Prototyping
Benefits of a prototype....

We have all the equipment need to produce a finished tool but also a prototype product / parts. Prototypes can be used for testing, marketing, sales, making patenting easier, help determine the final manufacturing process, help determine the right retail price, prior to the initial production run.

HMT will produce a fully functioning prototype, produced quickly and cost effectively by our highly experienced team of engineers utilising comprehensive CNC, rapid prototyping and assembly facilities as required.

Here's How HMT Can Meet Your Prototyping Requirements

We have all the equipment needed to produce not only a prototype but a finished tool in house and in most instances, to manufacture the item it is designed to make.

A protoype makes testing and proving quick, straightforward and consequentially, cost effective. Prototype tools can be made from hardened Steel, P20 or Aluminium.

Parts for prototyping can be kept cost effective by using our multi-bolster system. Using this system we only make the inserts, not the bolster. This is a huge saving in time and costs. These inserts can be easily modified until the part or design is correct.

  Then a few or thousands of prototype parts can be produced whilst the production tooling is manufactured (if required). We can easily conduct test runs to ensure the mould functions in the most practical, time and cost efficient manner.

 We also have a universal Hot Runner System and powerful flow analysis software which allows us to fine tune the Design and Production process to maintain accuracy at all times. This helps us to ensure that the resulting component is of the best possible quality. In this way, we can make you a finished component in the correct material to show to backers or potential customers in days rather than weeks.

  Our customers find this better than having a (single) model made or stero-lithographic part, as many parts can be re-run at any time. Different materials can also be used to determine which is best.
