Tips

Rapid prototyping is a very useful process that allows you to speed up the process of testing, designing and validating new product ideas before you launch them on the market. Thanks to this, you can quickly create your tests, using different types of materials, although plastics such as ABS, polycarbonate or polypropylene are the most

The word “novelty” has always been part of toy catalogues as a lure for children and parents. But novelty is also very present in toy design and manufacturing, a sector that innovates every year by following trends in other industries and creating its own. For example, advances in electronics and computing in recent years have

Have you ever wondered how so many toys and other products are mass-produced with such precision? The answer to this question is simple: thanks to the use of moulds. Moulds are essential tools for creating multiple identical copies of a design by injecting the desired material (plastic, metal and others) by different processes and types

Do you want to know what kind of materials exist and which ones they are? In the field of industrial design and comprehensive development, it is essential to understand how different materials react to certain situations and applications in order to choose those that are best suited to specific designs. At Atienza y Climent, as

It is undeniable that the toy manufacturing industry has a large environmental impact, as its production is massive and uses plastic as the main material. In 2022, the Instituto Tecnológico del Producto Infantil y de Ocio (AIJU) conducted a survey on sustainability and toys in several European countries. Almost 3,000 families in Spain, Italy, Germany,

If you have ever wondered how those complex-shaped plastic parts are made and how they are so strong, you have probably appreciated the result of the rotomoulding process. This manufacturing technique, also known as rotational moulding, has gained popularity in various industries thanks to its unique advantages and versatility in creating plastic products. At Atienza

The processes used to change the shape of materials involve the use of mechanical or thermal forces to deform them into the desired shape. In the case of plastics, transformation processes usually involve heating the material to a semi-liquid state, and applying a force to mould it. This process can be controlled with great precision,

Rendering has become a powerful tool for visualisation in a variety of sectors, from architecture and design to entertainment and advertising. It allows the manufacture of much more precise and higher quality items. Therefore, from Atienza & Climent, as manufacturers of products, in this article we talk about the basic concepts, benefits, applications, and how

Mass production is a procedure widely used in industry for mass production of products in large quantities in the most efficient way. Chain production is characterised by the standardisation of processes, the repetition of tasks and the use of specialised machinery. This production system seems to be closely linked to the automobile industry, although it

Zamak is one of the most widely used materials for the manufacture of a large number of everyday objects. In fact, this raw material has replaced brass in a large number of products, largely because it is cheaper and offers the same or better results than the latter. The production of zamak pieces allows the
