3D Prototyping for Startups and Companies in the Canaries
3D prototyping for startups and companies in the Canary Islands: from sketch to a working part, fast iterations, materials and confidentiality. Quote in 24 h.
You have a product idea and you need to hold it in your hand before investing in a mould or a production run. That jump —from the screen to a part you can touch, measure and test— is exactly where 3D prototyping saves startups and companies time and money. In the Canary Islands we do it with no minimum order and delivery in days, not weeks.
From sketch to a working part
3D printing turns a file, or even a drawing, into a real part. If you already have the design, we accept STL, STEP, 3MF and OBJ. If there is no file yet, we model it for you from a photo, a sketch or a description; the 3D design is included, from 20–60 €. We print parts up to 30×30×30 cm in one piece; for larger prototypes we work in sections, with joining and a professional finish.
Fast iterations: the real value
A prototype almost never comes out perfect on the first try, and that is the point: with 3D printing each iteration is cheap and quick. You print version 1, test it, tweak the file and launch version 2 the next day. This rapid prototyping cycle lets you validate fit, ergonomics and tolerances before you commit money to an injection mould. For a startup, being able to fail cheaply is a competitive edge.
Which material for each stage
The material is chosen for what you want to test in each version:
| Prototype stage | Material | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Visual / concept model | PLA | Cheap and fast, ideal to validate shape |
| Functional / fit part | PETG or ABS | Withstand heat, use and mechanical stress |
| Flexible parts (seals, grips) | TPU | Flexible like rubber |
| Maximum detail (connectors, jewellery, miniatures) | Resin | Fine detail and a smooth surface |
| Outdoor use / weather | ASA | No yellowing under the sun, resists salt air |
Confidentiality of your project
We know a prototype is usually sensitive information: an idea that is not on the market yet. We treat your files and your design confidentially, we do not reuse them for other jobs and we do not share them with third parties. You work with a single point of contact and your models stay between you and us.
Turnaround, prices and a quote in 24 h
Simple parts are ready in 24–72 h; if we need to design or post-process, count on 3 to 7 working days. As a price guide: small part 5–15 €, medium 15–40 €, large or technical 40–120 €, and design from a photo 20–60 €. The quote is free and we reply within 24 h, with an invoice including IGIC (the Canary Islands tax). Pickup in Tenerife (north and south) and shipping to the rest of the Canaries in 24–72 h.

Frequently asked questions
What is 3D prototyping and how does it help a company?
3D prototyping means making a real part from a digital file to test an idea before producing it in volume. For startups and companies it helps validate shape, fit and ergonomics, show the product to investors or clients, and catch flaws while fixing them is still cheap.
How fast is a rapid prototype?
A simple part is ready in 24–72 h. If we need to model the design from scratch or add a finish, count on 3 to 7 working days. The quote is free and we reply within 24 h.
Is 3D prototyping for businesses confidential?
Yes. We treat your files and your design confidentially: we don't reuse them for other jobs and we don't share them with third parties. Your idea stays between you and us.
