Rapid prototyping

Rapid prototyping

At Artech, we use our expertise and experience to (rapid prototyping) quickly determine the right shape and the most suitable material for your application. By involving us at the early stages of your development process, you can save valuable time and money and accelerate your route to market. In this way, you maintain the lead over your competitors.

Why make prototypes?

Depending on the complexity of the rubber moulded product, it is often wise to develop prototypes first. This allows you to extensively test the design and assembly before you proceed to making a final production mould. With rapid prototyping, we quickly deliver a test product, so that you gain insight into the functionality of your moulded part early in the process. Any adjustments can then still be made quickly, without having to invest in a modified mould again.

Benefits of rapid prototyping:

• Fast delivery of test products: By using 3D printing and 3D modeling of rubbery prototypes, you will quickly receive a concrete example of your product.
• Identify opportunities for improvement: Problems or improvements are identified early in the process, which results in cost savings and no wasted time.
• Prevent construction errors: Early identification of potential errors ensures higher product quality and prevents unnecessary costs during the production of the final mould.

Quickly from prototyping to production

Thanks to our rapid manufacturing facilities, including our own mould workshop, compound development, rubber preparation and production capacity, we can quickly produce your first product series. This enables you to bring your product to market efficiently and quickly.
