CNC
When a prototype demands production material properties, Computer Numerically Controlled machining (CNC machining) is the best form of prototyping available. CNC machining, also known as subtractive machining, takes a solid piece of material and cuts away all unneeded material to produce the part. The prototype is designed in a 3D modeling program, which is then transferred to a CNC machine that completes the part. With a wide array of materials CNC can cut, this type of prototyping is ideal for functional testing as well as fit & form testing.

Injection Molding
Injection molding is the best solution to create production ready prototype when time is not as critical. Since this type of prototyping is so close to the final product, it can be used to show your new product before production.

Conventional Machining
When cost is your main concern, this type of prototyping is highly effective, without the use of CNC (Computer Numerically Controlled) machines. There are certain instances where other Rapid Prototyping methods can be overkill. Blue Dolphin is a full service conventional machine shop; we implement more traditional prototyping methods with the same acute accuracy and commitment to speed of production.
