Prototyping / Short-Run Manufacturing
Prototypes are required to confirm design, specifications, and validate function. These prototypes may be used as patterns in creation of tooling for the purpose of replicating. Freeman offers the industry's largest selection of machinable media, liquid tooling systems, and accessories used for creating prototypes, patterns, and tools suitable for short-run manufacturing.
Machinable Wax
