A prime consideration in all 3Sixty developments is ‘fit for purpose’. We always ask “does the product function to it’s highest possible level of efficiency” as well as fit the bill visually and ergonomically. Whether for industrial or domestic use, the process is the same. At an early stage we take into consideration:
• What are the likely tooling costs?
• Will the product be easy to assemble?
• Is the product designed to be robust?
• Will it maintain its quality?
• Will it withstand consumer abuse?
• Is the product safe?
• Can we maximise the products performance?
• What are the best material to use?
• What environmental impact will the product have?
Starting with initial concept sketches, we work closely with our customers through more detailed designs. In this way our clients get the best end result, one which they have been involved with at each stage of the design process.
Once a design concept has been established we create 2 and 3 dimensional CAD renderings and solid models where required.
After fine tuning the product design complete CAD drawings are then used to produce precision tooling to the specification required for the product.
