CUSTOM FINISHING & ASSEMBLY SERVICES.

CUSTOM FINISHING AND ASSEMBLY SERVICES FOR HIGH-END PROTOTYPES

At Empire Group, our custom finishing and assembly capabilities make all the difference for our customers. 

Understanding the nuances of each and every material used in our shop is critical to our prototype fabrication and additive manufacturing methods, and is key to achieving our superior quality post-processing and finishing. We offer a wide array of painting options and specialty surface treatments to achieve virtually any appearance or effect. 

After meeting with our customer, project components are manufactured (CNC machined, 3D printed, cast, or hand-crafted) and then perfected to ensure design specifications are met. Components are then passed to our model shop where they are enhanced for surface finish, geometric accuracy, aesthetics, and more based on your request and specification.

From simple 3D printed parts that need sanding to extremely complex prototypes in need of technical coatings and precise Pantone color matching, we have the expertise to consistently deliver a quality product.
