SERVICES | PROTOTYPING & SHORT-RUN
Prototyping & Short-Run Builds
Prototype and low-volume builds using the same equipment and processes we rely on for production.
Prototypes are built using production-intent processes to support smooth transition into repeat manufacturing
What This Process Is Built For
-
New part introductions
-
Engineering changes and revision trials
-
Low‑volume or seasonal components
-
Bridge builds before committing to high‑volume tooling
​
Prototypes and short-run builds are produced in our Ham Lake, Minnesota shop using production-intent processes.
What We Do
-
Cut, machine, form, and weld prototype parts and short‑run assemblies
-
Use the same machines and workflows we use for production
-
Keep programs and setups organized so successful prototypes can move into repeat production with minimal changes
​
Prototypes are built using the same CNC machining and welding and fabrication processes we rely on for production services, allowing successful parts to transition smoothly into repeat runs.
