What is Rapid Prototype?
Rapid prototyping is a collection of techniques that use a 3D computer-aided design (CAD) file to quickly produce a fabrication of an entire physical model or its part(s). This technology makes it possible for companies to create physical objects from 3D digital images faster than ever before. AARNE Model Makers and Prototypes use rapid prototyping to build isolated parts or entire models in less than 24 hours. You can ask us to create variations of the same model so that you can see for yourself how the different versions of your model will look and function in real life.
Creating Rapid Prototypes Using 3D Printing & CNC Machines
The procedure to create a prototype largely depends upon the material you choose. Metal and plastic prototypes can be built using CNC machines as well as 3D printing. Our 5-axis CNC machines are capable of creating perfect prototypes out of materials including stone, metal, plastic, foam and fibreglass. 3D printers, on the other hand, use plastic and metal in powder form to develop 3D prototypes. Our 3D printers are fully capable of creating large objects. So, even if you need a large 3D printed prototype, we have the required equipment and the expertise to produce it.
We have been working with both CNC machining and 3D printing since the early days of their inception. That is how our designers and engineers have gained the experience in developing a wide variety of prototypes from all kinds of materials using rapid prototype and other processes needed to deliver high-quality results. Whatever your individual needs, you can be sure that we will provide outstanding results in as little time as possible.
Your 3D CAD Design
If you have a CAD design ready, we can quickly produce the prototype for you. If not, we can create a 3D CAD design of the part or model you want. If you have the real model, we use our 3D scanner to obtain its 3D CAD image. If not, we build your design on SolidWorks from ideas, photographs or sketches. Once our CAD designers have created the digital image, we use rapid prototyping with CNC machines or 3D printers to quickly build the prototype, swiftly and accurately.
Rapid Prototyping – Quick + Quality
Quick production of a product from its digital image means you’ll get an opportunity to test the real model and adjust it if needed. Rapid prototyping has made it possible to come up with quality models in next to no time. If the model’s CAD image is ready, it takes less than 24 hours to produce a perfect prototype from it.
At AARNE, we only use the highest quality material for any and all models. Our commitment to quality begins with choosing the best material for your model/prototype and ends with delivering you an outstanding piece.
Types of Objects Build with Rapid Prototype
Whether you are a company interested in having a promotional prototype designed or an individual wishing to own a unique piece of art, rapid prototyping does the job for you. You can build objects including:
Promotional company logo
Promotional models & prototypes
Parts of machinery
Models of cars, bikes, phones, famous monuments, shoes, houses, etc.
Pieces of art
Sculptures
Equipment
Miniature models
With recent advancements in technology, no material cannot be converted into a real 3D object using rapid prototyping. With this freedom, it becomes simple to have products created quickly.
Why AARNE
We have been in this industry for over 15 years during which we have worked on models and prototypes for well-known companies, including Porsche, Harley Davidson, Nikon, Xbox and Domino’s Pizza. Our highly trained and fully qualified staff ensures that each piece we create has the quality and finish expected of AARNE models.
Along with talent, we also use the latest technology to achieve perfection in the final product. Some of the high-tech equipment and processes we use include 5-axis CNCs, 3D printers and scanners, GRP moulding, vacuum forming, rapid prototype, metal and acrylic fabrication, vacuum casting and laser cutting.
However complex the job, we make it simple for you. All you need to do if you want a model/prototype designing is call us or write to us. We will take it from there and deliver you an outstanding model/prototype of the highest quality, design and make, on time.
