Low-volume manufacturing
Scale to tens or hundreds of thousands of parts — one-off programs or recurring supply. CNC and additive routes plus full finishing. Tooling wear is managed transparently with long-term partnership in mind.
Core capabilities
Pick a process — each page summarizes methods, materials and how we qualify parts.
-
CNC Machining From 1 to 500+ parts with global delivery. Milling, turning, EDM and wire EDM using imported multi-axis CNC equipment. -
3D Printing Additive manufacturing for geometries that are difficult or uneconomical to machine — complemented by CNC for finishing and critical features. -
Sheet Metal Laser cutting, forming and fabricated assemblies — ideal for brackets, enclosures and chassis in aluminum and stainless steels such as AL5052 and SS304. -
Vacuum Casting Urethane casting in silicone molds for bridge production — fine surface detail with multiple copies per mold and short lead times. -
Finishing Services Painting, plating, anodizing, polishing, laser marking and more so your parts meet cosmetic and environmental requirements. -
Quality Inspection Incoming material checks, in-process controls, first-article inspection and final reports — aligned with your drawing and industry expectations.

Get in touch Frequently asked questions
Common questions from engineers and buyers evaluating our shop.
What does Unique Prototype manufacture?
Unique Prototype provides rapid prototyping, rapid tooling and low-volume manufacturing including CNC machining, 3D printing, sheet metal, vacuum (urethane) casting, surface finishing and quality inspection — typically from first article through production-like batches.
Where is Unique Prototype located?
We are based in Changan, Dongguan, Guangdong, China (Unique Prototype Technology Co., Limited), and ship programs worldwide for international customers.
How fast can you deliver prototypes?
Many prototype programs can ship in as little as three business days depending on process, material, finishing and drawing completeness. We confirm lead time in the quote after DFM review.
What file formats do you accept for quotes?
STEP, IGES and native CAD are preferred for CNC and machining; STL or 3MF for additive projects. Include quantity, material, critical tolerances and cosmetic requirements for accurate pricing.
Do you support low-volume production, not just prototypes?
Yes. We run bridge production and low-volume manufacturing from single digits to 100,000+ parts, combining CNC, printing, sheet metal and vacuum casting with finishing and documented inspection.
