Protolabs Expands CNC Machining Offer Through Its Global Digital Manufacturing Partner Network
Volume Pricing, Precision Tolerances, Enhanced Finishes, and Other Machining Capabilities Now Available for Product Developers and Production Buyers
“Constant innovation is at the forefront of everything we do,” said
Users can upload a 3D CAD model for machining on protolabs.com to access the expanded options inside Protolabs’ online quoting platform, which are then fulfilled by Protolabs’ digital factories or one of its digitally enabled manufacturing partners. All of the advanced machining capabilities are now live and available to customers.
With volume pricing options, customers will be able to lower their overall piece-part price as quantity increases—up to thousands of machined parts. Tighter tolerances down to ±0.0008 in. (0.020mm) are now achievable as are complete parts with all features milled, holes tapped, and post-process finishing applied. Regarding finishing options, plating (black oxide, nickel), anodizing (Type II, Type III), and chromate coating in larger quantities are available. And parts as large as 40 in. (1,000mm) to as small as 0.02 in. (0.5mm) are supported.
“This is a step change in what we can offer customers at Protolabs,” said
