HOW DO I GET MY PRODUCT MADE?
-
- STEP 1 Produce your concept or design with sketches or CAD drawings (we can help with the drawing if necessary)
-
-
STEP 2 If PU foam or elastomer is your material of choice then it is important for us to know at this early stage. We can pick up on design problems that can make manufacturing difficult, and where possible they can be designed out here. We can also advise on materials in the context of the product application e.g. does it need to be waterproof, does it need to be light etc. see our section on materials for more info

-
STEP 3 We give the estimates of the cost for the project at this stage depending on the level of involvement. A full CAD drawing will then be produced by us.
- STEP 4 Depending on which prototype method is chosen we will either produce a stereolithography (SLA) model, machine a model, hand carve a model or directly machine a mould in aluminium. see our section on tooling for more info..
- STEP 5 We then produce a test moulding to prove the moulding process and deliver some samples for final approval.
- FINAL STEP Once we have made our production tooling we then go into manufacturing your bulk order.
