 The Advantages of Prototype Machining Services


For designers of any part or product, there will always be a need and desire to see the concept come to life once you reach the end of the design stage. You’ll need to consider the design requirements, machining processes involved, and look at where the design can be tweaked to make for more efficient production.

 

The benefits of our prototype machining services include:


  •  Fast delivery of prototype parts – our CNC machining service always has common prototype materials ready to go. This and the processes we use ensure that lead times are always fast when making prototype parts.


  • Consistency and quality – the accuracy and consistency of our CNC machinery leads to an accurate prototype part that can be analysed for performance and quality with a view to any required upgrades.


  • Cost-effective parts – there is always a desire for the lowest price wherever possible. Our prototype machining service will provide the fastest and most cost-effective way to reach the lowest price once full production begins.


  • Versatility – our services can use a wide range of materials, such as aluminium, brass, acrylic, and many more materials. This is another way to look at common materials for prototypes and future runs for your product or component.



  • Precision for prototypes – the idea behind a prototype is to give you a chance to view what the product could become. Precision is therefore vital to this part of the process. Our CNC machining for prototypes delivers this accuracy in production.

Our Services

Sliding Head

Our use of sliding head lathes ensures that cycle times and costs are significantly reduced. Achieving up to 39 machining positions with 8 axes, often a component can be completed in one single set-up, improving efficiencies.

CNC Milling

Our CNC machining services allow for the creation of complex milled parts at velocity. This expands the potential range of materials without minimising efficiency and standards. We can manufacture complex parts in a wide range of sizes, quantities, and with multiple angled features.

CNC Turning

Our team continues to refresh our fleet of machines, investing significantly in our Turning and Mill/Turn technology. This allows us to remain ahead of the game, providing a tailored service and solution to our customers that is hard to match within the industry.

The 3 axis CNC machining services offer the best value in the industry for small CNC machines. It packs a punch, an efficient smaller package that delivers big results and high standards of productivity. The best way to maintain productivity in a smaller space.

4 axis CNC machining is where the 4th axis rotates whilst the machine is not cutting, aiding precision. Our range of CNC machining services is designed to offer a wide range of precision to fit any manufacturing complexities and demand.

We continue to innovate, refining our 5 axis CNC machining services for maximum output at reduced time and cost. The 5 axis provides you with the power and precision for myriad uses, maintaining accuracy and delivering consistently.

Utilising the very latest technology in CAD/CAM helps us to provide compliance and consistent manufacturing processes for our clients. It helps us to deliver CNC machining services that are precise, complete the process right the first time and reduce lead times.

CMM inspection is another service Rotec offers to boost the accuracy and consistency of manufacturing processes. It involved precision CMM inspection services that takes CAD models and 2D drawing formats and provides a detailed report tailored to each client and process.

Creating a prototype is an important part of the manufacturing process. Our services allow our clients to see a product, part, or concept in action before making a decision on whether to continue production or make necessary changes.

INDUSTRIES

Our Prototype Machining Company

Prototype machining services are the best way to create a few functional parts or a one-off product to test functionality, accuracy, and performance with a view to a wider production run. Precision is important, and at Rotec we are committed to investing in the latest technology that allows us to meet robust requirements from our customers and provide them with the best customer support when it comes to prototypes and product development.
