Avoid price increases for production plastic machining orders and fast plastic prototypes by placing 2012 orders now!!
The largest factors in dictating price for machined plastic parts are plastic materials costs and total machining time.  The primary point of attack in minimizing plastic machined part cost is to minimize material cost.
Since 2009, we have witnessed substantial [...]

What design considerations are necessary when purchasing plastic prototypes with full function?
In order to get to market fast, plastic prototypes should be fully functional. Plastic prototypes with full function of course offer the same tight tolerances and high precision as do plastic machined components, as they are one in the same. Simply fast, fully [...]

Guidelines For Selecting The Perfect Plastic Machining Vendor For Plastic Prototypes
When selecting the right vendor for plastic prototypes, the process is similar to selecting the right plastic machining production vendor.  However, a greater emphasis on speed while maintaining the same quality of a production plastic machined component.  Of course, a great advantage is present for [...]

When in need of plastic machined components, how should one decide whether place a fast plastic prototypes or production plastic machining order?
