Model Making Service, Prototype Model Making

What is professional model making?

Professional model making is the utilisation of multiple skills, techniques and technologies to produce a 3D representation of an object for presentation, design verification, functional production testing as well as for architectural presentation.

When is model making the best solution?

When automated prototyping technologies or processes alone won’t do the job (for example due to size or complexity), or where the nature of the model requires the use of several different components produced by different means, prototype model making is often the answer.

If the model is for presentation purposes, its production may also involve an element of hand-finishing such as smoothing, painting or spraying.

We have a huge range of technologies, processes and materials for prototyping, additive manufacturing and model making at our disposal as well as a fully equipped finishing workshop.

Why choose Prototype Projects for your model making requirement?

Typically prototype model making and fabrication requires the use of multiple skills, machines and technologies, as well as a variety of finishing options. As a company that has continually grown and developed since it was established in 1980, we are able to offer all of the ingredients required for model making from our bureau in Royston.

Having so many skills, technologies and processes at our fingertips means we’re ideally equipped to offer a complete service for the fabrication of both simple and complex models of all shapes and sizes and for any purpose.

Our modelling services

Our model making services fall into four main areas:

Early design verification models

We can make early stage models – not to test strength, flow or durability characteristics but, at this stage, simply to verify how the product will look and feel, we call it a “Reality Check”.

Presentation models

Presentation models look, feel and behave like the finished product. They can be for presentation, or for use at trade shows for sales promotion or marketing evaluation and research.

Architectural models

Scaled architectural models of buildings and larger construction developments. In addition: cars, aeroplanes, ships, as well as models of other construction or structural engineering projects.

Advanced prototype models

Models can be made for functional testing and pre-manufacture production verification. They’re ideal to evaluate the physical and behavioural character aspects.

Our modelling skills

Our multi-skilled model makers are not only trained in the latest techniques and technologies. They also have years of experience and practice in the implementation and delivery of models using multiple disciplines, from automotive, seats and interior mouldings to technically functional models for complex medical devices.
