Problem Definition

Problem Definition

Design

Creative Design

Creative Concepts - Ideas will be presented exploring features, structure, distinctive form and appearance to create a unique design.

Design Development - Chosen ideas are integrated into one design with resolution of all engineering details.
Prototyping

Prototyping

Functional prototypes or non-working mock-up models or test rigs are made as required to prove the design and detailing. Prototypes are evaluated against the Design Brief and assessed by the client.
Manufacturing

Manufacturing

We can recommend toolmakers, manufacturers, part suppliers or other sub-contractors as needed. We can obtain quotations, liaise with suppliers, attend die trials or production runs and generally oversee the product into production.

Our Services

  • Idea Assessment
    Getting started can be a major issue for those that are new to the product development process. We apply our experience in assessing feasibility, IP issues and planning for the best option to bring a new product to market.
  • Industrial Design
    Our core activity is industrial design where we use creativity with the latest development techniques. Our collaborative team approach to projects ensures the best possible outcomes.
  • Engineering
    It is imperative to get the engineering details right for product success. Material and manufacturing process selection, clever detailing, parts reduction and design for assembly speed contribute to profitability.
  • Manufacturing
    We have extensive experience in organizing and dealing with product manufacture in China. With the continuing trend in globalisation, companies are forced to manufacture products to particular price points.

Testimonials

  • I believe that Design Edge is one the best product design consultancies in Australia. Their attention to detail has ensured success – tooling, production and sales.

    Tim Hobbs - Director, Office Electrics UK and Elsafe Australia

  • As a newcomer to design and manufacturing, Design Edge helped me through from idea to production, with significant savings in tooling by the clever re-use of a part performing two functions in the one product. Great!

    Ian Whalan - Owner, Fox Lights

  • Since 1990, as consultants on my projects, Design Edge has repeatedly produced very high quality design that works. The second best part is that they are affordable!
