Prototype Development
From prototype to final product
The path to a successful product begins with a proper prototype. At Printy, we offer a complete prototype development service – from concept design, selection of optimal materials, to precise 3D printing and final finishing. Quickly, flexibly, and professionally, we guide you from your initial idea to a tangible product, ready for testing or presentation using industrial FDM and SLA 3D printing – fast turnaround, technical accuracy, and expert support.
We take care of everything – from modeling and consulting to the final product and shipping.
Why develop a prototype using 3D printing?
Fast idea testing
Check the shape, functionality, and ergonomics.
Reduced development costs
No need for expensive tools or molds.
Quick adaptation to changes
Model adjustments without high costs.
Better impression for investors
A physical prototype is more convincing than a concept on paper.
How does prototype development work?
1
Idea or sketch
→ Send us a description, a drawing, or a 3D model.
2
Consultation and optimization
→ Together we select the most suitable materials and technology.
3
Prototype production
→ We use FDM or SLA 3D printing for optimal results.
4
Additional finishing
→ If needed, we sand, paint, or assemble more complex models.
Who most often needs a prototype?
🧪 Startup companies – development of MVPs (Minimal Viable Product)
🏭 Industrial engineers – functional and mechanical prototypes.
🎨 Designers and innovators – design and ergonomics validation.
🔬 Research institutes – fast functional models for testing.
Technical capabilities in prototype production
🔹 FDM printing – fast, robust, suitable for functional tests.
🔹 SLA printing – high precision for visual and aesthetic models.
🔹 Materials – PLA, PETG, ABS, Resin, depending on the purpose of the prototype.
🔹 Additional services – sanding, painting, assembly, UV protection.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The average production time is 2–5 business days, depending on the complexity and selected materials.
Yes. We often produce several different variants to make concept validation easier.
Of course. Our team can assist with optimizing or preparing the model for 3D printing.
What companies say about us?
For the creation of a presentation model of a larger residential complex, we turned to Printy. Despite the rather complex design of the buildings with details at a 1:100 scale, they proved to be extremely precise and responsive. The model was delivered on time and exceeded expectations. I highly recommend them to all architects who need a physical presentation of their ideas.
– Tadeja V., architect and project manager
We have been working with Printy for more than a year. Always responsive, fast, and high-quality. Their SLA printing is indispensable for us.
– Marko K., head of development
We had an issue with a worn mechanical part on one of our older machines, which could no longer be supplied by the manufacturer. The replacement part would have had to be ordered from abroad, with a several-week lead time and a high cost. Based on our drawing, Printy produced an identical part within a few days with exceptional accuracy. The machine was back in operation the very next day — saving us concrete costs and delays.
