Rapid Prototype
Top-Notch Rapid Prototyping Service
At Creatingtec, we deal in the creation of top-notch, cost-effective prototypes. We are the ideal one-stop-shop for all prospects seeking rapid prototyping services. This is owing to our diverse range of tech and services. In addition, we focus on the low-volume creation of parts amounting to 10,000+. Here is further insight into the rapid prototyping process and the services we have to offer.
It refers to a group of special manufacturing methods that uses a 3D design in making top-notch physical parts. Prototypes aid in improving the final product. They thus act as a stepping stone towards the final production process as well as testing. We are usually able to quickly and cheaply make them. This is without the need for investing in costly hard tooling. Most of our clients prefer making such physical parts quickly. This helps them grab any fleeting sale prospects or validate their designs.
Firstly, prototypes allow our clients to show their investors a physical model of the intended product. Secondly, it allows them to showcase the features and dimensions of the product. Thirdly, it allows them to assess the product’s market before committing to production. Fourthly, it helps them save time and cut costs when identifying and dealing with design errors. Fifthly, it aids in the overall streamlining of the final production line. Lastly, it helps our client create multiple forms of a product. It may come in different colors, textures and finishes. They can then settle on the one they find pleasing.
What Prototyping Services Do We Offer?
CNC Machining
We use CNC machining in making top-notch prototypes from plastics and metals. It allows us to achieve this without having to invest in costly tooling. CNC machining helps achieve tight tolerances while still achieving quality surface finishes. In addition, we can use it to create a fully working part. This often has threaded and tapped holed as well as accurate flat surfaces.
We have several CNC mills, EDM machines and CNC lathes at disposal. This enables us to meet all your CNC needs. Our experts strive to ensure that you have a worry-free rapid prototyping experience.
Metal 3D Printing
We ideally use metal 3D printing in the creation of complex metal parts. It achieves this while combining high strength and lightweight parts. The process does not need any hard tooling and we can print the parts in a matter of hours. This makes the process cost-effective and efficient. Our in-house team of experts is adept at any task you put before them. They strive to ensure you achieve a top-notch metal 3D printing experience.
Vacuum Casting
Vacuum casting is another rapid prototyping service that we offer. We are often able to create up to 30 top-notch copies using the original master pattern. The part can come from an array of resins that includes high-grade engineering plastics. We even have the option of over-molding in multiple materials.
Our experts are adept at making production quality cast copies using the master pattern. You not only benefit from our keen attention to detail but also get an entire suite of post finishing services. Click on the relevant links for in-depth details on vacuum casting.
SLA and SLS
SLA is amongst the first forms of 3D printing. The process is fast even when making prototypes with complex internal features. We sometimes use SLA in making the master patterns for vacuum cast molds. SLA is ideal for the creation of small volumes of prototypes or the final product. Luckily, we are able to meet any high-volume needs using our other methods.
Services
Prototyping is a vital step in the journey of a product up until it gets to the final user. You need to partner with the correct manufacturer to get it right. You can rely on us to bring your designs to life within the given timeframe.
