Educational parts manufacturing possibilities
Prototyping is a significant part of the development of biological devices. Most biological products have to meet strict safety requirements, so it is important to iterate a variety of prototypes for R&D and testing in order to make a safe and functional end-use part. Different biological prototypes require different materials. Some metals and plastics are biocompatible, while others exhibit certain characteristics (toxicity, degradation, etc.) that make them unsafe for bodily interaction. We’re proud to offer all kinds of biological prototyping and parts manufacturing services to support your experiments and research.
Precision manufacturing is so essential when we produce components and equipment for robotics and automation since the parts are complex and must be precise to be assembled within a robot. Other elements like customizability will also be considered. The creation of a robotic system might start with an idea, but requires intensive prototyping, testing and production to bring it all to fruition. That’s why 3ERP is here to help. Our technical team stands ready to advise you on the most cost-effective and efficient rapid prototyping methods for your given mechanical application.
When creating a prototype for a medical device, it is important to work with a partner with experience in the field of medical device manufacturing.3ERP is one such expert. Having worked with the likes of Beckman Coulter, GE Healthcare, Philips Healthcare and Becton Dickinson, we have produced a vast array of medical products, including handheld devices, surgical tools, anatomical models, X-ray equipment, MRI scanning equipment and more. What’s more, we can handle almost all kinds of materials to meet your needs.

Educational Manufacturing Faqs
Is PPS ISO certified?
Can I request a sample?
For certain manufacturing processes like injection molding, we can provide a T1 sample for your parts, then further samples if required.
How fast can I get my parts?
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.
I want to protect my IP — are my designs secure?
3ERP 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.
