Description:
Hello:

My name is Jeff and I am producing lighter cases/sleeves. I would like to know if you can produce a 3D vector form from picture images (jpegs). I need the image in STL format for prototype.

The image (2 Sides) needs to be in RAISED RELIEF/SCULPTED so its dimensions can be felt by the user. Each side is somewhat small so the scupt does not need excessive detail.

I can send patent pend. pics for possible approval.

Thank you
Jeff
Wants:
3D STL file format
Software:

Hello everyone
I am grateful for several submissions, many look very close to what I am looking for.
But please be aware I need the winner of final design in STL.
Thanks again, I am very grateful

I have the sleeve/case measurements, I just need the Lady image placed on the sleeve so you can feel the contours of her body. I want the user/owner of the case to "feel" the shape of the lady figure including her hair and body. Also, I have the name (raised letters) of the lady that also needs to be placed/created in RAISED RELIEF/SCULPTED on the OPPOSITE side of the lighter.

The lighter case/sleeve measurements are as follows
Length 3 inches
Width 1 inch
Thickness 1/2 inch

Do you by chance have a back side that we can make an actual sleeve or do you want a onesided sleeve with a wrap around grip or some type of a clamp like structure?

Please check attached 3D pdf and comment if this is 3D model type you would like to produce - what is the height of the trace - I used 0.5 mm (also for the thickness I used 0.5 mm). Do you need to have trace attached on solid (filled) base (like on the first test design I submitted) or this stand alone trace ("transparent") is enough?

@Amir Perle

I need the picture sculpted/raised relief onto
the lighter case/sleeve. I am manufacturing the
case/sleeve to fit a standard Bic lighter.
Those dimensions are as follows
3 and 1/4 inches in length
1 inch in width
1/2 inch in thickness width

Yes a 3D contour trace is necessary
Nothing dug into material

The 3D Production is just a CAD software. I just need the image
Rendered in RAISED RElIEF/SCULPTURED in STL format.

Attach email and I can send more detailed measurement

Please use this line trace / basic 3D model I attached to give us some more details about how part should look like (do you want to "dig in to" the material or you want to have like 3D contour trace etc.)...

Hello,
I believe you have to give us the dimensions of the lighter, in order to get an stl for production, or else you'll just get a concept design. (there are a lot of different lighters in the market)
Thanks,

Hi,
just a few questions: do you need us to model just a girl or do you need lighter case also? Can you give us approximate dimensions (width and length)? I presume relief must follow curvature of the lighter or?

Hi Jeff,

Is 3D production a type of CAD software? Or do you mean any CAD software that will work for production. If that's the case, I strongly recommend AutoCAD/SolidWorks as most manufacturers can go into production with those.

Thanks,
MacKenzie

Quick Access Sun Stations
Quick Access Sun Stations is a self service sunscreen station placed throughout outdoor venues such as theme parks, water parks, state parks, zoo's, golf courses, ski resorts, etc. The Quick Access Sun Stations provides sunscreen through a hand held device (think of a spray tanning gun) which the customer will direct and spray on themselves, in the areas where they need skin/sun protection. The station will be a 4' square footprint with hand held devices placed equal distances around the station. There should be enough space for 4 customers at a time, allowing application of sunscreen to the skin that is exposed. The machine is equipped with a method to accept credit card or mobile payments (via a mobile scan or entry of a confirmation code). The station needs to allow the customer to select the level of sunscreen protection they want (there will be 2 protection levels). Sunscreen will be stored in 2 different reservoirs which is contained internal to the unit. I am looking for a product design encompassing the features I outlined above. I would like to see a prototype of the machine mock-up, both the external (what the customer will see) and internal (what the sunscreen servicer will see). In the mock-up a small divider between stations (to prevent overspray) and a matt under the entire unit to prevent slipping should be visible. The stations will require power, access either under the machine or some place that doesn't limit the space for the number of hand held devices. A self powered station would be ideal but not sure it is entirely feasible.
Small waterproof weather sensor housing
The project is to develop a small waterproof weather monitoring button which will include a UV, humidity and temperature sensors. The button will be pairing with a mobile phone for transmitting data. This button could be used both at the beach to monitor UV exposure but also in house for room climate monitoring, We need a small electronic and sensor enclosure with the following specs: 1) Button or other (rectangular/cube/etc) similar shape 2) Small dimensions to host a 15mm x 25mm x 3mm PCB 3) Include a coin battery with an option of easy access for replacement 4) The enclosure/product should have a small protected whole for a humidity/temperature sensor (not more than 2mm diameter) 5) Include a UV sensor so access to light is needed 6) Include a Power switch/button 7) Include a led for indicating operation 8) Include a robust belt clip (or other removable clip, or/plus a magnet) built into the design 9) Waterproof design 10) A trendy design aesthetically pleasing as possible 11) we need the source solidworks files for printing on our 3D printing We intent to further work with the winning designer so as to fine-tune the design after initial testings
Sheet metal fabrication design
We are a start-up design company based in Mullingar and supported by Enterprise Ireland as a HPSU. We require an experienced solidworks engineer to complete various sheet metal components in flat sheet and folded.

Custom Mouse Design
Looking for a unique computer mouse concept that can enclose a finger wearable ring inside and has a clear opening cover. The cover acts like a see-through area for the ring and can be easily opened for the retrieval of the ring. The optimal solution would have minimum parts and design of manufacturing feasibility. The cover hinge should be sturdy to support a long lifespan. - The mouse design should have ergonomic curve geometry to rest the thumb of the users. - A compact design that can house two AAA batteries and the PCB board is required. - The bottom part should have an opening to expose the optical sensor of the mouse. - No power slide switch is needed since it is provided on the ring. When the cover is open, no electronic board should be visible Approximate dimensions – L 115mm x W 66m (as compact as possible) - LED requirement - An LED indicator needs to be provided on the mouse (see the image attached with dimensions) - Battery – Should have an opening for a battery for the replacement. - Required file format -. step *Note – The base of Finger wearable ring to be in level with the base of mouse (see the image attached)
