Customization Options
We specialize in both low and high volume orders
Meridian Laboratory has helped generations of engineers, designers, maintenance technicians, and innovators around the world bring their designs to life. In the past, custom precision polyurethane was an expensive and lengthy process, but that’s no longer the case. Our unique and versatile prototype and production process can deliver parts in volumes as low as one piece, in as little as 5 business days.
Typically, our customers come to us to develop a single tested and working prototype and want to put that part into standard production once proof of concept is shown. Once we have standardized any part, it can be repeated an infinite number of times, with cost-effective and repeatable results. We manufacture and produce on a daily basis, and can deliver high-volume production runs in batch deliveries to meet your needs and usage patterns.
- Prototypes available in as little as 5 business days
- Tolerances of 0.001” or better in both diameter and runout
- Single prototypes to high-volume production, in an efficient and cost-effective way
Check out our durometer options below, our engineers can help find the best option to suit your different applications (hard/durable to soft/forgiving).
