“These are low-volume, high-value parts Protolabs is manufacturing for us.”

"We have established what I consider to be a very good and mutually beneficial relationship with Protolabs. There are still some cosmetic developments to work on with EasyRide2, but I have absolute confidence that Protolabs will deliver what we need."

“It’s baked into our design and our R&D process now. It’s easier for me to order a mold for a part for a medical device (from Protolabs) than it is for me to pay my mortgage online.”

”I fished with the only lures that were available in the tackle shops at the time. However, after using them I was greatly disappointed with the results. I realised the lures weren’t efficient and there was a gap in the market for a more durable, faster-running and deeper-diving lure.”

“I found Protolabs to be very quick, very responsive and very supportive. Their level of service has always been superb.”

“The pressure on the product development team is enormous,” he says. "If a plastic part is approved for production it has to be 100% right. We leave nothing to chance. Our customers trust us implicitly.”

"We were strapped for time and working with a small budget to create our initial prototype. We put our trust in Protolabs, since we had already worked with them on other projects."

"We are pushing the boundaries of taxonomic data analysis that may even discover previously unknown species."

“Wearing the bracelet is a constant reminder that it’s not only possible to recycle plastic items; you can recover them and use them to create something beautiful. That’s how the Reach for Change bracelet came about.”

"There was a need to build a lightweight, heat-resistant and high-quality anti-vibration mount without increasing the size of the ECU. One with a complex design yet manufactured in small volumes."

“What has been so remarkable is how Protolabs staff took their time to explain and basically taught us about plastic, an area we did not know much about. Consultants often come in, do the work, and then take their knowledge with them when they leave. That's not the case with …

“Protolabs’ quick-turn manufacturing services coupled with automated quoting and design analysis enable our iterative design and development process to meet tight deadlines with reduced design risk.”

"The online service was excellent, providing clear and understandable information, which guided my choice of material and finish for the piece."

“This application was an ideal fit for production 3D printing. So often people tend to rely on additive manufacturing for prototyping and then move to molding or machining when they get to production. But for me, 3D printing parts in the exact quantities that I need really makes for an …

"Today, Protolabs has become an integral part of our product development process. Compared with the way we worked before, it offers a huge advantage. We are able to carry out much more frequent and realistic tests. And, we reduce time and money to get from 3D CAD to a finished …
