Flatworld Provided 3D Product Animation Services to an International Machine Equipment Manufacturer

Client Profile - International Machine Equipment Manufacturer

The client is based in Japan (Honshu Island) and was established more than 100 years ago. They have a large dealer network and offices throughout the world. The client is a machine tools manufacturer with a reputation for 100 percent accuracy.

Client Requirements and Challenges - 3D Animation for Manufacturing Product

The client needed engineering support to create a visually appealing 3D product animation. Requirements included a high degree of accuracy and a presentation that would impress participants in a food processing equipment exhibition.

The project involved three primary challenges -

• Creating a complete motion sequence that accurately depicted product use
• The client required a specific type of 3D animation software for the project (3ds Max)
• The product was new and did not have existing physical references

The Solution by Flatworld Solutions

The Flatworld Solutions 3D animation experts developed this solution -

• The team included an account manager, three product animation specialists and a quality analyst
• The Flatworld Solutions (FWS) specialists used Maya and 3ds Max animation software
• The FWS team ensured that the final 3D animation reflected accurate product motions. Due to the inclusion of a new product with minimal physical references, this required several rounds of revisions
• The final deliverable included four models and satisfied client requirements and expectations

The Results - 3D Animation for 4 Product Models

This project demonstrates the growing use of 3D animation techniques in support of product manufacturing and marketing. It also illustrates the value of working with an engineering services provider that is willing to make multiple revisions to 3D animations - especially important for new products that require 100 percent accuracy.
