"After a short time, we reached the limits of production with the first printer. Both resolution and production capacity were soon no longer sufficient for our concepts."

“We have a strong commitment to pushing the boundaries in robotic manipulation. We know we can rely on Protolabs to support this through its responsiveness and high quality standards.”

“I was delighted to discover Protolabs. I really enjoyed working with the team who were incredibly enthusiastic, curious and ready to take on the challenge. I appreciated how they were always happy to share ideas and help drive the project forward.”

"You can easily pop them into an already-established process and collect information while you're providing a completely clean technology."

“We're a startup and we want to make parts as fast as possible and cost effectively. But we also want to do as much as we can in the United States as well, so it's nice to have a company that manufacturers in Minnesota. Protolabs seems to be quite competitive …

“First responders are telling us that every single day they go into dark, potentially harmful spaces where danger is ahead and they could use something to see into those spaces. The idea is to make it easier for first responders to help civilians but also to protect themselves from harm …

“The spoons from the initial production run came back amazingly well and we immediately placed an order for a further 900 spoons that were produced within a couple of weeks!”

“For elite athletes, as I was, it is extremely important to reduce the effects of repeated concussions. In addition, it is positive for both the individual and the club if the player can return to play earlier, both from a health and financial perspective. The results show that the PolarCap …

“The process worked very smoothly and was very easy. The cartridge is produced by injection moulding. Making the mould took a total of four weeks from the first upload of our CAD drawings. From there, it only took a couple of days before we received the first prototypes."

“However, this process relies on the accurate spacing of the actual winding. With this in mind we approached Protolabs to produce the moulded part designed to do the job – a plastic bobbin that acts as an accurate spacer on the core.”

“By providing design engineers with 1-business day turnaround, we’re giving them the ability to better manage their product design, reduce the number of preproduction difficulties and bring products to market quicker than ever before.”

“We approached Protolabs to 3D print our product, as we knew they use quality materials and with the ability to provide a superb, polished finish. We now have excellent products to take to market, showing exactly what the finished article will look like when it goes into full manufacture.”

“You guys had this design cube that was sort of like a Tetris block, and I was interested in plastics back in college, and so I took some courses and I got that design cube.”

“FarmBot is helping consumers produce and grow their own food. It is much more than knowing where your food originated. With our open-source technology, anyone who wants to contribute and help us build the future of farming has that opportunity.”

“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.”
