Digital prototyping

Digital prototyping allows developers, designers, planners, and manufacturers to review and thoroughly examine a product before embarking on a mass production process.

Why is this needed?

Today, one of the most common methods of increasing the competitiveness of an enterprise, developing and modernizing the production process is digital prototyping or digital prototyping technology.

The modern production process is characterized by a rapid pace of development, improvement of equipment and microprocessor technology, the introduction of innovations and the use of advanced technologies. One such technology is digital prototyping technology.

Digital prototyping allows developers, designers, planners, and manufacturers to review and thoroughly examine a product before embarking on a mass production process.

This technology makes it possible to create a project, test it, make the necessary adjustments and manage the project from the moment of developing its idea to the production process. At the same time, there is no need to create expensive prototypes of products in order to test and test the product.

What is a digital prototype?

Digital prototypes – product or product models, digital mock-ups, in real scale or a reduced copy, used as a prototype for testing a future product and testing its functionality and form.

In the process of modernization and improvement of design data, mechanical and conceptual information about the product, 3d digital prototypes acquire an ideal shape and appearance. Digital prototyping is more relevant than ever if it is expensive or impractical to produce a sample of a product, or if it is impossible to create a sample.

Goals of digital prototyping

Ready-made 3D digital prototypes can be used as a virtual product model used to test the finished product.

Digital prototyping technology and its limitless capabilities help reduce manufacturing costs and eliminate the need to develop a prototype product, as digital prototyping and validation is carried out entirely in virtual mode. In addition, digital prototyping technologies can speed up the process of transferring products to the stage of direct production of products.

In addition, the creation of digital prototypes makes it possible to show customers, partners, potential buyers and investors a model of a product, and to present a new product profitably. Thus, digital prototypes can save not only financial resources, but also time costs, which will be another advantage over competitors.

Application of digital prototyping

The use of digital prototyping technologies allows you to solve the following tasks:

  1. The use of digital prototyping technologies allows you to solve the following tasks:
  2. Increasing the level of competitiveness of the enterprise;
  3. Accelerated implementation of innovations and innovative projects in the company’s activities;
  4. Reducing the time spent on the design and production cycle;
  5. Development of a high-quality product in a short time;
  6. Functionality testing, product performance testing, etc.

Digital prototyping can be done using the following software products:

– Autodesk Inventor;
– Autodesk Alias Design;
– Autodesk AutoCAD Mechanical;
– Autodesk AutoCAD Electrical;
– Autodesk Showcas;
– Autodesk 3dsMax Design, etc.

3D digital prototypes are created using 3D modeling and 3D printing technologies.

To implement 3d printing , using various materials in the following ways:

laser printing (laser sintering of powders);
layer-by-layer material build-up , plastic polymerization.

Where to order digital prototyping?

The KLONA company has gathered the best specialists in the field industrial design , digital prototyping and 3d technologies. We will help you create a 3D model of any complexity, create a prototype of the product and print it on a 3D printer.

If you already have a ready-made 3D model of the product, you can send it by e-mail to our specialists, so we can check the functionality of the model, help you adjust it to an ideal look and create a trial model of the product.

CLONE company can bring to life any of your inventive idea, even if it seems completely “unreal” to you. We will not only support your startup, but together with you we will develop it, we will establish your small-scale production. Order services 3d modeling and printing with you is profitable, we will be with you, starting from the stage of building a 3D model, and ending with the manufacture of a finished prototype.
