H7 / Products and startups

From hand-built to repeatable production.

Your product sells, but every unit is cut, welded and fitted by hand, or you're about to pay for moulds before the design is ready. We redesign it for online fabricators, jigs and a small assembly line: more units, no factory, no moulds too early.

Sound familiar?

The prototype-to-production gap.

Backlog

Sorry for the delays, we're thousands of orders behind.

More units, same teamParts ordered online and jigs for assembly: less hand work in every unit.

Tooling

We got a mould quote before the design even works.

Prove it firstValidate and sell with online fabricators; tool up when demand is real.

Quality

Every unit needs hand-fitting to come out right.

Self-locating partsTabs, slots and fixtures so every unit comes out the same.

What we do

Made for production, not the bench.

Design for online fabrication

Laser-cut, bent, CNC and 3D-printed parts you can order online, quoted at 1, 100 and 1,000 units.

Jigs and a small line

Jigs, fixtures and assembly steps so a small team builds consistent units without hand-fitting.

Moulds at the right time

Only when the design and the demand are ready, not before.

Case studies

Cast or machined part to laser-cut sheet metal

A typical recovery point, redesigned as laser-cut, press-braked plate with self-locating tabs and one weld, checked under the same load case, and quoted at 1, 100 and 1,000 units for both versions.

Same loadcase on both versions, so the cost difference is like for like
