The initial idea (concept) generally arises from the thorough observation of reality and a skilled knowledge of the many factors that contribute to the realization of the project. In fact, while being able to freely express himself through formal, material and technical choices, the designer must take into account numerous constraints, giving priority to specific factors such as functionality, the choice of the most suitable materials in relation to the technologies that are available for production and assembly, the costs and the ecological aspect, all based on the needs of the client and future users.

Each object is therefore born only after an in-depth analysis of the existing and potential market requests, with a constant update of the research and studies on the various areas of development of the project.

In the design the idea is progressively elaborated, first with graphic sketches, then through more defined drawings or with the creation of a first three-dimensional study model. These are very important phases as they allow to experiment with the validity and actual feasibility of the project by making continuous corrections and changes.

The design finds further development in the execution of final technical drawings in scale performed on the computer through CAD and both solid and surface modeling programs. These software are continuously renewed in order to better simulate the structure of the future product and to study its volumetric, material and chromatic aspects in detail.

With the computer it is possible to detect and solve problems quickly and cheaply before proceeding with the realization of the different prototypes which, once evaluated and progressively corrected, lead to the final prototype, now very similar to the final product.

If everything works, once the real characteristics of the project have been tested, we move on to production, and finally to the distribution and sale.

Thanks to the collaboration with different realities, MZ CONCEPT has the opportunity to follow its customers throughout the whole product development process from the design up to industrial production.

The prototypes  made with 3D printers or with real size or milled scale models (maquette in the automotive sector).

The design of the production molds for various transformation technologies, especially in the plastic materials sector such as injection molding, thermoforming, fiberglass with traditional and injected lamination, extrusion and blow molding, and consultancy on other technologies such as laser cutting or sheet processing.

The samples made from pilot molds or industrial molds that are necessary for validation and therefore needed for the transition to industrial production.
