In the prototype industry, there are two main materials for transparent prototypes-- PC and acrylic, the production methods of these two prototypes are basically the same, mainly CNC machining and vacuum re-molding. The following small series will introduce you in detail.

If the transparent prototype is made by CNC machining, there are basically only three steps: programming, CNC machining and polishing, the first two links are the same, only in the grinding of this link is different, acrylic only needs to be polished with sandpaper or polishing machine, you can achieve a transparent effect, the PC prototype needs to be fumigated to achieve a transparent effect.

The principle of doing transparent prototype by means of vacuum compound mold here is the above: first make a prototype through CNC machining or SLA, then make a silicone mold through this prototype, and then use this silicone mold for batch copying. However, the prototype made in this way can only be translucent, and it is not as good as CNC machining in terms of hardness and high temperature resistance.

In summary, the Transparent Prototype is mainly made by CNC machining and vacuum re-molding, but the transparent prototype made by vacuum re-molding is not as good as CNC machining in terms of performance in addition to the relatively low price.

is the so-called cash-in goods. When customers choose products, they must pay attention to the sex ratio of products, not just the price!
