Prototyping
RS Coatings can produce high quality prototypes with the use of 3D printing technology.
Three dimensional CAD drawings presented as ”stl” files are loaded onto the machine to produce very accurate models achieving very tight tolerances with values down to 16 microns.
Unlike stereolithographic prototypes, the models we manufacture are not fragile. These can be comfortably finished to the customers’ specifications to illustrate the look and function of production items.
In some instances when the volumes required are low the 3D printed models can actually be used as functional products.
We presently offer the option to manufacture models in two materials, white ABS or semintransparent acrylic.
