Accelerating Prototyping
and Validation.
Develop. Manufacture. Validate.
Prototypes, samples, low-volume production, and testing—all technically evaluated,
documented, and delivered from a single source.
From Prototype to Validated Results. Faster.
At the Solero Technologies Sample Shop, we turn ideas into precision components, prototypes, and low-volume production parts. From CNC machining and additive manufacturing to post-processing, assembly, and testing, we bring together all essential manufacturing processes under one roof.
This integrated approach enables us to deliver practical solutions quickly and flexibly for development, prototyping, and pre-production projects—complete with technical evaluation, dimensional inspection, and fully documented results.

Why Solero?
At Solero, prototyping, testing, and engineering work hand in hand. This integrated approach allows us to respond quickly, enable short iteration cycles, and deliver results that directly support development and quality decisions.
From feasibility assessments to final implementation, we centrally coordinate manufacturing, testing, and external processes—providing a single point of contact throughout the entire project.
“We don’t just test whether a component works—we show why it works and where its limits are.”

Prototyping & Manufacturing
From initial design concepts to finished components, Solero supports your development, validation, and pre-production projects with advanced prototyping capabilities, short lead times, and extensive manufacturing expertise.
CAD/CAM, CNC turning and milling, SLA/FDM 3D printing, conventional machining, and coil winding enable the rapid production of individual components, prototypes, and low-volume production runs.
Complementary processes, including heat treatment, surface finishing, and assembly, ensure reliable prototypes for early validation, fast development iterations, and predictable procurement processes—all coordinated through a single point of contact.

Testing & Validation
From early functional validation to reliable test verification, Solero supports development, product approval, and pre-production projects with a comprehensive range of testing and validation capabilities.
Our expertise includes force-displacement testing, mechanical, pneumatic, and hydraulic functional testing, as well as environmental, temperature, and thermal shock testing (air-to-air and air-to-liquid). We also perform vibration testing, salt spray testing, and ingress protection testing to IP6KX and IPX9K standards.
Measurement data, detailed analysis, and structured documentation provide a reliable foundation for engineering decisions, quality assessments, and further product approvals—with efficient communication and a single point of contact throughout the entire testing process.

– Environmental, temperature, and thermal shock testing (air-to-air and air-to-liquid)
– Vibration testing
– Salt spray testing
– Ingress protection testing to IP6KX and IPX9K standards
All testing is supported by measurement data evaluation and detailed analysis.
Yes. In addition to standardized testing, we can develop and perform test procedures based on customer-specific requirements and specifications. Technical feasibility is evaluated in advance to ensure the appropriate testing approach.
Depending on the testing method, individual components or complete assemblies can be tested. Information on dimensions, weight, electrical connections, operating fluids, and other relevant test conditions should be provided when submitting a project inquiry.
Yes. Integrating prototyping, testing, and technical evaluation enables rapid iteration cycles. Components can be manufactured, tested, analyzed, and further optimized based on the results. Our integrated approach covers the entire process—from initial prototypes to validated results.
Yes. In addition to manufacturing and testing, Solero supports feasibility assessments, test concept development, test planning, failure analysis, and data evaluation. The results can be directly incorporated into the next development iteration.
In general, we can process nearly all machinable materials, depending on safety and process requirements. For additive manufacturing, a range of approved FDM materials and 3D printing resins is available.
Yes. Solero works with specialized partners and coordinates the entire process.
