Rapid Prototyping and the Aerospace Industry

Aerospace prototyping accounts for a significant portion of the industry. Like many other sectors, engineers face unique challenges when developing new concepts.

They must factor in technological limitations, manufacturing restrictions, lead times, and fabrication costs. Coordinating all those things for instant production may prove impossible without a troubleshooting phase.

The advancement of rapid prototyping in aerospace is evident and comforting. Aircraft engineers must adhere to significant regulatory requirements to meet industry demands. Exceeding consumer or industrial expectations is more challenging without aerospace prototyping. Meanwhile, cutting out the RP process can jeopardize some companies. They may end up developing useless designs.

Get high-quality manufacturing services for your custom aerospace prototypes and production parts. Launch products faster, reduce risks, and streamline production processes with on-demand production at competitive prices.

What kind of aerospace & defense parts
can we make

Producing reliable aerospace part prototypes is a task that relies on accuracy, quality, and strictly adhering to specifications. For the years while we have specialized in aerospace prototyping, we have gathered expertise to produce all kinds of aerospace parts, whether simple or complex. GreatLight conducts numerous quality checks and testing that all the parts produced must be satisfied by our customers, as well as undergo the most rigorous certification and testing procedures.

Aerospace Manufacturing Capabilities

GreatLight offers wide range of manufacturing processes for aerospace prototypes and production parts.

Rapid CNC machining

GreatLight operates a large number of CNC machining centers, mills, and lathes (for CNC turning), enabling rapid prototyping of CNC machined parts made from plastic or metal. We offer a wide range of material and finishing options and the potential to combine CNC machining with other rapid prototyping processes.

Rapid 3D printing

Our 3D printing rapid prototyping services are ideal for 3D printed plastics and metals, with extensive material and finishing options available. These additive manufacturing technologies can also sometimes be used for production.

Rapid tooling

Rapid tooling (bridge tooling or prototype tooling) refers to the rapid CNC machining of metal tooling for injection molding. It is therefore the first step toward rapid injection molding.

Rapid sheet metal prototyping

Rapid sheet metal prototyping is a set of rapid prototyping services for the production of sheet metal parts. This includes various forming, cutting, and assembly processes for manipulating the sheet metal stock in different ways.

Aerospace FAQs

Yes, GreatLight Rapid Prototyping is an ISO9001-2015 certified manufacturer. We manufacture parts to a high standard, no matter the project or the customer.

For certain manufacturing processes like injection molding, we can provide a T1 sample for your parts, then further samples if required.

We can fulfill orders quickly, but lead times depend on a few factors, such as the manufacturing process, order quantity, and part complexity. CNC machined parts can take as little as five days, 3D printed parts can take as little as three days, while moldings made via rapid tooling can take as little as 5–7 days.

GreatLight values privacy and security with the utmost seriousness and will happily sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) at your request, giving you peace of mind about your intellectual property.
