Prototyping and 3D printing
From concept to real part in a few days.
Overview
From concept to real part in a few days: we design and produce models, prototypes and functional parts by 3D printing.
This approach lets you validate an idea, an assembly or a footprint before launching fabrication, or meet an occasional need for a specific part.
Fields of application
- Functional prototypes
- Occasional spare parts
- Jigs and tooling
- Equipment models
- Layout models
- Teaching parts
Our services
Prototypes
Validation of shapes, fits and mechanisms before fabrication.
Technical parts
Custom gears, supports, jigs and tooling.
Models
Scale equipment and layouts for project review.
3D design
Modelling of the part from a need, a sketch or an existing part.
Rapid iterations
From 3D model to printed part, with successive adjustments.
Advice
Choice of shape and material according to the part's use.
Our method
- 1
Need
Description of the part, its use and its constraints.
- 2
Design
3D modelling of the part or model.
- 3
Printing
Fabrication of the part on a 3D printer.
- 4
Validation
Testing, feedback and iteration if necessary.
Deliverables
- 3D model of the part
- Printed part or model
- Drawing of the part if necessary
- Successive iterations based on feedback
What you gain
- An idea validated before investing
- Short lead times
- A controlled cost for occasional parts
- Expressive models for project reviews

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to get a part?
The principle is rapid iteration: from 3D model to printed part in a few days, depending on size and complexity.
Can a part be printed from an existing sample?
Yes: the part is surveyed then modelled in 3D, which allows it to be reproduced or improved.
Are models used for project reviews?
Yes: a scale model makes it easier to validate equipment or a layout with the client.
