Low Volume Manufacturing & Production Services

From 10 to 100,000 units, low volume manufacturing is the best pathway to move from prototype to production smoothly. WayKen provides on-demand low volume production with the ability to quickly deliver custom parts.

What is Low-Volume Manufacturing?

Low-volume manufacturing is a rapid production method that precedes full-scale production, ranging from 10 to 100,000 units. It does not require investment in expensive production tools, but reduces risk, allows design flexibility, shortens time-to-market, and creates opportunities for production cost savings. Additionally, it provides agility and quick turnaround for on-demand manufacturing in the supply chain.

Effective and Efficient Low Volume Production & Manufacturing

As product lifecycle shrink and new product development cycles shorten, flexible innovation and time-to-market remain critical. To meet customization and diversity demands, production lines gravitate towards low-volume manufacturing.

Advantages of Low Volume Manufacturing

  • More flexible design iterations
    Creating low volume manufacturing allows for more efficient verification of design, engineering and manufacturability.
  • Short turnaround times and low costs
    Tooling is cost-effective for low volume manufacturers to handle orders quickly and flexibly, with no minimum order quantities.
  • Closing the gap to production
    Low volume trial runs bridge the gap between prototype and production, timely identifying and resolving any issues before moving to mass production.
  • Reduced time to market faster
    Low volume manufacturing services optimize the link between production to supply chain and consumer, providing rapid time-to-market for new products.

    As a specialized manufacturer of CNC machining, we are equipped with advanced 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis CNC machining centers to provide complex geometries and customized low volume CNC machining for vast manufacturing requirements.

    polyurethane parts in low-volume

    Urethane Vacuum Casting

    Silicone molds are made using additive manufacturing technology or CNC-machined masters to produce high-quality plastic-like polyurethane parts in low-volume for functional testing and pre-production evaluation.

    low-volume sheet metal

    Sheet Metal Fabrication

    Our fabrication capabilities include stainless steel, steel, aluminum, brass, red brass, galvanized materials, and fabrication of frames, equipment panels, enclosures, chassis, brackets, and more. We cater to sheet metal fabrication, from low-volume prototypes to high-volume production.

    Aluminum extrusion in low-volume

    Aluminum Extrusion

    Aluminum extrusion is suitable for manufacturing aluminium parts or profiles with consistent cross-sectional shape, usually using aluminum alloy 6061 and 6063 material extrusion. It also supplements CNC post-processing, including drilling, tapping, etc.

    low-volume metal casting

    Rapid Metal Casting

    We can provide pressure die-casting for aluminum, magnesium, and zinc, alongside investment casting for steel and copper. Additionally, we offer post-CNC casting finishing and flexible production methods for low-volume metal casting project requirements.

    See What Our Customers Say

    We got ten boxes from you last week and the parts (and packing) were impressive. So impressive that we only examined one box and sent everything directly to our assembly line.
    And all the parts are as good as the one box we examined, we are super happy.
