What is Prototype Machining?
Prototype machining is a manufacturing process used to create samples or prototypes of a product. It typically uses computer-aided design (CAD) software and computer numerical control (CNC) machines to precisely cut and shape materials, creating models that resemble the final product. These prototypes can be used to test product design and performance, and to make necessary modifications and improvements. Prototype machining is widely used in industries such as rapid manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, medical devices, and consumer goods.
