CNC Machined Prototypes:
The CNC machining of prototypes allows you to have the real material instead of a SL SLS stimulant
- We routinely use high quality PMMA (Lucite Acrylic), PC, ABS, POM (Delrin), PTFE (Teflon), Ultem, Nylon etc.
- We even injection mould our own knowledge modeling blocks in unusual injection moulding grade materials, such a Noryl and Ulterm, and then machine prototype
- We can also machine aluminums, copper based materials, and even hardened tool-steel.
- We use to heat-shrink cutter holders for our high-speed spindles to ensure cutting accuracy.
- We also have a portable FARO Laser Scanning Arm which can be positioned next to the machine to inspect 3D parts before being removed from the machine.
- Delivers are typically from 1 to 5 days plus shipment-typically 2 days
