Our Customers

These longstanding aerospace companies have relied on our products for decades.

Our Product Development Approach

We’ve rethought the industry-standard approach to product development to save you time and money at every step.

  1. No NRE Charges

    We cover all upfront engineering costs, so you don’t pay for uncertain work.

  2. Design for Manufacturability

    Our SpaceX-trained engineering team designs products with high-rate production in mind, reducing costs and lead times for you.

  3. In-house Qualification Testing

    Our parent company, Amca, maintains an in-house prototyping and testing facility that can perform a wide range of DO-160 tests, dramatically cutting traditional testing lead times.

  4. Better Data

    We rigorously document all test campaigns and provide you with a comprehensive data package to ensure easy compliance with your customers’ qualification requirements.

The Results

  1. Increased supply chain resiliency, lower cost, and lead times. New products qualified in record time.

    Use us as an already qualified second source for products where you’re struggling with quality, lead times, or pricing. Bring new designs from prototype to production fast—with disciplined qualification, clear documentation, and responsive engineering support.

Our Technology

RAPID is our advanced product development platform. It enables our factories to develop and deliver high-reliability components to market in less than half the time of traditional suppliers. The end result is improved availability of critical components, greater resilience and utilization of the entire domestic supply chain, and painless procurement in a sector long defined by slow timelines and rising costs.

  1. Design

    We translate requirements into clear, manufacturable designs with fast engineering feedback and physics-based simulation tools.

  2. Prototyping

    We operate a software-enabled manufacturing facility dedicated exclusively to product development prototyping.

  3. Qualification

    Protoshop has significant qualification testing infrastructure, enabling us to decrease reliance on sluggish outside test vendors and tightly control test campaigns.

  4. Manufacturing

    We manufacture our products at factories we own, each with decades of experience producing aerospace and defense components across every major category.
