Rapid Prototyping - 3D Printing

Using the latest in Rapid Prototyping / 3D Printing Technology means that we offer our customers the quickest, most accurate and cost effective prototype development and design process validation. This can be done with a variety of materials all of which have been developed for a specific purpose. During the prototype feasibility stage the most appropriate process is identified inline with the specific requirement and quoted accordingly.

This usually is based on factors such as material properties available, time taken, accuracy required and cost incurred. We have processes that cover all aspects of the above to allow us to remain competitive in different market sectors - Automotive, Medical, Aerospace and Consumer Goods.

Stratasys J750 Polyjet Printer - 3D Printing:

Our Stratasys J750 3D printers are capable of making fully working assemblies built in one run on the machines - a water soluble support structure makes this possible. A wide range of materials are available + coloured multi material parts

Multi Coloured Medical Study Model.

Typical Application:

Fit and function model built via 3D Printer - used to validate CAD design before production tool sign-off - saves costly tool modification created by design errors.

Master generation for mould making such as Vacuum Casting - where timeframes are incredibly quick - Master 1 day, Silicone Tool 1 day and 3 - 4 parts manufacture per day.

Design - 3D Printing - RIM Moulding - Vacuum Casting - CNC Machining - Prototype Tooling - Injection Mould Tooling - Injection Moulding - Low Volume Production - Assembly.
