MandE Services & Solutions delivered technology consultancy services to a private investor in The Netherlands willing to kick-off production of sporting equipment, starting with, specifically, padel rackets.
MandE realised the following tasks for the investor:
- bladder moulding tool design based on draft product and tool shape
- tool design adjustments specifically for bladder moulding technology
- optimisation of tool weight and implementations of usability features
- alignment components and fasteners selection
- creation of 2D drawings, 3D models and specifications for tool-maker
- tool production arrangement with a trusted partner in Asia
- support in sourcing bladder moulding consumables
The tool was delivered fast, at a good price, with minor modifications proposed by the tool-shop and agreed. The investor was happy with the overal quality, price and delivery time – a combination unbeatable by European suppliers. Mirror finish of the tool cavity is truly eye-catching and the investor is now testing his tool while learning the nitty-gritty details of the bladder-moulding process on the run.
