For Product Developers & Hardware Startups
Check the fit on Monday, revise on Wednesday, run your first batch the week after. We print your prototypes and pilot production in Cape Town, with no mould and no minimum order.
Case study
NTT-Tech's 4G elevator emergency dialer needed an enclosure that fits a certified device exactly. We designed it in Onshape, printed a first unit to check the fit, then moved to a monthly PETG production run.
Electronics enclosuresHousings designed around your PCB with mounting bosses, cut-outs and snap-fit or screwed lids.
Physical parts to test assembly, ergonomics and mounting before you commit to tooling.
First hundreds of units for testing and early customers, with consistent quality batch to batch.
We model your part in-house if you have a sketch, a sample or a drawing rather than a CAD file.
A STEP or STL file, a drawing, or a sketch, plus the quantity and where the product will live.
A first unit to check the fit. Revisions are new files, not new tooling.
Once it fits, we keep the file and print settings on record.
Print the run in the quantity you need and reorder as you scale.
Yes. That is what our NTT-Tech enclosure did: designed, sampled, then produced as an ongoing monthly run. The same file and settings carry from prototype to batch.
For low volumes, usually yes: there is no mould to pay for, and design changes cost a new file. At high volumes a mould often wins on unit price. Give us your target quantity and we will say honestly which makes sense.
Yes, in-house in Onshape. Send a STEP export, a dimensioned drawing, a sample or a sketch.
A one-off prototype usually takes 2-3 days. Quotes come back within 24 hours.
PETG for tough indoor housings, ASA for outdoor and UV exposure, ABS for a classic enclosure plastic, and polycarbonate where heat or stiffness matters.
