From CAD to production
Precision manufacturing for robotics teams.
From first prototype to small-series production, Exefy helps robotics and hardware teams source custom mechanical components through a streamlined, engineer-friendly quotation process.
Capabilities
Processes for the parts robots are made of
Machined, formed, cut and printed parts — reviewed by people who understand how they fit together.
CNC milling
Machined prismatic parts such as housings, brackets, mounts and actuator bodies.
CNC turning
Rotational parts including shafts, spacers, bushings and threaded components.
Sheet metal fabrication
Bent and formed sheet parts for chassis, enclosures and frames.
Laser cutting
Flat profiles cut from sheet for plates, gussets and mounting interfaces.
3D printing
Additive parts for fast iteration, complex geometry and functional prototypes.
Surface finishing
Post-processing that protects parts and gives them their final look and feel.
Custom mechanical assemblies
Sub-assemblies combining multiple manufactured parts and hardware.
Low-volume production
Small production series once a design has been validated in prototype.
How it works
Four steps from design to delivery
- 01
Upload your design
Share CAD files, drawings and requirements in a structured request.
- 02
Engineering review
The Exefy team checks your parts, materials, tolerances and quantities.
- 03
Receive your quotation
Get a tailored quote you can accept, question or decline.
- 04
Production & delivery
Submit your PO and follow your order status through to delivery.
Prototype to production
One partner as your design matures
Start with a handful of prototype parts, iterate quickly, then move to small-series production without starting your sourcing from scratch. Exefy keeps your requirements, files and history in one place.
Materials & finishes
Metals, polymers and finishes
Industries
Built for robotics and hardware
Robotics startups
Prototype parts and first production series for new robot platforms.
Industrial automation
Custom fixtures, end-effectors and machine components.
Drones & autonomous systems
Lightweight frames, mounts and enclosures.
Hardware product teams
Mechanical parts for connected and electromechanical products.
Research & development
One-off and small-batch parts for labs and test rigs.
Engineering firms
Sourcing support for client projects that need custom parts.

A European manufacturing network
Exefy coordinates manufacturing through partners in Scandinavia and Southern Europe, serving European customers who want production close to home.
About Exefy
Making custom parts easier to source
Exefy is a digital manufacturing service for robotics companies, hardware startups and engineering teams. We help you get custom mechanical components made — from prototypes to small production runs.
Instead of contacting many workshops yourself, you send one structured request. Our team reviews your files and requirements, then coordinates manufacturing through partners in Scandinavia and Southern Europe.
You get one point of contact, engineering-focused communication and a clear view of your order.
The Foundry
Everything a hardware team needs to ship.
Foundry brings a small number of exceptional technical founders onto the platform and deploys them into some of the largest industrial businesses via Partner's portfolio.
Foundry believes that effective solutions must be designed on the factory floor.
Working directly with leadership teams, engineers, operators, and process owners, founders begin with a consequential operating problem and build solutions in the industrial environment.
The program
Five ways we help you build
Manufacturing Plan
Find the right factory. Design review, supplier vetting, cost mapping, and DFM before you build.
On-Site In Europe
Real factories. Real suppliers. Visit our partners in Scandinavia and Southern Europe with our team.
GTM Support
Beyond hardware. Cloud, compute, marketing, and launch support from day one.
Founder Network
Meet builders. Connect with founders, operators, and engineers shipping at scale.
Pre-Seed Access
Founder-friendly capital. For standout teams aligned with our vision.
On the ground
5 days.
Our real factories.
We take selected teams into our real factories. Not showrooms. Meet the engineers, production lines, and suppliers behind the products you want to build.
