Expertise in prototyping and low-volume manufacturing

Over the years, Protolis has become a trusted partner for prototyping and low-volume production of quality parts and assembly projects across various sectors. We understand the challenges of transitioning from prototyping to series production and are skilled in guiding our clients through the decisions that ensure the scalability of a product.

Prototyping

Prototyping or rapid prototyping describes the process of manufacturing, in the shortest time possible, a model with the maximum possible accuracy and with the intention to validate different aspects: visual, mechanical, functional, fitment and assembly, and more.

Low-volume production

Low-volume production describes the process of manufacturing quality parts up to a few thousands, with stable repeat accuracy. Usually, these parts require less design optimization compared to series production parts and need to be produced quickly.

Hear from our customers

Everything arrive on time and the finish is beautiful! The feel is as desired, soft and matte, appearance is neat, the fitting of inserts is good and the details have been respected, all in record time. Thank You!

Cofounder – Elwing

Protolis has done an excellent job for my design studio. I was very satisfied with the finish of the complex parts made for my lamp prototypes. The compliance with my 3D models and the quality of finish are very professional. Fast delivery and very good protection.

Thomas Durantel

Director – Thomas Durantel Design

We received the parts within 10 days, which is very much appreciated. On receiving them, we were very surprised by the high-quality appearance. In fact, the part looked exactly like an injected part. These have also been sold in our pre-series.
