Product Design

Our Product Design & Development specialists at Scott Industries of Ky will help you formulate a plan that can make your conceptual ideas into reality. No matter how simple or complex your project, we can assist you to reach your product development goals. Weather you are a small entrepreneur, small business, or large corporation.

After an initial Design Review, we can help identify your priorities regarding the form, fit, and functional requirements of your project. We will automatically present you with viable options for product quality improvements, part consolidation, cost reductions and (DFM – Design for Manufacturing) suggestions that will increase efficiencies and lower your overall costs to help make you more competitive in your marketplace.

We make it easy for you to transfer your 2-D & 3-D solids models design data to us from familiar programs such as Solid Works, Pro-Engineer, AutoCAD, E-works & .Pdf Files.

We can accept most data file transfer formats:

Mold Flow Analysis

Our mold flow analysis is the ideal tool to quickly check the manufacturability of your plastic part design when the cost of change is early in the design process. We can get rapid feedback on how modifications to wall thickness, gate locations, material or geometry can affect the filling pattern and pressure and temperature distributions in the part cavity. The analysis results and detailed design advice can be used to determine the optimum part thickness and gate locations as well as to identify and eliminate cosmetic issues such as weld lines, air-traps and sink marks.

We can create and simulate plastic flow through single cavity, multi-cavity and family molds. We can optimize gate type, size and location as well as runner layout, size and cross-sectional shape. Analysis results include cycle time, clamp tonnage, and shot size, all of which help the design-to-manufacturing team size the injection molding machine, minimize cycle times and reduce manufacturing waste.
