Case Study - Example One

Design

Our customer who supplies the commercial kitchen/restaurant industry had identified a new product opportunity. Having designed and produced a first prototype, he needed to production engineer where cost, functionality and external appearance were all of critical importance. Bray assisted in all three of these areas and produced a product which exceeded expectations and led to a very successful product launch and roll out.

Prototype Mould

Solidworks IGES files were used and turned into machine code using Mastercam. Resin was then machined on our CNC router to produce the prototype vacuum mould.

Skin

A skin was then taken from the prototype mould once the prototype vacuum forming had been approved. This skin was used to produce the production mould.

Production Mould

Having proved the prototype mould the production mould was manufactured using high temperature resin from the skin.

Production

Components stacked ready for assembly.

Assembly

We sourced and fitted hinges, locks, inserts etc and assembled the unit.

Packing

After assembly we inspect and pack the unit for dispatch.

Unit Installed

Our customer won a prized industry award for this product, Bray are delighted to have been involved in all phases of the products development and production.
