Case Study: Trinity Products, Inc. achieves 80% faster prototyping and a halved design cycle with 3D Systems' ProJet CJP 460

Trinity Products' 3D Printed Rapid Prototyping Solution Turbo-Charges Remote-Controlled Race Car Company

Trinity Products, a $10M manufacturer of high-performance remote-controlled cars, engines and aftermarket parts, faced a critical prototyping challenge: its existing 3D printing could not produce small, strong, high-resolution parts quickly enough to validate fit and function, causing costly delays and risky design iterations.

Adopting 3D Systems’ ProJet CJP (ColorJet) printer gave Trinity five-times faster prints and three-times finer resolution (0.0035" vs. 0.01"), slashing typical print time by 80% and cutting the design cycle from eight to four weeks—often reducing prototype turnaround from weeks to under a day. The result was functional, track-tested parts, trade-show-ready mockups that drove new sales, lower costs, faster supplier communication, and new marketing uses for high-quality prototypes.
