163 Protolabs Testimonials

“We have been very happy with the switch to a liquid silicone rubber part. The light transmission is excellent, the visibility of the indicator to the user is excellent, and we have not had any durability issues since the change.”

“Responding to a growing market need for energy efficiency and flexibility meant acting swiftly. We needed a prototype and injection moulding partner that could help us get the product to market as quickly as possible and having worked with Protolabs on several projects, we were able to design the solution to meet the short development time expectations.”

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

"Dentists were already using wedges in other procedures, but they were usually made of wood. We couldn’t use wood since it would absorb the materials used in the treatment after tooth separation, so we started the development of an appropriate plastic wedge."

“Protolabs are good on speed. Every time, it was there on the day they promised, so I was happy – the fewer people I have to chase, the easier it makes my life. It just means I can just get on with my job.”

“Protolabs is a tremendous ally because they enable us to develop and iterate at a much higher speed. Sometimes, we use Protolabs as the manufacturer for a given component for the lifetime of the project because they are so great to work with.”

“They look good and there is no warping or cracking on the plastic part. We are definitely going to need more, so Protolabs can expect another order shortly.”

"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."

“The Protolabs experts were responsible for modifying the non-machinable parts. We received a revised DFM 24 hours after submitting our parts and we immediately accepted it. If we had to redesign our parts, we would have lost quite a few days”.

“Time was of the essence for this work. Patients need to receive their implant as quickly as possible. After we received the final information about dimensions, we started work on the construction and manufacture of the implant with Protolabs.”

“Everything I asked for, whether I had questions of your customer service people, or I was waiting on quotes, or waiting for parts, there was nothing slow about it. It was immediate. It was all about getting stuff done. I hate waiting.”

“Some of our employees have been with the company for more than 20 years and have therefore built up a wealth of knowledge. It goes without saying that this benefits us in the development of new devices."

“As part of our project, we thought it important for us to demonstrate new, cost effective, manufacturing methods that the rail industry can use to develop its competitive edge. Looking to the future, we can see 3D printing technology becoming increasingly prominent in train manufacturing, repairs and upgrades.”

"Being in an early prototyping stage, it was much easier to 3D print the complicated lug versus machine it. You get all of the features without having to do any additional design for manufacturability work."
