What is Rapid PrototypingRapid prototyping quickly converts early-stage design concepts into physical models, offering a fast and cost-effective way to see ideas in reality. This approach is particularly effective through technologies such as 3D printing, CNC machining, and more, with the ability to deliver prototypes typically within 1-3 business days.Opting for prototyping is essential for speeding up the design process while reducing the financial and operational risks associated with new product development. It enables thorough testing and refinement of designs, ensuring that each iteration is an improvement on the previous one. This process is critical for making informed decisions early in the development cycle, minimizing the risk of expensive alterations later on.Rapid prototyping quickly converts early-stage design concepts into physical models, offering a fast and cost-effective way to see ideas in reality.

CNC machining, including both CNC milling and CNC turning, is an excellent choice for rapid prototyping when parts need to be assessed in their final material form. This method allows for prototypes to be made from fully dense stock, providing accurate and durable models. SANGO Automation specializes in machining a broad spectrum of metals and plastics, ensuring versatility for your project requirements. Our rapid CNC prototyping services deliver high-quality machined prototypes quickly, often in 1 day. This speed, coupled with our cost-effective pricing, allows engineers to order multiple prototypes at once, facilitating quick and thorough product evaluations.

Rapid Vacuum Casting

Tight tolerances to ±0.001 in, true engineering materials, excellent surface finish.

Production-intent resin, near-zero per-part cost once tooled.

Low-cost tooling, fast turnaround on brackets, panels and enclosures.

No tooling, fastest turnaround, complex geometry at no cost premium.

Injection-molded-like finish and material properties without steel tooling.

Higher per-part cost at volume; some geometries need multi-axis setups.

Tooling cost and lead time only pay off above a minimum quantity.

Not suited to deep-drawn or highly complex 3D forms.

Layer lines and anisotropic strength versus machined or molded parts.

Silicone tooling has a limited life, typically 20-30 parts per mold.
