In order to enhance service to our customers and provide accelerated prototype samples, ºìÌÒÊÓƵ has developed the in-house capability to produce production intent prototypes. The Rapid Prototype technology has become a value-added part of our design process, enabling the product design teams to better develop a product before ever cutting the first piece of steel for tooling.

ºìÌÒÊÓƵ also employs stereo lithography “Rapid Prototype” and 3D printing to support models of new designs.
