Common use cases

Prototyping applications

R&D, ergonomic validation, mechanical testing and investor demos.

R&D validation

Assembly, clearance and component compatibility tests.

Commercial demo

High-finish SLA mockups for trade shows and pitches.

Field testing

Nylon/PC prototypes resistant to impact, UV and temperature.

Pilot pre-series

Small batches before full industrialization.

Prototype tooling

Jigs and fixtures for assembly trials.

Process

From file to tested prototype

Short cycle to validate form, function and manufacturability.

01

01 / 04

File analysis

CAD review, wall thickness, orientation and process choice.

We deliver to startups, R&D labs and SMEs in Sophia-Antipolis, Nice, Cannes and Monaco — visual, functional or pre-series prototypes.

Process

Choosing the right process

Each prototype is sized to the test objective.

FDM

Robust parts, large sizes, controlled cost.

SLA

Fine detail, smooth surface, aesthetic validation.

CNC

Tight tolerances, final materials, mechanical testing.

Hybrid

3D + machining combination to optimize lead time and cost.

Quality

Systematic inspection

Measurements, photos and report before shipping.

Dimensioning

Critical dimension check vs CAD.

Appearance

Visual defect and finish inspection.

Traceability

File version, material and parameters archived.

Packaging

Protection suited to local or national delivery.

Our French workshop

Design and manufacture under one roof

A real workshop on the French Riviera: professional machines, quality control, short lead times. From one-offs to small series — Made in France, delivered across the 06 and nationwide.

24 Avenue de la Verte Pagane, 06600 Antibes

Pro machine park

FDM/SLA 3D printing, laser, CNC, electronics: technical means under one roof to move from study to manufacturing.

Quality checked

Every part is verified before shipping. Technical materials selected for real-world use (UV, mechanical, outdoor, marine).

Responsive lead times

Quote within 24h, production often in 24–48h. Rush jobs possible depending on workshop load.

Delivery & installation

Express delivery with optional installation in the Alpes-Maritimes, home or pickup point nationwide — quayside delivery for yachting.
