How to Make Complex Prototypes?
By NICE Rapid | Jan 25 , 2020

The prototype is used by many companies to check whether the product design is reasonable when developing new products, thereby speeding up the advent of new products.


However, with the rapid development of various aspects of society, the diversification of products has led to more and more complicated structures and shapes of the prototype. This requires us to find ways to save time and cost while ensuring quality.


Therefore, CNC machining and 3D printing are a good way to manufacture complex prototypes.


We can make lots of more complex prototype by CNC Machining, and the accuracy is also relatively high. If the structure is too complicated, it needs to be disassembled in manufacturing. For complex plastic products, materials such as ABS, PC, and acrylic (PMMA) are generally used for processing. These materials have good viscosity. After disassembling and splicing, the appearance and strength of the product are not affected.


Also, we can produce a variety of complex curved surfaces and special-shaped structures by 3D printing, and it can achieve places that traditional machines can't arrive. However, the cost of 3D printing large-scale prototypes is too high, so many large-scale prototypes with complex structures are used CNC disassembly processing.


Many experienced and powerful prototype manufacturers will use a variety of processing methods to achieve complementary advantages.
