Prototyping & part production
Full-scale functional prototypes and end-use parts – proving form, fit and function at real size, in days.
Overview
Why it matters
When a part is a metre long, a desktop print of a scale model proves nothing. LFAM lets you hold the real thing – test it, fit it, break it, and iterate before committing to production tooling.
Capabilities
What we deliver
01
Full-scale prototypes
1:1 prototypes for fit checks, ergonomic studies and stakeholder sign-off at true size.
02
Functional test parts
Fibre-reinforced parts strong enough for load, rig and field testing – not just looking at.
03
End-use production parts
Low-volume production of enclosures, ducts, housings, panels and structural elements.
04
Casting patterns
Patterns for sand casting and investment processes, including automotive development programmes.
05
Design for LFAM support
We adapt your geometry for printability – wall strategy, ribs, infill and orientation.
06
Finishing options
Machining, bonding, sealing, priming and painting to your specification.
How it works
From enquiry to delivery
STEP 01
Brief & CAD
Tell us what the part must do – loads, environment, interfaces and finish.
STEP 02
DfAM optimisation
We engineer the print strategy and quote time and cost transparently.
STEP 03
Print & finish
Printed at metre scale, then machined and finished as required.
STEP 04
Test & iterate
You test; we revise. Iterations cost days, not months.
