We are known for our outstanding part quality, quick deliveries, our unmatched personalized customer service.
“In my years of experience in contracting out rapid prototyping, I’ve found Realize, Inc. to be the most reliable outfit we’ve dealt with by far in terms of getting what we want, when we want. Most of the time prototypes are turned around even quicker than anticipated with absolutely no degradation in the quality of the parts. Their ability to turn around high priority jobs at a moments notice has made them invaluable to our design and market research processes. I’ve really come to appreciate their professionalism and personal attention to detail that gives me the confidence the parts will be done right the first time. Their responsiveness coupled with their creativity in materials and processes really sets Realize apart and makes them a valued resource I trust and rely upon.”Manager of Industrial Design, Delta Faucet Company
Realize, Inc. proudly specializes in Stereolithography (SLA®) technology with an iPro™ 9000 SLA® Center, an iPro™ 8000 SLA® Center, seven Viper™ SLA® Systems and two SLA-5000 Systems. Our iPro systems exhibit one of the largest build platforms available today. With an envelope of 25″x29″x21″ each, we can handle big parts with ease. At the opposite end of the spectrum, our Vipers are capable of reproducing small parts with extremely fine detail when utilizing a High-Resolution (HR) build style. With eleven various SLA® Systems in our lab, we have the capacity to respond quickly to your critical timeline.
