One part to
prove the design.
Machined samples in real production materials — ready for fit and function testing.
A machined prototype is made from the same material and with the same processes as the final part, so what you test is what you’ll get. Order a single piece to prove a design, or a small pilot run before committing to production.
Real materials, real results.
Unlike 3D prints, machined prototypes have production-grade strength, tolerances and surface finish — so your tests mean something.
Feedback before you commit.
A machinist reviews every drawing and flags features that could be simpler, cheaper or faster to make — before the production run.
Ready to scale.
When the design is approved, the same program and setup carry straight into production — no re-learning, no surprises.

Prototypes questions.
Is there a minimum order?
No — we machine single prototypes as well as pilot and production runs.
How fast can I get a prototype?
Quotes go out within one business day. Lead time depends on the part; we’ll give you a date in the quote.
Can the same part go into production later?
Yes. The program and setup from your prototype are kept and reused for production.
Have a drawing?
Send it over — we’ll reply with a price and lead time, usually within one business day.
