Accelerate Your Path to Production with Our 4-Step Rapid Prototyping Process
Bringing a product to market quickly takes more than a concept—it takes functional prototypes you can trust. Our proven 4-step rapid prototyping process helps reduce development time, control costs, and move your design forward with confidence.
Unlike many prototype providers, we don’t produce cosmetic stand-ins made from substitute materials. We build fully functional parts and components using production-intent materials—so what you test performs like the real thing. That means more accurate validation, fewer surprises later, and faster progress toward launch.
In many cases, we can deliver prototype labels or overlays within a week or less, with layouts fitting up to two 12×18 sheets—handled with efficient, single-lot pricing to keep projects moving and budgets predictable.
Now enhanced with in-house 3D printing capabilities
Our additive manufacturing tools allow us to:
- Quickly produce fit-check components and assembly aids
- Create alignment fixtures and functional mockups
- Validate ergonomics and interface layouts early
- Support faster iteration cycles without tooling delays
- Reduce risk before committing to production investments
By combining functional printed electronics expertise with rapid 3D prototyping, we help teams move from concept to confident decision-making faster than ever.
Turn Your Concept Into A Prototype
- In-House Manufacturing Engineering: Includes 3D modeling capabilities
- Digital Printing: On a variety of substrates and without added cost per color
- Laser Cutting and Auto-die Cutting: With the finishing precision you need – tolerances to within .005” – and eliminates the need for time- and cost-intensive tooling
- Custom Assembly: Provides a final prototype ready for production approval
- Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing): Enables rapid creation of custom fixtures, alignment guides, and housing-fit verification models in-house—reducing customer risk, accelerating validation, and supporting faster design adjustments during prototype development
Additive Manufacturing
In-house additive manufacturing supports faster, more precise assembly validation and project flexibility. Key benefits include:
- Rapid creation of custom assembly fixtures, jigs, and alignment guides
- Ability to verify housing fit and tolerances internally without requiring customer-supplied production components
- Faster response to engineering changes and design revisions
- Reduced tooling costs, setup time, and project risk
- Support for short-run and highly customized builds
- Improved quality validation earlier in the assembly process
- Greater protection of customer production housings and high-value parts
- Integration with precision CNC fixturing when tighter tolerances are required
- Stronger collaboration through faster iteration and real-time problem solving
Digital Printing Prototype Offers
Simple Samples: $150
If your primary goal to test surface materials then this is your pick. Receive two digitally printed press sheets of graphic overlays or labels. Optional choices are subsurface flood coat for opacity or label stock that already has adhesive. Both sheets are the same material. This does not include cutting.
Middle of the Road: $250
Looking for a little more in your sample? We’ve got you covered – with adhesive that is. This selection includes two digitally printed sheets of graphic overlays or labels with subsurface flood coat for opacity and full coverage adhesive. Both sheets are the same material. This does not include cutting or selective adhesive.
All-Inclusive: $350
If you’re looking for complete construction samples then this is your pick. Receive two digitally printed press sheets, subsurface flood coat for opacity, full coverage adhesive and laser cut parts. Both sheets are the same material.
