LBC Product Design can help you through the development, design and documentation of your new products. We can help you turn a concept into a preliminary design that can be rapid- prototyped. Whether you need SLA's, Cast Urethanes, FDM, Machined or Sheet Metal Prototypes we can lead you the way. Whether you need assistance or you just need to be pointed in the right direction. We are here to help you through some of the decision making. This can range from small to high volume plastic components to multi part assemblies. Below is a list of material that are used in the Rapid Prototyping or 3D printing. First here's how 3D printing works.
3D printing, also known as Stereo lithography or SLA, is a method of converting a virtual 3D model into a physical object. Typically it works by printing successive layers on top of the previous layer to build up a three dimensional object. 3D printers are generally faster, more affordable and easier to use than other additive fabrications.

FDM = Fused deposition modeling, which is often referred to by its initials FDM, is a type of rapid prototyping or rapid manufacturing (RP) technology commonly used within engineering design. Read more (this link will take you to Wikipedia.com)
ABS= Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, or ABS is a common thermoplastic used to make light, rigid, molded products such as piping, musical instruments (most notably recorders and plastic clarinets), golf club heads (used for its good shock absorbance), automotive body parts, wheel covers, enclosures, protective head gear, vballs [reusable paintballs], and toys..
