Prototyping Services
In many ways, the prototyping process is one of the most critical in product development. It’s the phase in which 2D concepts cross the threshold into the third dimension, taking the first crucial step toward mass production.
It also provides designers and engineers the opportunity to see how well their ideas translate into practical use and whether any adjustments need to be made. With our extensive capabilities and expertise, RevPart’s prototyping services are here to guide your vision into a successful reality.
Get Started With Quick Turn Prototypes
When inspiration strikes, the last thing you want to do is wait. RevPart’s quick turn prototyping services turn your concept into reality in a fraction of the time of other shops. Our expert prototyping staff determines the best prototyping services (SLA, SLS, CNC machining and more) to meet your requirements and works to get exactly the piece you need delivered to you as soon as just a few days.
Not all prototypes or prototype companies are built the same. Whether you need a first-look piece, a functional, testable product, a test of manufacturability or something completely different, RevPart can fulfill your needs. Our prototyping services utilize state-of-the-art technology and techniques to bring your creations to life. Even if you have no engineering experience, you can bring your concepts to us.
RevPart’s prototype development possibilities cover a wide range of industries and markets. We leverage rapid manufacturing services to assist customers in the medical, automotive, aerospace and industrial sectors. Clients appreciate our extensive product prototyping services such as molding, casting and 3D printing. We’re the go-to source for rapid prototyping services because of our experience and excellence.
From established design teams to entrepreneurs with nothing more than a bold idea, we’ve helped countless clients realize the full potential of their designs and ensure a smooth transition to market. No matter what type of prototyping help you require, depend on RevPart to deliver it. Reach out today to learn more.
Our Prototyping Services
3D Printing
Prototyping through the additive manufacturing process of 3D printing is the fastest, most cost-effective way to get your prototypes to you for first-look testing, dimension/fit measurement, or other early-stage, pre-functional needs. The SLA and SLS processes that we use require no tooling, lower material costs (only the material you use) and machine setup is as simple as loading in your .STL drawing. As experts, not newcomers, to the booming field of 3D printing, we provide innovative solutions to even the most complex prototyping project requirements.
CNC Machining
When a subtractive process is the best choice for your piece, RevPart’s proprietary 5-axis CNC machining process offers service you won’t find anywhere else. We’ve mastered the art of fully functional prototype development with highly complex geometries — all while maintaining the tightest of tolerances (down to .001”). From getting the quote to uploading your drawing to receiving your part, the RevPart process moves with the speed and efficiency that your best ideas demand.
Plastic Injection Molding
At RevPart, injection molded parts in prototype quantities is one of our specialties. With no minimum quantity or volume commitment required, you receive high-quality, production grade injection molded prototypes that give you the confidence that your part is ready to be fully produced. When you’re ready to move up to higher-quantity runs, we offer production-volume injection molding as well. With a wide variety of material options, plastic injection molding is one of the most versatile options that you can choose.
Silicone Molding
Silicone molding provides a broad range of options in flexibility and durometer, and is the right choice when you need parts with elastic or flexible qualities. In addition to increased flexibility, the properties of the silicone material make it perfectly suited for sterilization, which is often a requirement for the medical device or food-grade industries. If flexibility and receptiveness to sterilization are requirements for your product, then silicone molding is most likely the right choice for your prototypes.
Urethane Casting
Tooling costs are one of the major cost-prohibitive factors of the injection molding process. Tool steel molds also take weeks to create. Urethane casting solves those problems with a fast-turnaround, soft prototype-grade mold built on site and held to our same high standard of quality. Urethane molds are perfect for one-off, prototype and low-quantity runs, providing exactly the performance you need at a price that makes sense.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to make a rapid prototyping part?
Our rapid prototyping services can get the exact piece you want delivered to you in as little as a few days. All you need to do is upload your CAD drawings to us and we get right to work. For example, 3D printing makes it possible to have a prototype in your hands in just four days. Thanks to our capabilities, you can perform iterative testing easily and quickly to refine your designs until they’re perfect.
Which technology should I use for my prototype?
There’s no magic bullet for prototype development, and the solution that makes the most sense in your case will depend on a number of factors. These include your budget as well as the product’s functionality. Fortunately, we’re here to help. Just give us a call and our team will work with you to determine which type of prototyping is right for you.
Can you make a part that is clear or cast in a certain color?
We provide a number of options when it comes to colors and finishes. For instance, we have a wide range of paints to produce the exact shade you need for your urethane castings. Let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll do our best to match it.
How much does a prototype cost?
This will depend a great deal on the size and complexity of your prototype. If you reach out to us and provide some details, we will be happy to provide you with an estimate.
