Mid Valley Protofab (MVP) Reviews

Fantastic Machine Capabilities...


R & D / Engineering , Medical Device

Speed 4 / Price 4 / Quality 5

Used Mid Valley Protofab to develop several products for manufacturing, by using their expertise for machining to produce highly precision machined parts for our robotic equipment. Sometimes their lead-times are longer and their pricing is higher, but they have a great track record with producing high quality parts, which out ways any delivery issues. Furthermore, we rely on their Quality Department for our FAI, certs, and COCs and they are top notch. They are a great vendor to work with, always willing to go the extra distance and very responsive when there are issues with any part(s) being machined; i.e., changes and revisions to machined parts. They seem to be able to take our last minute changes and keep producing our parts per print.

Strengths: customer service, accurate, attention to detail, design assistance

Good choice for device prototyping

Speed 1 / Price 3 / Quality 5

My start up uses MVP for a client prototyping and custom fab work. They have a high degree of attention to detail and industry expertise. They were able to tailor to our exact specifications and created an end product that was extremely high quality. Our only major issue has been that because MVP is a smaller machine shop, at times orders get backlogged and can lead to very slow turnaround time. Overall we were decently satisfied, because you get quality results but just have to wait for it.

Strengths: Attention to detail, end product,

Needs to improve: Long lead times
