Innovation brings its rewards
21/07/2010 Email to a friend   Comment on this article
Award winning injection-moulding and CNC machining services provider Proto Labs has brought together years of knowledge and experience with modern technology delivering one of the most innovative processes that drastically cuts the time and money spent on product development.

Innovation brings its rewardsThis year has been very good for Proto Labs, the fastest source for prototype and low-volume production plastic parts in the world. Already in the first six months of 2010, Proto Labs has won three prestigious awards that recognise the innovative nature of the Protomold and First Cut services.

The first award was the Queen's Award for Enterprise in International Trade; recognising the phenomenal success of our services across Europe, in particular France and Germany – two of the largest manufacturing economies in the EU.

Next came the MWP Award for Best Subcontractor-Machining category. This award recognises First Cut and the innovative process of machining plastic and aluminum parts from your 3D CAD models in as little as one business day.

And finally, the MX Award for Integrated e-business; recognising the success of the Proto Labs process in drastically reducing the time it takes to get fully functional parts in quantities from 1 to 10,000+.

These successes are born from the hard work and dedication of a team that believe in one thing –making sure you get your part, not when it fits into a rigid production schedule, but when you want it.

And that is still the foundation of our innovation…Proto Labs takes your 3D CAD model, processes it using a powerful super-compute cluster to develop the cutting paths necessary to produce your Protomold tooling or your First Cut part – fast. Doing it this way means the super-compute cluster also produces an online accurate cost – never an estimate - that updates when you choose options such as material, quantity and delivery - instantly.

Being an award winner (several times over) makes us proud but more importantly, gives you peace of mind in the knowledge you are dealing with a leader in technology proving that speed and quality can go together with the right use of technology and people.
