Ordering a full production run on an untested part is a gamble. Zimmor’s sample service lets you hold, fit and finish-check the actual hardware before mass production — so the only surprise is how well it works. Samples are typically ready in 5–7 days and shipped to most markets.
What the Sample Service Covers
- ✓
3D-printed concept models for early shape review
- ✓
CNC or cast samples that match the intended production process
- ✓
Functional prototypes you can assemble into your glass panel
- ✓
Finish samples — PVD, brushed, polished or coated chips for approval
- ✓
Pre-production pilot batches for project sign-off

Why Sampling Matters
A sample settles three things a PDF never can: does it fit the glass, does the finish read right, and does it assemble without force. Catching a 0.2 mm error here costs a sample; catching it after mass production costs a container.
Sample Specifications
*Values reflect real industry benchmarks from peer manufacturers’ published specs (sample lead time commonly 5–7 days). Verify sample fee/courier with Zimmor’s factory before publishing.
