Here are the primary rapid prototyping processes we offer:
Rapid 3D printing
XinYang offers a variety of 3D printing technologies as part of their rapid prototyping service for additive manufacturing:
Our rapid prototyping services for 3D printing cater to a wide range of materials, including plastics and metals, offering a variety of material and finishing choices. In addition to prototyping, these additive manufacturing technologies can occasionally be utilized for production purposes.
Due to the absence of tooling, the prototyping process for 3D printed parts is quick while maintaining high build quality. Additional benefits consist of design flexibility and cost-effectiveness, particularly for small production runs.
3D printing is often preferred for concept models, but precision technologies SLM can also work for functional prototypes and even production parts.
FDM — Low-cost plastic parts prototyping
SLA — Plastic parts prototyping with exceptional surface finish
SLS — Strong prototyping parts in nylon or nylon glass
SLM — Metal parts prototyping in steel or titanium
Rapid CNC machining
XinYang runs an extensive array of CNC machining centers, mills, and lathes (specifically for CNC turning), which facilitate quick prototyping of CNC machined components crafted from either plastic or metal. Our services encompass a diverse selection of materials and finishing choices, as well as the opportunity to integrate CNC machining with various other rapid prototyping techniques.
CNC machining stands out as a top-tier rapid prototyping technology due to its high precision. While emphasizing quick turnaround times over extremely tight tolerances, the quality of rapid CNC machining remains exceptional.
Low volumes result in quick turnarounds, with CNC prototyping yielding parts that closely resemble production quality. Although more expensive than 3D printing, the surface finish and strength of the parts are frequently superior.
CNC Milling — Milled prototype & production parts in plastic and metal
CNC Turning — All types of round components
CNC Grinding — Tight tolerance and good surface
CNC EDM — For deep pocket & sharp conners.
Our 3D printing rapid prototyping services cover a diverse selection of materials, encompassing both plastics and metals, providing an array of material and finishing options. Apart from prototyping, these additive manufacturing technologies can also be occasionally employed for production needs.
The rapid prototyping of 3D printed parts guarantees high build quality due to the absence of tooling. Additionally, it provides benefits like design flexibility and cost-effectiveness, particularly for small production runs.
3D printing is often selected for creating concept models, whereas precision techniques such as SLM can be employed for functional prototypes and even manufacturing parts.
Rigid Plastics — Such as ABS, PC, PA simulate prototype parts
Soft Rubber — Rubber like prototypes from Shore A 30 to 90 degrees.
Wax — Patterns for low-vlume investment casting
Rapid tooling
Rapid tooling (bridge tooling or prototype tooling) refers to the rapid CNC machining of metal tooling for injection molding. It is therefore the first step toward rapid injection molding.
Prototyping tooling for molding is recommended for customers needing 100 to 2,000 units of their injection molded parts. If the quantity exceeds this range, production-level steel tooling might be a more suitable option.
Rapid tooling offers several benefits, such as quick turnaround times and the capability to conduct prototyping and testing of injection molded components that would typically require months to manufacture. Additionally, rapid tooling proves to be considerably more cost-effective compared to mass production tooling.
Despite the higher cost compared to 3D printing, rapid tooling and rapid injection molding offer plastic parts that closely resemble production quality, making them suitable for functional testing purposes.
Plastic Injection Mold
Die Casting Mold
Extrusion Mold
Rapid sheet metal prototyping is a set of rapid prototyping services for the production of sheet metal parts. This includes various forming, cutting, and assembly processes for manipulating the sheet metal stock in different ways.
Rapid sheet metal prototyping is generally used for flat parts like brackets and enclosures, and it can accommodate a range of sizes, including very large metal parts. Setup times can be longer than comparable processes, but sheet metal is highly cost-effective when making large and relatively simple parts.
An advantage of rapid sheet metal prototyping is that the solid sheet metal feedstock can later be CNC machined for additional features.
Extrusion Mold
Stamping
Welding
Rapid metal casting
It is advisable for customers requiring 100 to 2,000 units of their injection molded parts to utilize prototyping tooling for molding. For quantities beyond this range, production-level steel tooling may be a more appropriate choice.
Rapid tooling provides numerous advantages, including fast turnaround times and the ability to carry out prototyping and testing of injection molded components that would normally take months to produce. Moreover, rapid tooling is significantly more cost-efficient than mass production tooling.
Despite the elevated price in comparison to 3D printing, rapid tooling and rapid injection molding provide plastic components that closely resemble the quality of production, rendering them appropriate for functional testing objectives.
