Prototype injection moldingEfficient, fast and cost-saving

Prototype injection molding at Solidtec is ideal for small quantities. The advantages of prototype construction: a simplified process, greater efficiency and significant time and cost savings.

Often, only small quantities of a plastic part are initially required. However, producing these by injection molding requires a great deal of time and money. This is why Solidtec offers its customers the production of prototype plastic parts using rapid tooling. As early as the design stage, the injection molds are specifically designed for small part quantities.

The special thing about our processes: True to the motto "less is more", we have integrated many series production functions into the modular Solidtec master mold system with cooling and the ejector system. In terms of prototype injection molding, this means simpler tool inserts and greater efficiency in the production of your plastic parts as prototypes.

Further advantages of this solution: different sprue positions can be tested with comparatively little effort. This makes it possible to work out the optimum filling situation for the cavity - quickly, reliably and cost-effectively.

Your advantages with prototype injection molding at SOlidtec

Development partner from plastic prototype to series production

At Solidtec, we see ourselves not only as a manufacturer, but also as your development partner. We support you from the initial idea through to series production. Once the first prototype plastic parts have been produced, we are at your side with our expertise to further optimize processes - regardless of whether it is a question of functionality, appearance or the filling situation of the cavity.

We are happy to pass on our knowledge to you: through our knowledge transfer, we create the basis for efficient and smooth series production. At Solidtec, you also have the opportunity to be present live on site during sampling. This means that adjustments can be implemented directly and the results checked immediately.

A particular advantage of producing plastic prototypes using the rapid tooling process: Changes can be made to the aluminum tool with manageable effort. This enables flexible and cost-efficient adaptation - an important advantage that steel tools cannot offer.

Prototype construction: advantages at a glance

That's why prototype injection molding at Solidtec is the ideal choice for prototypes, functional models and view specimens of your plastic parts:

  • Holistic development partnership: we accompany you from the idea to production as a small or large series - including advice and knowledge transfer.
  • Optimization options: Adjustments to the aluminum tool can be implemented quickly and efficiently.
  • Efficient rapid tooling: Simplified tool inserts for greater efficiency and lower costs.
  • Live sampling on site: Be there during sampling and experience the process in real time.
  • Cost-saving process: Ideal for small quantities with short development times.
  • High flexibility: Different sprue positions and adjustments to the design of your plastic part can be easily implemented.

Would you like to have plastic prototypes produced? Alternatively, rapid prototyping with additive manufacturing may be a suitable choice for prototype construction.


Do you want to produce a small series from your plastic prototypes? Our small-series injection molding is suitable for quantities of up to 100,000 units.



Frequently asked questions about prototype injection molding

What is prototype injection molding?

Prototype injection molding is a method used in plastic injection molding to quickly and efficiently produce a plastic part as a prototype in original materials. This allows you to test your products realistically before they go into series production.

What projects is prototype injection molding suitable for?

Plastic prototypes are ideal for functional tests, design studies or presentations. With our prototype construction, we can supply you with exactly the plastic parts you need.

What materials can be used for plastic prototypes?

We process a wide range of thermoplastics to offer you the best solution for your prototype plastic parts. You can find all the options in our material list.

How quickly can the prototypes be delivered?

Thanks to our optimized processes and fast coordination, we often deliver your plastic prototypes within a few days. We can react flexibly to time-critical orders.

How individually can prototypes be produced?

At Solidtec, every solution is unique. Whether complex geometries, special material requirements or tight schedules - we implement your wishes and requirements for plastic parts.

Does Solidtec also provide advice on prototype construction?

Yes, we are at your side as a development partner - from planning to series production of your injection molded parts. You can be present during the sampling process and make adjustments and optimizations together with us after the plastic prototype has been produced.
