Physical trade show display models
Archetype3D builds custom physical trade show models for companies exhibiting around the world. Our shop is in Denver, and we work closely with you at every stage. A display model brings equipment that is too large, remote or complicated to the booth, ready for packing, travel and repeated setup.

A physical display model gives your sales team equipment it can bring to the booth and explain from every side. CWMF’s portable silo-system model puts large equipment into a traveling display. The Carson Group’s three ATM models use removable sides and interchangeable screens and panels, so presenters can change what the audience sees. Choose those demonstration features alongside the model’s size, case and setup needs.
Planning a trade show model
Share the show date, usable display footprint and the demonstration your sales team needs to give. Include the height of the display surface and any limits on access, packing or storage, not just the booth’s overall dimensions. For repeated events, we plan handling, protective cases and setup alongside model detail. Related guides: trade show display model planning checklist and showing large equipment at a trade show.
What it costs
Each project receives a fixed-cost proposal after we understand its scope. Cost factors include model size and scale, unique components, moving parts, removable sections, lighting, materials and travel cases. We also account for the schedule, shipping and installation where applicable. See what a custom scale model costs.
