Ponto Quatro

Testing before youproduce.

An injection mould costs thousands of euros and takes weeks. A prototype costs tens of euros and is ready the next day. It's always worth finding the mistake in the prototype.

Prototypes of the same part, version by version

How it works

1

First version in days

We print from the drawing or file you already have.

2

You test and tell us what's wrong

Fit, play, strength, whatever it is.

3

We fix it and print another

Changes to the geometry based on what failed, not the colour.

4

We repeat until it's right

We keep every version. In the end you know why the part is the way it is.

Who it's for

  • Anyone producing a batch who wants to reach the mould with the right shape.
  • Designers and engineers, to validate assembly and ergonomics.
  • Anyone getting a product ready to sell.

What we test

Fit
whether it goes in, and how tight
Assembly
whether the parts go together in the right order
Ergonomics
whether it feels good to hold, whether the control sits where it should
Strength
whether it breaks, and where it breaks
Volume
proportions in the hand, which the screen always gets wrong

Recommended materials

PLA
shape and volume. Cheap and fast, for the first versions.
PETG
functional tests, when the part actually has to work.
Resin
fine detail and surface finish, when appearance is what matters.

Timelines
