Develop 3D magazine features Amalgam – twice

Amalgam director Mike Harvey features in this month’s edition of Develop 3D, a publication dedicated to 3D printing, additive manufacture and prototypes. The article touches on Amalgam’s involvement with the Schwinn Folding Bike and the importance of physical prototypes. Also, our client and friend Tom Lawton graced the front page with his Bubblescope, a product our makers had a hand in designing mechanisms for during the first stages of prototyping.

 

It goes without saying that physical prototypes are enormously important to the design process. In many cases digital models simply aren’t proof enough of concept – Kickstarter, which has recently launched in the UK, holds as a key policy that before seeking finance, one must present photos of a physical prototype, 3D printed or otherwise. Amalgam has a strong history of helping fledgling projects through these early stages, and right through to manufacture. Take a look through Our Work to see some of our success stories.
