While an idea may appear crystal clear in an inventor's mind, others may not always be able to visualize the invention as clearly. This is why prototypes can be a useful tool for inventors trying to explain their ideas to other people. A prototype gives people a better sense of what an invention would look like and why it would be useful.
To assist inventors who have new product ideas they want to display at INPEX – but who do not have prototypes or working models – INPEX is now offering a new Prototyping Booth Package. With this package, along with receiving a booth to display your invention or new product at INPEX, you'll also receive a three-dimensional model of your invention. And, after the show is over, the prototype is yours to keep!
If you have an invention but don't have a prototype, contact an INPEX representative at 888-54-INPEX or fill-out our online contact form to find out more about our special INPEX Prototyping Package! You'll get all the features that come with a standard INPEX booth, plus a prototype of your invention by the show date.
Producing Your 3-D Prototype
Prototypes included with the INPEX Prototyping Booth Package are produced using Dimension™ 3-D Printers. Dimension 3-D Printers employ a patented technology called Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) to construct physical models layer by layer from durable acrylnitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) plastic.
Here how the process works: you provide us with information about your invention (size, shape, appearance, etc.), we create a three-dimensional computer model, and then we construct the model using a Dimension 3-D Printer. Models can be produced in various sizes, and may be designed to include a number of different features or details.
