Use Case: Laser-Cut Packaging Prototypes

Overview

We create precision-cut packaging prototypes that help companies test structure, assembly, and presentation before moving to production. Our laser systems produce exact, repeatable samples that match real-world manufacturing tolerances.

Scenario

A client developing a new line of electronics packaging comes to us for physical prototypes. Using their vector design files, we laser cut several variations of box panels, inserts, and window layouts to evaluate fit and presentation.

Each piece is cut with tight tolerances, ensuring accurate folds, interlocking tabs, and clean edges. We include engraved logos and optional window cutouts so clients can see how the product will appear in final retail form. The components are delivered flat-packed and ready for quick assembly and hands-on testing.

What Clients Receive

  • Multiple precision-cut prototypes for comparison and testing

  • Flat-packed parts with clean fold lines for easy assembly

  • Consistent alignment and fit across all samples

  • Optional branding elements such as engraved logos or cutouts

  • Durable material options like chipboard or acrylic

Benefits

  • Fast, accurate evaluation before tooling or production

  • Realistic mockups suitable for presentations and retail tests

  • Lower cost and turnaround than traditional die-cutting

  • Confidence that the final packaging will fit and function as intended
