PROTOTYPING WORKSHOP 打样间

Our own workshop space

We have had our own workshop / prototyping space since we moved to our current location in 2010 but not many people outside of our staff have seen it. Not only does it enable us to do physical mockups and models but we are able to even make some custom and bespoke pieces for some of our projects (梦想改造家‘s TV program is a obvious one but also for others). We also do a lot of work for our product design in this space to, often taking concept sketches to 1:1 mockups within the confines of our office. Besides the normal wood working equipment; other tools include: laser cutter, resin 3d printer,  band saw, drill press and a large enough air compressor to drive paint sprayers and the like. Probably the most useful to us is the laser cutter since it is well suited to the cad workflow. The place is a bit too small for a spray booth and while we had a MIG welder in the workshop for a while (while making a “car” for Haier / Casarte), we had to give it up since it was just a little too much.  Anyway, here are some not so up to date photos of the space.

自从2010年我们搬到现在的办公位置以来，我们建立了自己的车间/打样空间，但除了我们的员工之外，没有多少人见过它。它不仅使我们能够进行实体模型和模型制作，而且我们甚至能够为我们的一些项目制作一些定制和定制的零件(举例：”梦想改造家‘的电视节目）。我们也在这个空间为我们的产品设计项目也帮了很多忙，经常在我们的办公室内可以将概念草图绘制成1:1的实体模型。除了普通的木工设备；其他工具包括：激光切割机、树脂3d打印机、带锯、钻床和一个足够大的空气压缩机来驱动喷漆器等。对我们来说最有用的可能是激光切割机，因为它非常适合cad工作流程。这个地方对于喷漆室来说有点太小了，虽然我们在车间里有一段时间的MIG焊机（为海尔/卡萨帝制造“汽车”时），但我们不得不放弃它。无论如何，先放点空间的照片。
