The Challenge
Vision Engineering needed fast, high-quality industrial design to enhance their new digital HD microscope. Designed for use in factories and laboratories, the microscope required a deep understanding of user interactions in demanding industrial environments to create a design that was manufacturable inline with a variety of constraints.
The Solution
To ensure a robust and user-friendly product, we focused on seamless UI integration consistent with other products in Vision Engineering’s range, intuitive mounting solutions and efficient cable management. Working within functional and technical constraints, we designed the caseworks around their existing internal components, ensuring alignment with the Vision Engineering brand while achieving a refined, well-balanced aesthetic.
Taking insights from their marketing team, Vision Engineering aimed to elevate the product’s premium appeal. Leveraging our strong relationships with mass production finishing suppliers, we guided their production team in implementing high-end metallic effects. This enhancement not only refined the VE CAM’s appearance but also set it apart from competitors.
The Result
We closely collaborated with the internal engineering team at Vision Engineering to provide them with robust and considered CAD data that was ready for them to seamlessly develop the details for manufacture and assembly.
The VE CAM is now part of Vision Engineering’s product range, frequently showcased at technology exhibitions and adopted in factories and laboratories worldwide.
