3D Printing Service, 3D Rapid Prototyping

ProtoCAM is a leading provider of 3D printing services using Polyjet 3D printing.

Currently there is much discussion about the terminology used to refer to the processes and technologies of creating 3D parts and 3D prototypes from three dimensional digital data such as 3D CAD drawings. When customers call ProtoCAM they ask for many services using a variety of different names. ProtoCAM engineers hear customer requests like:

• “Can you 3D print my part?”
• “Can you make an SLA prototype?”
• “Can you make my part from this CAD drawing?”
• “Can you print my part?”

No matter what you call it, ProtoCAM can do it!

The Shift from Rapid Prototyping to 3D Printing

Rapid prototyping in its early days in the 1990s was typically the realm of product designers and engineers who were mostly using the services of rapid prototyping companies offering stereolithography apparatus (SLA) machines or fused deposition modeling. These rapid prototypes were used to test form, fit and function in new ways. Next came another rapid prototyping technology, selective laser sintering, another additive process.

3D printing is the latest additive rapid prototyping technology now in use. 3D printing printing is a relatively inexpensive rapid prototyping technology and is well-suited for parts with extremely fine detail that is not easily captured using other rapid prototyping techniques. ProtoCAM offers 3D printing with PolyJet 3D Printers.

3D printing is now much more mainstream and more well known to the general public, having been featured in TV shows like Discovery Channel’s Prototype This and Jay Leno’s Garage. While rapid prototyping for product design and development is still the majority of the work ProtoCAM does, additive manufacturing or rapid manufacturing of low volume, production-ready parts is gaining prominence.

By whatever name for the technology or process, ProtoCAM is ready and willing to serve customers for with 3D printing services.
