Abstract: One of the biggest challenges faced by technology based Small and Medium Enterprises SME companies in Malaysia is to prototype their casing or housing for their customized electronic products such as embedded control systems, power supplies etc. One of the SME company from Malaysia involved in this case study also have faced the similar problem for their upcoming R&D products. Since the emerging of 3D printer’s technology, rapid prototyping is becoming more superior for their fast, cheap, and reliable compared to conventional or traditional manufacturing technology. The SME company used this as opportunity and used it for their prototype products and have saved time up to 75% and cost by 72% by decreasing the weight of the casing up to 77% using 3D printers.
