We produced a short animation for the POS dispensing unit for Paul Dodd of Rapid 3D Solutions, he wanted to use the animation during his pitch to RPM.
Paul Dodd, of rapid3dsolution describes the use of the product:
The Lime dispenser was designed for Experimental agency RPM Ltd for a campaign to promote a drinks range by a premium brand, Paul says “we took this challenge from RPM to provide 30 mobile lightweight dispensing units capable of hold 1000’s of limes”. The unit had to be aesthetically in keeping with the promotion and on brand, but also there was a great deal of functional requirements such the unit needed to be lightweight to light in and out of the collection vehicles, but strong enough also.
The main concern was how do the promoting guys get to the bottom of the unit without being consumed by the large bin ?, well this is where Paul’s love of the Archimedes screw came in !, we developed a system on the same age old line that if we could rotate a threaded bar and stop the inner shelf from rotating it had to climb and lower, so with some rapid prototyping ….it worked a treat ! 0-1000 limes in 6 seconds.
There are lots of experimental implementation companies out there trying to design and manufacture items without the years of experience we have- most of them are joinery shops whom try to engineer with the tools they have in house whereas with ourselves we are continuing to explore all the latest technologies and materials to suit the brief in hand, and working with RPM and taking on such a good brief is always a pleasure.
