Prototyping
Form is validated through the physical product.
Prototyping translates geometries and intentions into a product that can be evaluated. Each iteration reduces uncertainty and supports better technical decisions.
Progressive prototypes
Early constructions validate proportions, architecture and assembly sequence. Later iterations refine materials, function, edges, stitching and finishing.
Functional SLS components
Additive prototyping in PA12 makes it possible to test parts, shells and interfaces before committing to final tooling or processes.
Reference sample
The approved sample consolidates construction, materials and expected quality, becoming the reference for industrialization and production.
Key questions
Prototypes and samples
What is the difference between a prototype and a sample?
A prototype validates form, function and construction; a reference sample consolidates materials, finishes and criteria for manufacturing.
Do you use 3D prototyping?
When useful, SLS PA12 components validate geometries, interfaces and assemblies before final tooling.
How many iterations are required?
It depends on complexity. Revisions are planned to reduce technical risk and converge on a manufacturable solution.
