Können Sie Versionsnummern ins Teil drucken?

Ja, wenn sie im CAD als Gravur oder Prägung angelegt sind. Das hilft beim Vergleich enorm.

Wird jede Iteration einzeln berechnet?

Ja, nach Größe, Werkstoff und Menge. Kleine Änderungen kosten deshalb nur den Druck des geänderten Teils.

Wie schnell kommt die nächste Version?

Einfache Teile in 2 bis 4 Werktagen nach Dateieingang.

Wie bekomme ich einen Preis?

Laden Sie Ihre STEP- oder STL-Datei im Sofortangebot hoch. Sie sehen den Preis direkt, und wir prüfen die Datei vor der Fertigung auf Probleme.

Welche Angaben werden für Prototyp-Iterationen benötigt?

Senden Sie möglichst eine STEP-Datei sowie Stückzahl, Einsatztemperatur, Belastung, Umgebungsbedingungen und kritische Maße. Damit lassen sich Werkstoff, Orientierung, Fertigungsstrategie und Prüfaufwand passend zum Bauteil festlegen.

More iterations, earlier sign-off

The first prototype is rarely the last. The faster a loop of printing, testing and changing runs, the more you learn before sign-off. We print variants in parallel so you can compare directly.

Request variants Ask for advice

Samples in 2 to 4 working days

How teams use iterations

From rough concept to approved part.

Variant comparison

Print and test three geometries at once.

Ergonomics

Check grips and controls in the hand.

Step-by-step refinement

First form, then fit, then material.

Customer feedback

New version after each meeting.

Suitable materials

Early iterations in PLA or PETG, the final loops in the later production material.

How iterations stay efficient

01One clear question per loop that the test should answer.
02Version number in the filename or on the part.
03Only reprint the parts that changed.
04Change material only once geometry is right.

Full DFM checklist

Variants in parallel, not in series

Many teams print one version, test, change and print the next. Each loop then costs several days. Ordering three variants at once saves two of those loops.

This is especially useful for fits, wall thicknesses or clip geometries, where the right size only shows in testing.

Iteration FAQ

Can you print version numbers onto the part?

Yes, if they are modelled as engraving or embossing in CAD. It helps a lot when comparing.

Is every iteration priced separately?

Yes, by size, material and quantity. Small changes therefore only cost printing the changed part.

How fast does the next version arrive?

Simple parts in 2 to 4 working days after file receipt.

How do I get a price?

Upload your STEP or STL file in the instant quote. You see the price immediately, and we check the file for problems before production.

Which information is needed for Prototype iterations?

Send a STEP file where possible, together with quantity, operating temperature, load, environmental conditions and critical dimensions. This lets us define material, orientation, production strategy and inspection effort for the part.
