Need a Model Quickly? Achieve Quality Results with Prototype Projects’ Expertise

When you need a model in a short timeframe, the pressure to maintain high-quality standards is essential. At Prototype Projects, we understand that engineers rely on us not only for our rapid turnaround but also for the accuracy and reliability of our work. Whether your project requires the durability of CNC machining, the flexibility of 3D printing, or the versatility of vacuum casting, we have the right solution to meet your needs without compromise. 

A Fast, Reliable Process with Consistent Results 

Engineers working on tight deadlines need a team they can trust. Our streamlined processes and highly experienced technicians are geared towards delivering a fast, consistent service. From initial design to final delivery, we work closely with you to ensure every detail meets your specifications. 

We specialise in CNC Machining, 3D Printing (including SLS, SLA, DLP, PµSL, and PolyJet), and Vacuum Casting, all managed in-house to maintain strict control over quality and lead times. Each technology brings unique advantages, and our team of experts is here to advise on the best option based on your design, budget, and timeframe. 

Leveraging Material Properties for Optimal Performance 

Choosing the right material is critical to achieving the desired performance. With our diverse material selection across different model-making technologies, we provide options that meet stringent functional, aesthetic, and durability requirements. Need a lightweight prototype for testing, a high-strength material for functionality, or a flexible component for assembly? Our team can guide you to the right material, optimising properties to balance speed with performance. 

For example: 

SLS and SLA offer detailed, accurate parts with a range of materials, from durable to flexible, suited for functional testing or display models. 

PolyJet provides multi-material capabilities for complex designs, combining soft and rigid elements in a single print. 

CNC Machining delivers unmatched material choices, including metals and engineering plastics, suitable for highly accurate parts that require strength. 

Vacuum Casting is ideal for short runs of high-quality parts, allowing for material choices that closely mimic production materials in both feel and performance. 

Our Customer Service: Here When You Need Us 

Every project comes with its own unique requirements and challenges. We’re proud of our customer support, which enables engineers to get clear answers and proactive advice at each step. Whether you’re refining a concept model or need an accurate functional prototype, we can provide insights and solutions tailored to the specific project at hand. 

Getting Started Quickly 

To begin, send us your design files via our quoting page. We accept 3D files (STEP files are best) and 2D drawings with GD&T information, which allows us to capture specific tolerances for enhanced accuracy. After a review of your requirements, our team will recommend the best method for achieving your model in the timeframe needed, with suggestions for materials and processes that balance quality with speed. 

Talk to us

With our expertise and dedication, getting a high-quality model in a hurry doesn’t have to mean cutting corners. Contact us on 01763 249760 to discuss your model making needs. You can also request a quote via our website.
