“Protolabs has a really nice interface that’s easy for uploading different parts and seeing prices on the screen, and we can get them really fast."

"It all worked very well and now that there is a tool, it's just for us to order more if and when needed."

“On parts where aesthetics are very important, it is easy to end up with deviations in colour or texture as a consequence of abrupt material acceleration."

“I needed something high-quality that I could demonstrate, and Protolabs came to the rescue. They are reasonable in their prices and the quality is excellent.”

“There are ways to convert sunlight into electricity with a regular solar panel. And there are obviously ways to create heat from sunlight with a black panel. But to do both simultaneously and to do both well simultaneously is where this technology really shines.”

“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 …

“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.”

“We really appreciate how Protolabs caught that quality concern early on. Sometimes we never hear feedback from a producer. If we reject parts, they have to approve the rejection, and the process can drag on for many weeks.”

"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."

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

“The biggest deal for me was getting these parts done so quickly because I only had three months to design and build and test this very complex machine.”

“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.”

“Protolabs was the only company that could produce such thin features in the plastic parts we needed in those early Alpha and Beta testing stages. In addition, we were in a time crunch, so speed was a factor, something Protolabs could also handle. These are key factors for an early …

“Once we put the prototypes together, we could test to make sure the fasteners were feeding correctly, and if the sliding action of the plunger was operating smoothly without jamming. If there were any problems, we would modify the part and have another one machined. Once everything was working, we …

"Thanks to Protolabs rapid machining, we can go from the drawing stage to reality in only a matter of days."
