Hardware prototype needed, with spring mechanism

$1500-2000 USD

$1500-2000 USD

Paid on delivery
I'm building a consumer product which involves a spring retracting mechanism, much like in small tape measures (a flat spiral spring which retracts a belt). Prefer you have experience working with such mechanics. I have the preliminary design already with STL files (have the basic plastic housing and spring mechanism design). I need someone who can revise, improve, and finalize my mechanical design, test it, and build several professional fully functioning prototypes. 3D printing is ok for prototyping, but I also need final BOM and specs for manufacturing. I need to do this very fast. Need someone who can iterate quickly, with strong experience with CAD, flat spring design characteristics, mechanics, and skills building good prototypes. Ideal situation is someone with small machine shop and 3D printer access who can test and iterate fast. Fine tuning is needed here to get it working well. Basic electronics and PCB understanding would also help. Please send link to your portfolio of relevant projects and experience.

Hi there, This is Bogdan from Romania. I'm a mechanical engineer, 3D designer and modeler. I have over 15 years experience designing and prototyping different devices and systems across multiple industries. I would like to collaborate with you on this project and possible future ones. I could re-design and improve your mechanism (i will need a lot more details) and the prototyping should be discussed separately - depending the complexity and the nunber of parts. I could put in contact with my partner in the SF bay area which makes 3D printings onto a ProJet 6600. When the project will be finished and approved, you will have all the components in different cad formats, 3d pdf, and of course the bom. You may open a chat room here, and we'll discuss all the details. Regards Bogdan
