This is the perfect time to combine the client\u2019s vision of how they want the product to perform with our own deep knowledge of technology, material science, and manufacturability. Working together early in the design process results in the best possible product at the lowest possible cost.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-305\" src=\"https:\/\/www.egoplastic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/injection-molding-concept-production.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.egoplastic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/injection-molding-concept-production.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.egoplastic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/injection-molding-concept-production-300x149.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.egoplastic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/injection-molding-concept-production-768x381.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"446\" \/><\/p>\n<h1><strong>From Creation to Production<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>Ideally this starts at conceptualization\u2014as a trusted partner, clients often come to FacFox with a mere idea, a \u201cwhat if\u201d possibility. We then discuss function, performance, styling, human factors, conditions of use, design, tooling options, and manufacturability. Design revelations often happen during these sessions\u2014sometimes even a breakthrough that had never been considered, such as an innovative combination of tool design, materials, and processes that reduces the number of parts, improving durability and reducing costs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Once the design is fully understood and approved, the engineering teams can quickly move on to advanced design, material selection, <a href=\"\/docs\/prototype-development\">prototyping<\/a>, <a href=\"\/service\/injection-molding\">molding and tool<\/a> design, and production. An increasing number of products are smaller in size, yet highly complex with precise tolerances. This is where FacFox thrives. We implement rigorous testing of materials and design, including computer modeling to verify key parameters, finite element analysis (FEA), <a href=\"\/docs\/design-for-manufacturing\">design for manufacturing(DFM)<\/a> and predictive analytics such as moldflow analysis. Sophisticated laser and vision inspection equipment search for any potential flaws, defects, and process variances.<\/p>\n<p>Collaborating early in the design process is the best way to deliver high-quality products in the least amount of time\u2014ideal for taking advantage of market opportunities or emergency needs.
