Customer specialized in developing kitchenware products in Chongqing, China. This prototype was made for presentation in exhibition to show new product developed. Customer had high expectation to the prototype that had to work and look like the product as close as possible.

CNC milled ABS and POM parts. CNC prototypes had the key advantage of real material that brought the more reliable strength verification.
Partial fitting test of the milled parts. The complex part was usually split into several simple pieces to be milled respectively then glued together.

Assembly test with standard components from customer. To discover the potential fitting issues timely, the assembly test was done accordingly.
What customer said to the prototype: "It is hard for us to distinguish this is the prototype or product, this is what we exactly need and expect."
