Do you need to manufacture prototypes or models efficiently in your company? Having a CNC milling machine for this purpose will allow you to bring together 4 essential factors: ease, quality, speed and savings.
In this article we will tell you about all these benefits, about a successful case of a company that uses a Pérez Camps CNC milling machine to create its prototypes and we will introduce you to our leasing service, which is very interesting if you do not want to/cannot purchase the machine as your own property.
Making a production part or prototype in plastic injection moulding is much more expensive and time-consuming because we have to make a mould and if the part doesn't turn out well, a lot of money will have been invested for nothing.
On the other hand, with the milling cnc machine we can make a single part in less time and at a lower cost.
Moreover, we can work on 2D and 3D planes with the 3 axes. The advantage of being able to make prototypes with the milling machine is that it allows us to work with wood or other types of materials such as high density resins. 3D printers have taken a lot of advantage nowadays with respect to plastic parts for prototypes, although it is not yet possible to work with wood or resins with this equipment.
Look at these images of prototypes made with Pérez Camps milling machines. They are a piece in piece in high density resin and a guitar, composed of two MDF (DM) boards:
If you are worried about not knowing how how to program the prototypes in the milling machine , you should know that Pérez Camps offers you the necessary training to learn how to do it once you have acquired the machine. One of our mottos is: we don't sell machines, we sell solutions. That is why we will accompany you throughout the after-sales process so that you know all the details of the milling machine and can make the most of it in your company.
Galopín Parques has been a customer of Pérez Camps for many years. It acquired a CNC milling machine to make prototypes and initial parts for parks. They have worked successfully with materials such as polyethylene, plywood, MDF and HPL.
Some of the work they have done with the CNC milling machine has been on wood of different characteristics, with 3D volume. In the photos below you can see the machining of a scallop shell on a laminated pine board and the machining of a double-sided owl on robinia hardwood.
If you do not have the necessary resources to buy a CNC milling machine or if you want to try out the results you obtain with it for a period of time, we encourage you to contact us to find out about our leasing system.
As it is a rental, the VAT on the instalments is deductible as an expense and, on the other hand, it does not generate accounting debt because it is a rental and you have not taken out a loan.
To give you an idea of our prices, here is an example of renting a TEC-CAM Motion CNC milling machinewith a 1,300 x 2,500 mm "turnkey" table:
to be paid in 48 instalments: 665€ / month + VAT *.
to be paid in 60 instalments: €545 / month + VAT * *conditional on risk analysis.
*conditional on the risk analysis of the financier
Whether you need to manufacture prototypes or for any other CNC machining requirement, trust Perez Camps milling machines.
