Zios — Advanced Manufacturing & Rapid Prototyping, Chandigarh, India
One of India's leading 3D printing & 3D scanning providers — seven manufacturing systems under one roof in Chandigarh, serving clients pan-India.
FDM / SLA / SLS 3D Printing
Three additive processes under one roof. FDM builds durable functional parts for fit-and-function checks; SLA produces smooth, fine-detail models; SLS creates strong, complex geometries without support structures. A project moves between materials and finishes as it develops — from first concept model to functional prototype.
Blue-Light 3D Scanning & Reverse Engineering
Blue-light scanning captures the exact geometry of a physical object as a point cloud; reverse engineering converts it into editable CAD. The right tool when a part exists but its drawings don't — damaged, discontinued, or undocumented components digitized and ready for redesign or remanufacture.
Urethane & Vacuum Casting
A master pattern becomes a silicone mould; the mould yields multiple polyurethane parts — no production tooling required. Small batches of functional or presentation-ready prototypes, and a lower-cost step before committing to metal tooling. The bridge between one 3D print and a production run.
CNC Routing & Machining
Computer-controlled cutting from solid metal, plastic, or wood stock — strength and surface finish additive processes can't always match. Functional prototypes, jigs, fixtures, and parts that demand a specific engineering material or machined accuracy.
Laser Cutting & Engraving
A focused beam cutting and marking flat sheet materials — metal, acrylic, wood — directly from a digital file. Stencils, signage, enclosures, panels: precise, repeatable cuts from single prototypes through small production runs.
PCB Prototyping
Circuit designs turned into physical, populated boards for testing and validation before a larger run. Built alongside the mechanical capabilities, so an electromechanical prototype comes together as one project — electronics and enclosure proven together.
Custom Fabrication
The capability that ties the other six together: hands-on assembly, finishing, and construction that turns printed, cast, machined, cut, and scanned components into a complete working build to specification.
From Makerspace to Manufacturing Floor
Zios began as Zios Makerspace, part of Fab Lab Chandigarh — a community fabrication space where makers, students, and early-stage builders tested and built ideas. As requests increasingly came from engineers and product teams instead of hobbyists, we shifted focus: a shared maker space became a dedicated advanced manufacturing and rapid prototyping operation built for industrial clients.
Today all seven systems run from one facility at Sector 43-B, Chandigarh, serving clients across India — one point of contact from design file to finished part.
The Work We Take On
- Automotive component reverse-engineering — damaged or discontinued parts rebuilt as editable CAD.
- Industrial equipment enclosures and functional prototypes ahead of production tooling.
- Consumer product component scanning for redesign, tooling, and documentation.
- Rapid tooling and short-run urethane casting ahead of hard tooling.
- Dimensional inspection — scan-to-CAD comparison for quality verification.
- Signage, stencils, and panel laser cutting from single pieces to small runs.
