Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing

Tools | Production | Time

At Thogus Products Company, we understand the importance of deadlines, downtime and the tool investment you must undertake. As a third generation family-owned manufacturer, Thogus is committed to bringing your business the latest in technology in order to increase your bottom line. That's why we invested in Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) equipment. This rapid prototyping machine creates a solid 3-D part in as little as 24 hours and without the need for tooling.

Technology | Engineering | Precision

Thogus' FDM equipment combined with 3-D scanner capabilities enables prototypes and even functional, end-use parts to be produced in short periods of time and up to a dimension of 16" x 14" x 16" (406 x 355 x 406 mm). Larger dimensions available upon special request. Rapid parts are built one layer at a time and formed exactly to the dimensions in the CAD file, resulting in precise pieces (within ±.005 inch or ± .0015 inch per inch whichever is greater) made from durable thermoplastics.

Results | Savings | Reliability

Thogus brings ideas to life with minimal investment. Realize tremendous time savings by correcting errors early in the prototype process. Thogus' engineering experts adjust your files for optimal production performance; after all, Thogus Products Company has provided high-tolerance, precision engineered products for over fifty years.
