Bring a sketch, a sample, a bent piece of tubing or a circuit board. We model it in SolidWorks, run strength and mold-flow analysis, and send you drawings, PDFs or e-drawings at every step so there are no surprises when the steel is cut.
A customer showed us a U-shaped metal tube he had bent to hold a camera. From that we designed the Scorpion grip: an ABS frame with rubber over-molded where the hand goes, for a comfortable, non-slip hold. It went on to sell at camcaddie.com.
Vision Products needed an aquarium for reptiles that stacked, breathed, and shipped broken down for assembly after purchase. Our design stacks with sliding glass doors in front and vented corner posts for airflow. Because the model already existed, we produced the assembly instruction sheet from the same files at no extra charge.
A customer brought a circuit board and three requirements: enclose it, mount it either with screws to metal or double-sided tape to glass, and keep the power cord in the bracket when the unit is pulled off. We scanned the board, designed the case around it, then designed the bracket around the case. It shipped as the Trackstick Pro.
Once the geometry is right we run analysis in SolidWorks to check strength and function and to optimize wall thickness, draft and gates before anything is printed or cut. You see the model as standard drawings, JPEGs, PDFs or e-drawings you can spin around on your own screen.
When the design is signed off, the next step is a prototype you can hold.
