Rapid Prototyping
It’s all about speed
You will get a functional CAD, thermal & CFD analysis, PCB prototype, advanced optical design for your hardware devices and vehicles
We are Furtherium, a Munich- and Fremont-based design and prototyping studio specializing in industrial design, product engineering, digital twins, and rapid prototyping. We design, simulate, and build advanced mechanical, aerospace, optical, electronics, and robotic systems — fully in-house, with no outsourcing.
Expertise
● Product design, visualization, and realistic demo (SolidWorks, PTC Creo, Blender, KeyShot, Houdini, Substance, Figma, DaVinci Resolve)
● AI-assisted 4K UHD asset generation, LoRA dataset training, consistency, and procedural modeling (Flux 2 Dev, Wan 2.2, Qwen Image 2512, Z-Image Turbo, LTX 2)
● Industrial, mechanical, aerospace, optical, and electronics engineering
● Rapid physical prototyping (FDM, SLA, vacuum casting and infusion, composites, CNC milling)
● PCB design and prototyping (multilayer only, SI/PI/EM/thermal analysis, EMI/EMC simulation)
● Robotics and automation systems (mechatronics, control software, embedded systems)
● Digital twins development and advanced simulation (FEA, CFX/CFD, thermal, multiphysics)
Prototyping Capabilities
● 3D printing (FDM/SLA), vacuum casting (up to 300 °C), vacuum infusion, composites, CNC milling, and custom multilayer PCBfabrication/assembly (incl. 01005, 0201)
● In-house lab with optical inspection, logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and component testing
Fast in‑house PCB prototyping in Munich with specific materials (Isola, Rogers, Taconic, Nelco, DuPont) and component sourcing can be offered as a separate follow‑up project once the design is finalized.
We are prototyping boards in‑house in Munich (1pcb.de) without 2+ week wait mfg and delivery times, using high‑performance materials and sourcing components from Mouser, Digi‑Key, Farnell (Avnet), Rutronik, Bürklin and Arrow. You get tight quality control by the same engineer who designed the board, direct feedback on manufacturability, and pricing that is competitive with fast Chinese or Dutch services once you factor in shipping, customs and iteration time.
Development, Simulation and Software Stack
● SolidWorks
● Ansys Suite (Mechanical, SIwave, Icepak, HFSS, Maxwell, CFX/CFD, Sherlock, etc.),
● KiCAD, NI Multisim
● Zemax OpticStudio
● MATLAB Simulink, Visual Studio
● Nvidia Omniverse
EU/German engineering standards with IPC Class 2/3 for PCB design and manufacturing. We design to meet ISO 13485, ISO 10993, ISO 10110, and IEC 60601 requirements and support compliance for medical and high‑reliability devices. Our environmental practices are aligned with ISO 14001 principles, and an ISO 9001 quality management system implementation is in progress, with formal certification targeted for 2026.
We collaborate under Furtherium, Inc. (US, Canada) and Furtherium UG (EU/UK) with transparent project-based contracts. Most projects take 1-2 weeks with dedicated communication via our private AWS-hosted community or your corporate systems (Slack, Jira, Notion, Asana, Trello, GitHub, etc.). Typical project cost: €4-8k. Hourly rate: €80/hr.
A deal is considered concluded under the terms of the offer once the contractor confirms the client’s request and the client accepts it through payment. Written communications between the parties form an integral part of the agreement and may serve as valid evidence in case of dispute resolution.
Where additional terms are required, a separate contract and detailed specifications for a series of projects may be agreed upon. If necessary, a separate Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) may also be executed; the contractor’s total liability is limited to the total value of the client’s paid orders.
Offer prices are valid as of the date of publication and may be updated by the contractor at any time prior to order confirmation and client acceptance.
All quoted prices are exclusive of VAT. For clients based in Germany, German VAT (MwSt/USt 19%) will be added to all invoices (Down Payment Invoice, Final Settlement, Outstanding Balance Invoice).
For clients based in the EU (excluding Germany), business customers who provide a valid VAT ID will be invoiced without VAT under the reverse-charge mechanism, and VAT will be self-assessed by the customer; if no valid VAT ID is provided, German VAT will be added.
For clients in the United Kingdom, local VAT rules apply depending on the place of supply and the customer’s VAT status.
For clients in the United States and Canada, services are provided by Furtherium, Inc. (California, USA). As our services are generally classified as remote consulting and digital services, they are not usually subject to California sales tax; however, sales tax may be charged where required by applicable US state or Canadian provincial law, for example if taxable software or physical deliverables are supplied or if local economic nexus thresholds are exceeded.
