What is Prototyping?

A prototype is a first-attempt physical model of a product that’s made through a special manufacturing process like CNC machining. It can be used for many purposes and is usually the first step in the mass-production of a product. For instance, many companies turn to Turning machining China Inc. to produce a physical part quickly in order to capture a sales opportunity or validate a design.

Prototyping is an advantageous process that is used for:

Showing customers and investors a physical model of your product in as little amount of time as possible
Demonstrating the appearance, features, and dimensions of your product
Generating multiple separate versions of the product with different colors, surface textures, and finishing processes
Ensuring that all parts are standardized in terms of dimension, shape, quality, and size
Testing the product on the market before bringing it to full production
Finding and repairing potentially costly design defects before reaching market
Improving and streamlining the entire production process

Overall, rapid prototyping in Boston saves money, time, and hassle by creating a single run of a product that can be tested and optimized to peak performance before having to invest in thousands of units. Contact us to see how this process may help your business realize a variety of cost savings.

Who Uses Prototype Machining?

Multiple Boston, MA industries have recognized the advantages of prototype machining and use it to limit potential disruptions in the development cycle. Turning machining China Inc. has successfully worked with a large number of companies, of all sizes, to achieve their prototype manufacturing needs. We have worked with the following Boston, MA industries and others develop prototypes rapidly and within cost requirements:

With the of “just-in-time” manufacturing, the automotive industry requires new parts to be developed as quickly as possible and in any quantity. Turning machining China Inc. partners with Boston, MA automotive firms ranging from small custom shops to well-known OEMs to build prototype parts in multiple materials, delivered affordably and on time.
Boston, MA oil and energy firms have notable demands for prototypes: they need to be built to withstand the rigors of underground pipeline burial, mining, and refining. Turning machining meets these demands by excelling in machining prototypes made of exotic materials such as plastics, brass, and alloy steel.
The Boston, MA medical industry requires parts to be developed to some of the most exacting tolerances in the machining industry: above all, making sure that defective parts do not make it to market is truly the difference between life and death. As well, medical parts are often quite small and complicated in design. Turning machining China Inc. is equipped with the latest 5-axis CNC machining tools that can not only rapidly fabricate medical part prototypes regardless of size, but also provide process and tracking reports mandated by the FDA.
Aerospace manufacturers need parts with highly technical geometries and dimensions, and in many cases using specialized metals that do not deform at high temperatures and altitude. In addition, the unique pressures and characteristics of flight require parts made to exacting tolerance and design standards. Our veteran technicians are eager to tackle the challenges of aerospace prototype manufacturing, and our MA machine shop is devoted to delivering aerospace manufacturers parts built to the optimal standard of quality.

This history of prototype manufacturing for multiple MA industries makes Turning machining China Inc. a true partner throughout the manufacturing process. Our highly-trained team of engineers and machinists can help you recognize flaws in your product, suggest design and reliability improvements, and otherwise improve the quality of your Boston, MA end product while lowering your R&D costs.

Reasons to Use CNC Machining for Rapid Prototyping in Boston, MA

Prototyping can use a variety of methods to complete projects, but CNC machining is by far the most effective. Also known as computer numerical control, CNC allows you to digitally design your product, program the design data into the computer, and let the CNC machine take it from there, trimming away portions from a piece of raw material to create the desired end-shape.

Using computers eliminates human error and improves the efficiency of the cuts which, in turn, means that you can produce flawless, quick parts both the first time and every time afterwards. There are a variety of other reasons to choose CNC machining for prototyping, such as:

More precise – Computer-controlled machines use modern cutters that are extremely accurate and precise in order to create parts with tolerances sometimes as tight as +.05 mm.
Faster – Modern CNC machine can typically create one part in a matter of minutes, which is invaluable towards getting the end-results to market faster.
Different materials to choose from – CNC machine tools are able to work with virtually any machinable material, which includes many varieties of plastic substrates and metals. Product developers can then test different materials to see which is best for their application.
No fixed tooling necessary – CNC machined parts do not need to use separate tools and dies, which helps reduce the lead time and initial investment costs for new product development.
Easy to modify – New products often go through many moderations and iterations to improve upon the original design. With CNC machining, you can easily alter digital instructions as many times as necessary.
