Prototyping Made Easy
In today’s economic climate, it is becoming increasingly important for businesses to be able to get their latest inventions and editions to market at a greater speed; to get market feedback initially and all going well to gain interest at a level which generates sales in the future.
With many UK subcontractors collapsing over the last decade; faced with greater offshore competition and the impact of globalisation, it has become increasingly difficult to find quality sources for prototyping in the UK & Ireland.
Those companies that are lucky enough to still have quality sources will struggle to find a contractor that can handle their whole mix of prototyping work, at the costs that they need and within the timeframe required.
Adding to that, there are very few prototyping houses left in the UK that are able to be manufacturing partners when the product reaches market and the volumes start to expand.
The Mekall Prototyping centre was setup in 2008 to allow companies in Europe to benefit from a one-stop-shop facility for prototyping (whether it be CNC Milling, Finishing, Screen Printing etc) whilst offering a partner that could also be there for them when the product reaches higher volumes..
The prototyping centre also benefits from a team of Industrial Product Designers; who aid the customer-supplier development relationship by offering services like DFMA (Design for Manufacture & Assembly), Cost Reduction Principles, Product Visulisation Animations & Fly- Bys.
