About ProtoSoon
Founded in 2014, ProtoSoon is a China-based digital manufacturing service provider delivering precision-made parts to clients in a variety of industries. Operating with over 120 pieces of equipment, the company offers support throughout the product development process—from early prototypes to production-ready components.
ProtoSoon’s comprehensive service offering includes metal and plastic 3D printing (SLA, SLS, SLM, MJF), high-accuracy CNC machining, low-volume vacuum casting, and scalable injection molding. The company stands out for its quick lead times, instant quoting system, and commitment to quality across industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical devices, and consumer electronics.
3D Printing Capabilities
ProtoSoon offers a wide range of industrial 3D printing technologies to meet diverse application needs across prototyping and functional part production.
For metal applications, ProtoSoon provides SLM, which builds fully dense metal components by fusing powdered metals layer by layer using a high-powered laser. This technology is well-suited for complex geometries and high-performance industrial parts.
For plastic applications. Among the available options is SLA, a resin-based process known for its high resolution and smooth surface finish, making it ideal for visual models and intricate designs. SLS, another popular method, uses powdered nylon materials to produce durable, end-use parts with excellent mechanical strength. MJF is available for fast, accurate production of strong, detailed nylon parts—particularly useful in low- to mid-volume production runs.
These technologies allow customers to choose the most appropriate method based on performance requirements, material properties, and project goals.

Online 3D Printing Quoting and Ordering System
To improve accessibility and efficiency, ProtoSoon launched its online 3D printing quoting and ordering system. With just a few clicks, users can:
- Upload their 3D files
- Select the preferred printing technology and material
- Instantly receive pricing
- Place orders directly online
We tested the system by uploading a Benchy model, and it returned multiple technology options, along with pricing estimates for each. The interface also allowed us to scale the model and choose post-processing options before finalizing the order, making the entire process smooth and intuitive.
