Traditional path: €20,000+ invested in injection mold tooling.
8-12 weeks to wait for parts.
If the design is incorrect, the company pays for another round of tooling, another delay, and another €20k is gone.

With MJF small batch printing, you get to:

• Print 200 actual functional units in 5-7 days.
• Cost you about €2000-2500 in total (about €10-12 per part, no tooling).
• Test with actual users, gain insights and make iterations at no consequence.

A real world example:

A client ran a pilot batch of 200 units and found a seriously critical design flaw. Had they gone straight to tooling, the mistake would have cost them €50,000+ in scrap, re-tooling, and time. Instead, they spent a few thousand on the pilot run, made the design change, and launched confidently.

The point: Small batches aren’t just good to have. They are a risk mitigation strategy that can save time, money and trust with investors.
