Rapid Prototyping Services
Turn product concepts and CAD designs into physical prototypes for proof-of-concept, visual evaluation, user experience, functional validation, and product development.
Rapid Prototype
Services
With more than two decades of engineering experience, MILESTONE provides Rapid Prototype Services that help transform product concepts and CAD designs into physical prototypes for evaluation, validation, and product development.
Our team can work from an existing CAD model or an early-stage product concept. We review designs for draft requirements, radii, interference, and other prototyping considerations, then make the required design modifications before prototype development.
We support different prototyping requirements through additive processes such as SLA, FDM, and SLS, as well as subtractive CNC machining, injection molding, and casting based on the application and prototype objective.
