There are many people who have excellent ideas for products that can change the world we live in. However, many of these people do not know what to do with their idea in order to turn it into a reality. Unfortunately, thousands of great ideas never come to fruition simply because a person does not know who to bring their idea to. Nowadays, it is easier than ever before for a product to be designed, engineered, developed into a prototype and manufactured on a large scale. One of those companies is us at Inertia. We specialize in plastic engineering and product design. Basically, we are a turn key company. You take your product idea to us and we will take care of every aspect of its development until consumers are able to buy it.
Plastic Engineering And Product Design Process:
Product design
There are many things that go into designing a product. You first need to determine important details such as the specific consumers who will use it, the way it should be used, the environment it can be used in, the risks involved in the project, the financial parameters and the specifications of how the product will perform. CAD models, physical mock-ups and concept sketches will need to be made to get an idea of the feasibility of the product. An investigation will also need to be done into whether or not the product can be patented. All of these areas require quite a bit of research. Therefore, you need to have a company that knows what they are doing in charge of these tasks.
Engineering
The plastic engineering and product design process will include a wide range of tasks. Structural analysis will need to be performed to ensure that the product will be stable. Software will need to be programmed that will control the production machines. The product will need to be tested and the supply chain needs to be evaluated.
Prototype
Inertia has a staff of in-house design engineers that will create a prototype of your creation. This will allow you to examine it and make sure it is exactly what you want. If not, changes will be made before it is produced on a large scale.
Manufacturing
Manufacturing can begin once the prototype meets your specifications. Inertia has the capabilities to perform a wide variety of manufacturing processes. Metal forging, metal casting, fabrication of sheet metal, CNC machining and the use of rigid and soft fabrics and foams are a few examples. Contact Inertia for all of your plastic engineering and product design needs.
