Our R&D sales personnel are
constantly in touch with the needs of the different
safety markets. With the numerous requests for new
product development, the R&D department is
constantly up-grading the computer technology. This
is significantly decreasing the turnaround time from
concept to prototype.
An example of the newest
technology is described below.
1. Design from a need for a product in a related
industry.
2. Concept meeting.
3. Design formulation.
4. Wire diagram in 3-D.
5. Cutting patterns are generated from unwrapping
software.
6. Nesting programs allow us to use the most
economical layouts.
7. Computer programmed cutting machines cut to the
optimum tolerance.
8. Prototyping begins.
