Accelerate Product Development: Faster Iteration & Prototyping with 3D Printing

In new product development, speed is everything. McKinsey Global Institute data shows that only about 21% of product ideas make it to launch, and even fewer achieve commercial success. Rapid ideation and iteration are therefore essential for turning concepts into market‑ready products.

In‑house 3D Printing for Unmatched Speed

Traditional outsourcing can drag prototype delivery into weeks. With in‑house 3D printing, lead times shrink to hours or days, slashing development cycles by weeks. PolyJet technology delivers not only speed but also realistic form, feel, and function.

PolyJet offers a palette of over 500,000 colors—including Pantone‑verified options—ensuring color consistency and repeatability. It also supports a wide range of durometers and textures, allowing designers to test tactile and mechanical properties right at the proof‑of‑concept stage.

Visualizing Prototypes to Drive Stakeholder Alignment

High‑fidelity prototypes are invaluable not only to engineers but also to sales, marketing, and investors. They provide a tangible reference that improves pitch accuracy, customer messaging, and stakeholder confidence, reducing the need for back‑and‑forth emails and misinterpretations.

Realistic prototypes convey design intent, form‑fit, texture, and functional elements—critical details that accelerate decision making and bring clarity to all parties involved.

3D Printing in Your Product Development Pipeline

PolyJet 3D printing equips product teams with the tools to shorten lead times, increase iteration density, and produce multiple variants simultaneously. By prioritizing realism through predictable colors, tactile fidelity, and functional accuracy, teams can communicate ideas effectively across design, sales, marketing, and finance, ultimately fast‑tracking the journey from concept to revenue.
