of mould machines and associated ancillaries is one

of the most well specified in the UK. With an average

machine age of less than 4 years and the majority

of machines fitted with 5 axis CNC robots we have

a significant manufacturing advantage over the

majority of UK moulders.

products like polystyrenes through to advanced

engineering grades such as PEEK and PEI. Robot arm loading

Design & DevelopmentProtomould offer full product design and development services.

We can assist in both initial design work as well as concept refinement.

Unlike conventional design houses our service is derived from

manufacturing best practice rather than blue-sky thinking our designs

satisfy the requirements of our customers intent whilst conforming

to the practicalities of manufacturability!

Functional Prototype ServiceOne of the main drawbacks of rapid prototypes is that they rarely reflect

the actual performance of real products. Unlike SLS/SLA prototypes our

service uses machined cast plastics (offering about 80% of the properties

of a moulded component) and in the case of resin and aluminium tooling

the actual polymer intended for the final product.

We are able to offer machined prototypes in 7-10 days and injection moulded

parts from resin tooling in 14-21 days.
