Prototyping of silicone parts
Rapid production of demonstration and other prototypes for functional testing
Initial demonstration prototypes can be made available in as little as one week
Time is everything
We have the answers
Do you need initial prototypes of your silicone or 2K parts for demonstration and functional testing as quickly as possible?
RICO’s prototyping services get the job done!
Prototypes are vital to turning developments into actual products. Initial tests can be carried out quickly.
We find the ideal prototype concept to meet each customer’s specific requirements. The form of prototyping that best satisfies your needs depends on the:
- material
- required quantity
- complexity of your product
- and the specifications for real-life operating conditions.
Prototype concepts
Demonstration prototypes are made solely for demonstration purposes and are not suitable for functional testing. 3D printing is one of the techniques used to make the parts and their molds.
- They are not made within tolerance
- The final material is used where possible
- Only a limited number of sample components can be produced
Test prototypes are injection molded prototype parts. The quality is very similar to that of volume production, and they are suitable for preliminary testing.
- Made within tolerance
- Made in the final material
- Up to 1,000 sample parts can be produced
Pre-production prototypes are prototype parts made to volume-production quality.
- Pre-production molds correspond precisely to the volume-production molds
- Made in the final material
- Quantities of up to 100,000
