Prototypes, spares and plant models for Vadodara's engineering and process industries
Vadodara's factory belt covers power-transmission equipment, rail and electrical engineering, chemicals, petrochemicals and pharma, with a lot of that work done in estates such as Makarpura and Savli. Layer X supports the small, urgent jobs around it: a prototype before a tooling decision, a spare guide for a packing line, a fit-check part, a process-plant model for a boardroom. We work from 204, Iscon Emporio, Satellite, Ahmedabad, about 110 km away. There is no office in Vadodara; parts are made in Ahmedabad and couriered or collected.

What we make
Prototypes before tooling
Housings, brackets and assemblies for electrical and power-equipment firms, so the design is tested in hand before a mould or die is paid for.
Process-plant and layout models
Scaled models of chemical or pharma plant layouts, in printed sections on a laser-cut base, for management and investor presentations.
Change parts and line spares
Guides, star wheels and holders for pharma and packaging lines, copied from your sample and printed in nylon.
Chemical-resistant guards and fixtures
Caps, covers and jigs for chemical-belt plants, with the material chosen by what it will touch. We confirm suitability with you first.
Metal parts for harder duty
Small DMLS metal parts for engineering firms when plastic will not do, quoted per part.
Who we make it for
- Design and R&D teams at power, electrical and rail-equipment makers in the Makarpura and Savli belts
- Maintenance heads at chemical and petrochemical units who need a chemical-resistant guard, cap or fixture
- Pharma and packaging engineers who need change parts, guides and trays for their lines
- Project and plant managers who want a layout model of a proposed unit
- Students at Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda and nearby colleges building project prototypes
Choosing the right process
| Option | How it works | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Courier to Vadodara | Made in Ahmedabad, packed and couriered to your plant or office. Transit time is confirmed with your quote. | Factory deliveries to Makarpura, Savli and other estates |
| Collect from Satellite | Pick up at 204, Iscon Emporio, Jodhpur Cross Roads. The Ahmedabad-Vadodara Expressway is 93.1 km long, so the drive is manageable for a same-trip collection. | Plant models and fragile prototypes |
| Planning around a review or audit date | Count back from the meeting: quote in 24 h, process lead time (SLA 2-4 days, FDM 3-5, SLS 4-6, DMLS 5-7), then courier or collection. | Design reviews, customer visits and plant presentations |

How it works
Share the drawing, sample or layout
CAD, a drawing, a sample part or a plant plan all work. Tell us the fluid, temperature or load if the part works in a plant.
Review and quote in 24 hours
An engineer chooses the process and flags anything that needs a stronger or chemical-resistant material.
Make and inspect in Ahmedabad
Parts are printed or cut at the studio and checked against your drawing before packing.
Courier to Vadodara or collect
We pack for the road and courier to your Vadodara address, with transit time confirmed in the quote.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have an office in Vadodara?
No. Layer X has one studio, at 204, Iscon Emporio, Jodhpur Cross Roads, Satellite, Ahmedabad, about 110 km from Vadodara. Work is made there and couriered, or you can collect.
Can you print parts for a chemical plant?
Often yes, but the material must suit the chemical, concentration and temperature. Tell us what the part touches and we will recommend a material or tell you if plastic is the wrong choice.
We make electrical or power equipment. Is a prototype worth printing?
For housings, brackets and mounting parts it usually is, because you can check fit and assembly before tooling. For live-voltage parts, discuss insulation and flame-retardant material requirements with us up front.
Can you make a model of our proposed plant layout?
Yes. We build layout models from your drawings, in sections on a laser-cut base. The level of detail is agreed with the quote, and we do not install it at your site.
How long does an order to Vadodara take?
Production lead times are SLA 2-4 days, FDM 3-5 days, SLS 4-6 days, DMLS 5-7 days and laser cutting 7-14 days. Courier transit time to Vadodara is confirmed with your quote.
