Case Study: Hydro-Logic Ltd. accelerates flood-warning telemetry production with Protolabs rapid injection moulding

Hydro-Logic Ltd. - Customer Case Study

Hydro-Logic Ltd., a company specializing in water monitoring technology, faced a challenge manufacturing end caps for its new FROG telemetry logger. The production volumes were too low to justify expensive steel tooling, but they needed production-intent parts for testing rather than basic prototypes. They turned to Protolabs and its rapid injection molding service to find a cost-effective solution.

Protolabs used its ProtoQuote online system to quickly provide a design analysis and affordable quote. The vendor produced aluminum mold tooling and 400 end caps from a specific green polycarbonate, which perfectly matched the customer's requirements. The solution allowed Hydro-Logic to keep costs low and receive the first completed parts for its new product efficiently, ensuring a swift time-to-market.
