Every Apex machine shop needs to do prototyping. There are several things involved in prototyping. This includes testing and evaluating, clarifying production issues and selling it to other people. Patenting is another important part of the process.
Evaluating and Testing the Design
Evaluating and testing the design is an important part of custom machining in Apex NC. You may not be able to real version of the product using the drawings. If you create a prototype, then you can see what needs to be changed. It also allows you test the product before it goes into production.
Clarifying the Production Issues and Costs
It can be expensive to make changes after production has started. Prototyping will allow people to make changes before the production starts. This not only allows the process to go more smoothly, but it also keeps the cost of precision machining to a minimum.
Selling the Products
Most customers want to know what they are buying before they make a purchase. If you have a prototype, then it will be easier for the customers to commit to making a purchase. Your customers may be able to recommend changes.
Patents
If your Apex machine shop has a unique or new design, then it may need to be patented. It will be easier for you to sit down with an attorney and get your product patented if you have a prototype.
