Replicate's Process From Start to Finish

We think that when it comes to our models, props and prototypes the journey is equally, or in some cases more exciting than the destination. We also believe that our ability to utilize all available technologies and techniques helps to creatively find solutions.

Check out some of the recent innovations that help us do what we do.

Once we receive CAD files or drawings, we review them for correctness and completeness, we then discuss with the client the finish and level of detail that they're looking for.

Once the files have been completely broken down on the PC, we're left with hundreds of pieces that make up the puzzle and the backbone for the model, and then construction can begin.

While Every Detail
  • Generation of 3D model using advanced software to provide a near to life representation via CNC milling machine
  • Systematic assembly of the puzzle requiring a steady hand and absolute accuracy
  • Laser cutting and etching of finer details to make up the surface finishes
  • Precision painting — this sometimes takes days to complete
  • Final detailing adding client signage and personal touches
  • Build a robust shipping crate (if required) to ensure safe delivery
