Shakopee, Minnesota: Protofastparts.com(TM) is a new service targeting design firms, OEM's and engineers needing prototype custom rubber parts for accelerated time-to-market projects.
From print to part in 10 days, designers can evaluate and test various rubber formulations simultaneously.

Complete in-house elastomer testing facilities and formulation monitoring systems are available to assure materials meet customer quality requirements. These can include specific medical device and other industry specific performance requirements including contamination, UV and chemical resistance, plus other features such as insulation, bonding and sealing.
