Prototyping solutions

I was familiar with OnSite but the new version is more user-friendly. What I like about OnSite is that it gives me a quote immediately which means I can go to my purchasing team and get an order raised straight-away. Often with OnSite I can get the part ordered in less than two hours from when I first make a quotation request at our purchasing department.

We are happy to use your new online services. In combination with the Next Day service we are just a few clicks away to see the costs of our r&d expenses in rapid prototyping. You can easily change the material or finish according to your needs. At the end if I have questions about certain applications, the response of the offline staff is really great.

I used to work with the Next Day software with which I was very satisfied. Nevertheless, I must say that the new OnSite website is a change for the better, mainly because there is no need to download software anymore. I can have my quotation in a few seconds and if it suits me, I can place the order straightaway. The renewed online service is much faster than before and already saved me a lot of time. OnSite for instance comes in very handy when I am at a customer's site: I just have to go online and can give my customer an immediate price estimation. A very useful tool!

The fast and slick service provided by OnSite has made it much easier to produce imaginative surgical devices in days, not months. It's a huge confidence boost when dealing with client surgeons - they're always impressed.

Our company PSP Industries produces pepper and salt tubs with the brand name Peugeot. The consumer goods market is very demanding and we try to present on average 6 new products a year, 3 at every important show (in January & September). In order to achieve this we have to make important decisions in a very early development stage, concerning the shape, the functionality and the design. Producing a mould and finalising it often takes too long. We use Materialise OnSite to order Next Day models which allow us to evaluate the design in detail in a very early stage and refine it. During this evaluation phase we often order several prototypes because they ease the analysis tremendously. Prototypes are extremely fast tools for our development division to validate their choices and they are the perfect solution for the marketing department to envision the appearance and the functionality of a product. The OnSite quote and order pages are very straightforward and the response regarding lead time and price is immediate. The possibility to work with a credit line is very advantageous for us because we don't have to lose time in getting the necessary signatures in time. Congratulations for this unique service which never lets us down and always delivers prototypes in time!
