Rapid prototype tooling using Criteria Systems is the fastest and most cost effective way to fabricate tooling for limited production, either by using prototype models as patterns for a mold or by printing molds and cores directly from digital data. Whenever low tooling cost is needed, rapid prototype tooling with Criteria Systems is the answer.

Our technology make rapid prototype tooling remarkably efficient, allowing companies of all types and sizes to print prototype models, patterns and molds as easily as they would print documents on a standard 2D desktop printer.

Urethane Casting, Rapid Protype Tooling

Using the our process and materials reduces the time and expense of alternative rapid prototype tooling processes. The rapid prototype tooling process can output a high-definition mold from 3D CAD and other digital data in just hours. Printing direct molds with the our process eliminates the pattern and core box production step in the traditional sand casting process, and allows engineers to prototype parts in metal that were previously cost and time prohibitive.

Rapid prototyping is perfect for master patterns for fast turnaround aluminum castings by sand or plaster molding, or for producing plastic parts in thermoplastic resins or urethanes.

• Quick production of model or prototype
• Model produced from designer's database
• Facilitates design application review

Criteria Systems can accept many types of data, including:

• STL file
• SolidWorks
• OBJ
• IGES
• DXF/DWG
• 3D Scanned Data
• and more

When changes take place in your production designs, the finished model is machinable and adaptable - modifications without starting the whole process over.

If you need a prototype, pattern, tooling or cast parts, Criteria Systems can supply the rapid prototypes. And, if CNC machining is the best solution, we can do that too. Call us today to get started on your next prototype or low volume production project.
