Automation prototypes include preliminary designs of robots or physical models of automation control systems. They are manufactured through rapid prototyping for testing, verifying concepts or showing them to potential customers, accelerating the process from design to market. On-demand manufacturing produces products according to demand and provides customized production solutions to meet personalized needs.
Brightstar relies on years of experience in prototyping and manufacturing in the field of automation, using advanced rapid prototyping technology and digital manufacturing processes to provide high-performance prototypes and components for the automation industry. Focusing on the automated production of industrial components, from simple automatic parts to complex automation facilities, Brightstar's experienced technical and quality control team is committed to providing ultimate solutions for a variety of automation equipment.
In the automation industry, prototyping is a key step in the product development process. It involves converting design concepts into physical models for testing, evaluation and iteration, verifying designs, and reducing development risks. Brightstar Rapid Prototyping, with 200+ metal and non-metal production-grade materials, provides fast and precise manufacturing services for the automation industry with professional and advanced equipment, including precision CNC machining services, complex structure 3D printing services, sheet metal parts manufacturing, small batch vacuum die-casting, and economical aluminum and copper rapid tooling and cost-effective injection molding services, as well as exquisite surface treatment services. In the manufacturing process of up to 17 years, it has provided customers with high-quality and precise prototypes for more than 10k+ projects.
As the design progresses, rapid prototyping helps engineers refine and optimize the product. By iterating the prototype and providing a clear visual representation, design defects can be discovered and resolved, and mechanical structure, electronic integration, and software control can be improved. Based on our expertise in prototype manufacturing and our understanding of the automation industry, we deeply understand engineers' requirements for products, and at the same time provide manufacturing suggestions and manufacture prototypes according to the determined plan.
Our prototypes, which simulate the final product, are used to conduct rigorous functional, engineering testing and durability evaluation. This includes testing the function and aesthetics of the automated product, endurance and response under simulated actual working conditions, optimizing the design through iterative prototyping and material selection, while ensuring manufacturing feasibility, thereby verifying quality during product life cycle testing, saving time and resources.
Before the product is ready for production, small batch rapid prototypes are used to determine the best manufacturing process and assembly process. At this stage, our prototypes help developers optimize production efficiency, reduce costs, and ensure production repeatability and manufacturability, simplifying your large-scale production design through our mass production capabilities and professional quality control.
Before the product is about to enter the market, rapid prototypes are used for final marketing and customer demonstrations. At the same time, the final iteration results of the prototype are used to guide the production of the first batch of products to ensure that the mass-produced products are consistent with the prototypes in quality and performance. We provide production-grade quality prototype components to quickly move your product from prototype to mass production.
Advanced equipment and processing technology, including DMG 5-axis linkage milling machine, which ensures the manufacturability of tightest tolerance up to +/-0.005mm, and 3D printing equipment to ensure the automation industry's requirements for rapid prototyping and part precision and complex processing.
Diverse selection of manufacturable materials, up to 200+ kinds of metal and non-metal
The company has passed ISO9001:2015 certification, and has advanced testing equipment and strict quality inspection processes, from raw material inspection to final finished product inspection, providing FAI and finished product inspection report FQC.
By optimizing the manufacturing process and effective cost management, we provide economical prices while ensuring quality, which can save you 30% of your costs.
