Product Design
Industrial

We turn concepts into build-ready designs that survive field use and feel intuitive to operate.

Designed to build
Concepts shaped with constraints, tolerances and tools in mind
Driven by use
User needs, environments and interaction guide every decision
Aligned on day 1
Close coordination with electrical, mechanical and firmware teams

Design has to do more than look good. It has to support the function, fit the electronics and survive the way real people use it. We make sure the details hold up because the field doesn’t forgive shortcuts.

Industrial product design

Concept development and sketching

Whether your idea lives in CAD or on a napkin, we help turn it into a product. Fast sketching and early collaboration help define direction based on use, technical feasibility and production goals.

Market and user insight

We design for real people in real conditions. Through user research and environmental analysis, we align decisions with actual behaviors instead of assumptions.

CAD modeling and rapid prototyping

We model in SolidWorks, Fusion 360 or Creo to match your workflow. Quick prototypes using 3D printing or CNC machining from our partner 29Tech help you evaluate early.

Design for manufacturability

We design with production in mind. That means planning for part count, tolerance, finish and cost from the start so your handoff is smooth and scalable.

3D rendering and visualization

Visuals help align teams. We create realistic renderings for design reviews, pitch decks and usability testing using KeyShot or native CAD tools.

Sustainable design choices

From reduced material use to smarter part integration, we help improve performance while meeting sustainability or ESG goals.

Branding and product presentation

We support packaging, finish, labeling and interface design that matches your brand voice. Products are delivered polished and ready to represent you.

Documentation and technical specs

Designs are backed by clear, accurate documentation. Our handoff packages include exploded views, part callouts and revision tracking for manufacturing.

Soft-goods and protective design

We design flexible elements like pouches, wraps and inserts using materials like neoprene, TPU and ballistic nylon. These are ideal for transport, protection and wearables.

Interface and interaction design

We prioritize touchpoints that perform under pressure. Whether it’s a trigger pull, indicator light or button press, we design for intuitive use in real conditions like gloved hands, low visibility or limited dexterity.

Ruggedization for harsh conditions

We build for impact, vibration and thermal extremes. Our industrial design work supports field systems and military devices with sealed enclosures and tough materials.

Iterative design and real-world feedback

We evolve products through testing, usage and honest feedback. This continuous refinement leads to products that feel natural, last longer and work better.
