Reverse engineering is to obtain the point cloud data of the physical model by using the three-dimensional digital scanning of the existing physical model in the case that the design drawings are incomplete or even without the design drawings or CAD models, and the point cloud data is calculated and used. Processing is done to form a digital model for product redesign and CNC machining. A reverse engineering process includes two steps: the first step is to scan the physical model and the second step is to creat a three-dimensional model.
The vacuum casting technology which uses prototype (SLA laser rapid prototyping piece, CNC products) to make silicone mold under vacuum, and is poured under vacuum conditions, such as PU, ABS, etc. Vacuum casting is also used to clone the prototype or copy the piece. It has different types including vacuum mould casting, vacuum pressure casting, vacuum sand casting and so on. This method is especially suitable for small batch production. It is a low-cost solution to solve experimental production and small batch production in a short time, and can also meet the functional test proofing of some structurally complicated engineering samples.
Sheet metal processing or sheet metal fabrication includes: folding, shearing, punching, welding, riveting, splicing and other processes. In general, the process of forming a sheet by hand or mechanical is called sheet metal processing. Sheet metal processing is to cut and bend metal materials into various shapes and their thicknesses can vary significantly. According to the materials, sheet metal fabrication can be divided into several types, including aluminum sheet metal fabrication, stainless steel fabrication and brass fabrication.

3D printing technology is a collective term for a series of rapid prototyping technologies, the basic principle of which is laminated manufacturing. 3d printing service providers will use a computer-aided design model to produce a three-dimensional object. 3D printing service includes 3d design and printing services, 3d laser printing services, 3d model printing services, 3d plastic printing services, 3d prototyping service or 3d rapid prototyping services, etc. SLA printing service and SLS printing service are two common types of 3d model printing services.
Low volume manufacturing is a transitional link from small trials to pilot tests to industrial production. Prior to mass production, all formal production tooling, processes, equipment, environments, facilities, and cycles of small batch trial production are scheduled to produce appropriate small batch quantities to verify product design plausibility and manufacture ability. We are professional China printer plastic shell mold manufacturing factory and we have the world's leading SLA 3D printing, CNC machining, vacuum molding, low pressure infusion and other technologies. We also provide one-stop low volume manufacturing service from product design to prototype verification, rapid mold manufacturing to small batch production.
Industrial design, shorted as ID, is also known as industrial product design. It is the product of industrialized society in the early 20th century. With rapid industrial design and product development, it is used by millions of people globally everyday. Generally, it refers to the design of industrial products based on engineering, aesthetics and economics. Industrial design not only focuses on the appearance of a product, but also on its function.
Compared to Vacuum Casting and 3D printing two methods of manufacturing, a wide range of materials are avaliable in CNC Machining. For example, plastic, metal and sheet metal, etc. Why can CNC machine tools effectively process different materials? Because these machines can handle different operations, such as CNC milling, CNC grinding, CNC turning, CNC welding, end positioning, drilling and winding, to form the final parts you need.
Also called up milling. It is a traditional milling method, the principle of which is to rotate the tool in the opposite direction of the workpiece, so as to produce upward cutting force. In this cutting process, when the tool engages, it is forced to confront the working parts, creating relatively high friction, and thus generating more heat. Milling up, on the other hand, is the opposite of milling down. As the cutter begins to subtract the smallest material, it gradually cuts the largest material because it rotates.
In today’s product design and development set-up, pictures, and models are not enough to communicate the design specifications of a product. There are hundreds of details about how a product will look and work. The good news is there are different types of rapid prototyping approach designers can choose from to create mockups.
