Prototyping

With comprehensive in-house design, tooling, and manufacturing capabilities and compelling co-engineering experience, Laird Performance Materials completes concepting, designing, and prototyping on time and on budget.

Laird’s distinct advantages are broad. And proven.

  • Rapid prototyping and global reputation for on-time delivery
  • Renowned flexibility
  • Application of leading software tools including PTC Creo, AutoCAD, and Solidworks
  • In-house tooling designers and tool room allow for quicker turnaround time on prototypes
  • High precision tolerances of wire EDM

Our people, processes, and technologies at Laird’s global prototyping sites have helped those locations (many ISO and IATF 16949 Certified) earn a reputation as true centers of excellence.

In the metals sector, we create solutions helping enable and protect electronics using precision thin gauge metal parts which are smaller, thinner, lower height, and lighter. For example, when a battery contact for automotive applications must have “flexing” requirements to withstand constant shock, design engineers regularly look to Laird for the exact end-to-end solution. You’re invited to learn about this and similar challenges – all of which we’ve resolved.

5 reasons to tap Laird’s prototyping expertise.

  • Speed of development. We’re skilled at delivering rapid prototypes in days globally
  • Reliability and performance. Predictive modeling capabilities readily available such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA), EMI modeling, and deep drawn simulations, along with accurate predictions of product lifetimes
  • Low-cost designs. We make prototyping simpler for you and keep costs low
  • Talented team. We employ experts with hundreds of years of combined experience
  • Huge capital resources. Superior technologies to prototype and manufacture multi-functional protective solutions for electronic components. It’s the way forward.

We deliver. End to end.

Laird prototyping will help you achieve the optimum structural and EMI solutions to enable and ensure efficient product packaging and manufacturability. Contact our prototype experts in North America, in China or Asia, or Europe-Middle East-Africa.
