Delivering Precision Under Tight Deadlines: A Maritime Prototyping Project

For engineers and R&D leaders, meeting tight deadlines while delivering precision is an everyday challenge. From high-performance equipment to intricate prototypes, every part must align with strict specifications and timelines, leaving no room for error.

The Challenge: Delivering Precision Under Pressure


One recent project required manufacturing 19 custom precision CNC machining and 52 parts in total, all within just three weeks. The materials included brass, stainless steel, and engineering plastics, each with unique machining requirements,  adding to the complexity.

Challenges like these are common in R&D and design-focused projects, where even a single unexpected delay can mess up the entire timeline. With limited time for manufacturability analysis, sourcing materials, and quality control, finding the right partner becomes critical. But these challenges are where Rototip shines.



How Rototip Delivers Results That Engineers Can Rely On


For this project, our approach was tailored to the customer’s specific needs:

When 3 weeks would be barely enough to convince your own manufacturing workshop or your long-standing supplier to commit to the project, Rototip delivered the complete assembly, by addressing these common pain points, we enabled our client to stay on track.



Transparency in Manufacturing


Engineers often describe manufacturing as a “black box”, a process where progress is unclear until parts arrive. At Rototip, we prioritize transparency, providing regular updates throughout production.

We constantly follow up on the production schedule and keep a close eye on the production line; if an operator is done with the setup of the machine, we know right away; if the operator faces a challenge with manufacturing,  our engineers intervene immediately. 


“I find it strange that, at an age where people follow up if their pizza is already in the oven, manufacturing is still a black box. We change the rules of the game” adds Erkin, Project Manager at Rototip.

This real-time visibility allows design and R&D teams to plan effectively, confident that their parts will arrive on time and to spec.

Why Engineers Choose Rototip


For engineers and R&D leaders, the true value of a manufacturing partner lies in precision, reliability, and communication. At Rototip, we focus on enabling our clients to meet their goals and solve practical problems rather than overpromising or overcomplicating the process.


Our long-lasting customer knows that we care about his project at least as much as his own team. No matter what the challenge he faces, we are there to help him overcome it.”  Galip, CEO of Rototip
