Low Cost Small Scale Plastic Manufacturing

Thinking of how to get casing for that prototype or small scale production project of yours? Think PROTO LABS.




ProtoLabs cater for the need of product designers/developers, Kickstarters (small and medium enterprises) and Engineers to have custom parts for prototyping and short-run production. 

ProtoLabs manufacture custom plastic and metals parts for its customers using 3D printing, computer numerical control (CNC) machining and injection molding technologies. It is making production of custom parts easily accessible to product designers and Engineers worlwide.

The company has a  proprietary technology that eliminates most of the time-consuming and expensive skilled labor required in other conventional methods to manufacture parts in low volumes for its numerous customers spread all around the world and in different disciplines including consumer electronics, aerospace, auto parts, medical devices.

Proto Labs has its roots in the U.S.A. and presently operate in seven different countries including France, England, Italy, Germany and Japan.
 
To get a quote for your project, simply upload a 3D CAD model of your design to www.protolabs.com, a detailed quote will be sent to you within hours. Proto Labs can take orders for quantities as low as one part that you can get in your hands in one to three days.
 
The likelihood of errors are reduced because finished parts are made directly from the customer’s 3D CAD model. Cost of production is kept low due to the proprietary software of the company that automates tool-path generation to decrease manufacturing times and the fact that most of its business transaction with customers are done over the Internet further drives down cost of production.
