Vantagens

Objetivo do teste

Define the decision the prototype will support.

Correspondência de material

Specify the intended alloy or identify an approved substitute.

Feature Focus

Mark the dimensions and interfaces being evaluated.

Production Handoff

Record changes and acceptance needs for a later run.

Start with the decision the prototype must support

A metal prototype may be used for fit, assembly, form or a defined functional evaluation. The material, finish and inspection should match the question the sample is meant to answer. If the prototype uses substitute stock or omits a finishing step, document that difference before interpreting test results.

Prepare a metal prototype request

  • Specify alloy and condition, current CAD and drawing revision, and quantity.
  • State whether the sample is for fit, assembly, appearance or functional testing.
  • Mark the interfaces and dimensions that will be evaluated.
  • Liste o acabamento, as operações secundárias e os registros de inspeção.
  • Identify which requirements may change after prototype feedback.

A prototype is not automatically production-qualified. Record approved design changes and define the acceptance plan for any repeat order. We review the actual part and test purpose before confirming a quote.

Perguntas Frequentes

What should a metal prototype be used to validate?

+

Define whether it checks fit, assembly, appearance or a functional requirement and list the features that will be evaluated.

Can a prototype made from a substitute metal prove production performance?

+

Not automatically. Material, condition, finish and test conditions should match the conclusion you need to draw.

What is needed for a metal prototype quote?

+

Provide the alloy, current model and drawing, quantity, critical dimensions, finish and intended evaluation.
