of series materials already in prototypes.
In addition to individual components assemblies are also accurately manufactured.
Thus, a wide variety of functions and loads can be tested in the early phase of development.
The use of modern 3D printers achieves high resolution and very high dimensional precision that allows very good surface structures.
With various manufacturing processes, we offer flexibility in the desired lot sizes.Started with batch size 1 up to several hundred components.
Prototyp-parts from series production material
In addition to standard parts, crystal-clear, transparent parts can be produced up to the 3D printing of optical lenses.
By means of 3D printing, not only prototypes but also loadable, durable end products can be produced which are “printed” according to customer requirements.
Mechanical parts / movable plastic parts
With modern 3D printing, it is possible to produce fine mechanisms with moving parts in one operation. The plastic parts work directly after production, without further assembly. Complex mechanical combinations of individual articles are possible.
Beside single parts made of series production materials assemblies are also accurately manufacturable. Individual articles of assemblies can thus be checked for assembly capability even before the article datasets are completed. Various functions and loads can be tested in the early phase of development. Finished articles or the finished assembly can be presented before the tools are started.
Multi-component prototypes
Plastic parts, with different material combinations of plastic (for example, hard / soft combinations), can also be produced in 3D printing.
3D printing – advantages summarized:
- Time and cost savings
- Reduction of costs in development and design by means of test samples
- Increased development quality by early detection of failures in design process
- First test options by selective use of different materials for series-production
- First test options by selective use of different materials for series-production
- Shortening the market launch of new products by more efficient development
- Test gauges verification
