Design creation & research

INNOVATION AT THE HEART OF YOUR DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT PROCESS

You need new ideas to improve your product’s image by enhancing the performance of certain functions, to reduce the manufacturing costs of your product or provide new features.

METHODOLOGY

  • Design workshops/brainstorming sessions
  • Concept proposals
  • Partial modelling of the proposed solutions
  • Taking on board your ideas to perfect the design and integrating your feedback
  • Performing an analysis of each solution in the light of its specifications to produce a check list of ideas
  • Performing an analysis of the production technology and the required materials
  • Producing a working model to demonstrate the concept

OUR ASSETS

  • We guarantee full project confidentiality.
  • Using all of our experience over different spheres of operation, we develop cross-functional skills.
  • Responsible for delivering over a hundred projects per year, our teams are versatile and skilled.
  • Our experience gives us an innovative edge in numerous areas:mass-consumer products, medical, sports and leisure, domestic appliances, watch-making, mechanical …
  • CIR (Crédit Impôt Recherche – Research Tax Credit)
  • CII (Crédit Impôt Innovation – Innovation Tax Credit)
  • ISO 9001 – EN 9100 Certifications

DATA TO BE INPUT

  • Your needs or your challenge
  • Make an existing product appear more attractive by enhancing its features
  • Reduce the manufacturing costs of your products and become more competitive
  • Make your product evolve to reflect the changes in standards
  • Improve quality and ease of use
  • Make your idea a reality
  • Your specifications

OUR RESOURCES

  • A team of 15 cross-disciplinary experts with an innovative approach.
  • CAD-CAM (Computer Aided Design-Modelling) software tools (PTC Creo®, Catia…) to shape our ideas more realistically.
  • Internal prototyping methods enabling a rapid response in producing concept-proving models.

DELIVERABLES

  • A detailed manual of ideas with comments relevant to each concept detailed
  • 3D-Modelling integrating any volume constraints of the components and kinematics
  • Concept validation models to prove feasibility
