Case study · Beyond the tool

Machines, fixtures and prototypes

Mechanical design doesn't stop at the mold base. We also design packaging-line change parts, CNC fixtures and in-house 3D-printed prototypes, so you can prove a concept before cutting steel.

Star wheels · timing screws · special mechanisms
Fixtures
CNC work-holding
Prototyping
FDM 3D printing for fit & function

Change parts like star wheels and timing screws have to match the container and the machine exactly. We design them, along with work-holding fixtures for CNC machining.

For new mechanisms and enclosures we print prototypes in-house first, so fit and function are proven before anyone commits to a tool.
