Product Overview

Our Rapid Prototyping Service with Filament Deposition Modeling (FDM) is designed for automotive car parts development, offering quick and cost-effective solutions from STL file upload to physical models. This service bridges the gap between digital design and mold injection manufacturing, allowing you to test form, fit, and function before committing to full-scale production.

By leveraging engineering-grade filaments and high-precision FDM printing, we support car manufacturers, OEMs, and design studios in building durable prototypes and mold-ready components.

FAQ

Q: What file formats do you accept?
A: STL is preferred, but we also accept STEP, IGES, and OBJ files.

Q: Can FDM prototypes be used for functional testing?
A: Yes, especially with nylon and carbon-fiber filaments, which provide durability.

Q: How accurate are the prototypes?
A: Tolerances are within ±0.1–0.2 mm, suitable for automotive design verification.

Q: Do you provide mold injection services as well?
A: Yes, we provide mold-ready prototyping to transition into full-scale injection production.

Q: How fast can I get my car part prototype?
A: Lead time is typically 5–12 business days, depending on size and complexity.
