Our Products and Services

Product Tooling

Our turnkey solution for product development includes tooling, checking fixtures, and End of Arm Tooling (EOAT) as needed. We offer comprehensive tooling services for:

  • Plastic Injection Moulding
  • Metal Stamping
  • Thermoforming
  • Aluminium Pressure Die Casting
  • Blow Moulding

Additionally, we provide product validation services, including prototyping, metrology, and testing, to ensure the highest quality and performance standards.

Manufacturing Facilities

We undertake projects for the development of both brownfield and greenfield manufacturing facilities. Our turnkey solutions include:

  • Process Design
  • Machinery Sourcing
  • Installation and Commissioning
  • Process Optimization Support
  • Scalability and Future-proofing

Our aim is to deliver solutions built on Industry 4.0 technology. However, we also account for the need to balance automation with manual labor for low-volume operations and job creation in emerging markets, providing opportunities for low to medium-skilled workers.

Our Product Development Philosophy

Our project management is built on APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning).

The end goal of any turnkey solution that we undertake is a qualified part, a qualified system and ultimately a qualified automobile. Green PPAP!

Six Pillars of Product Realisation

Requirement Analysis: Defining the functional, technical, and regulatory requirements of the component.

Feasibility Study: Assessing the technical and commercial viability of the concept.

Project Planning: Developing a project plan with timelines, resource allocation, and budget estimates.

Concept Design: Creating initial design sketches and 3D models using CAD software.

Detailed Design: Refining the design with detailed engineering drawings and specifications.

Simulation and Analysis: Performing virtual simulations to analyze the performance, durability, and safety of the component.

Prototyping: Building physical prototypes for initial testing and validation.

Prototype Testing: Conducting rigorous tests on prototypes to evaluate their performance under various conditions.

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA): Identifying potential failure modes and their impact, and implementing corrective actions.

Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring the component meets all relevant industry standards and regulations.

Design Iteration: Making necessary design modifications based on testing results and re-evaluating the prototypes.

Tooling Design: Designing and manufacturing the tools and molds required for mass production.

Process Development: Defining and optimizing the manufacturing process, including assembly lines, quality control procedures, and automation.

Supply Chain Management: Securing reliable suppliers for raw materials and sub-components, and establishing logistics strategies.

Pilot Production: Running a limited production batch to test the manufacturing process and make final adjustments.

Mass Production: Commencing full-scale production, ensuring all processes are running smoothly and efficiently.

Quality Control: Implementing continuous quality control measures to maintain high standards throughout production.

Process Optimization: Continuously monitoring and optimizing production processes to improve efficiency and reduce costs.

Inventory Management: Managing inventory levels to balance supply and demand effectively.

Aftersales Support: Providing support services, including installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.

Customer Feedback: Collecting feedback from customers to identify areas for improvement and inform future development.

Continuous Improvement: Using customer feedback and performance data to make ongoing improvements to the component and its production process.

End-of-Life Management

  • Recycling and Disposal: Developing strategies for the recycling and disposal of the component at the end of its life cycle.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring end-of-life processes comply with environmental and industry regulations.
