Revolutionizing Low-Volume Acrylic Fabrication
▌ Industry Pain Points & Targeted Solutions
1. Prototyping & R&D Challenges
- Problem: 8-week waits for functional prototypes; $15k+ tooling costs for <50 units.
- Our Breakthrough:
- Zero-tooling CNC machining for 1-500 units
- ±0.05mm tolerance on complex geometries
- 72-hour turnaround for transparent prototypes
2. Medical Device Manufacturing
- Critical Need: Biocompatible acrylic parts with ISO 13485 compliance.
- Precision Approach:
- Laser-cut acrylic microfluidics (channel width: 0.2mm ±0.01mm)
- Autoclave-ready assemblies (withstands 134°C/30 PSI)
- 25-unit minimum orders for clinical trials
3. Industrial Equipment Upgrades
- Dilemma: Obsolete acrylic components with 12-week replacements.
- Rapid Resolution:
- Reverse engineering from damaged samples
- ESD-safe acrylic guards with 10⁶-10⁹ Ω/sq resistivity
- 10-day lead time for critical spares
