Using our considerable experience as a prototyping management company, we are able to ensure that the 3D prototype we provide you with will meet your requirements at the first time of asking, without the need for re-modelling or CAD data modification which can often add extra expense onto the cost of your packaging development.
Having received approval for the Bin Buddy design we were able to produce SLA models for the client to carry out product testing. The prototype allowed for testing of various elements of the model including the fit between the cap and the container. By ensuring the holes in the cap were adjustable it was also possible to carry out a sprinkle test. Following the SLA stage a further set of vacuum cast models were supplied to client in the colours of the proposed production caps and these were used to present to our clients and customers to begin the process of securing pre production orders.
