![]() Realize is fortunate to have a solid working relationship with Auto Research Center. Engineering disciplines consist of electrical/circuit design, RF/wireless design, software/firmware design, mechanical design, human factors design, and testing/validation with a strong emphasis on products utilizing embedded microprocessors and DSPs. Indesign is an engineering design services firm with a proven track record of helping companies develop new electronic devices. ![]() We are going to follow where technology leads. When we started we were almost all wired types of products, now half of our business is wireless. The technologies have changed dramatically over time. We started exclusively in the telecommunications area and now we are into many different industries. Our company has been in business for 16 years and it’s been on an evolutionary path. Where is your business headed in the future? Speed and quality are the two things that are most important to us and we get both of those from Realize. Speed isn’t everything, the other thing that is very important to us is quality. We have received high quality parts using the prototyping capabilities of Realize. Realize has been extremely good to Indesign in delivering parts very quickly. We have very rapid product realization intervals. Everything that we do here has to be done very quickly. How has your experience working with Realize been? We have worked with Realize on a wide variety of projects- from medical to consumer electronics, industrial, and they have provided us with parts to support our clients in many different markets. What types of projects do you partner with Realize on? We need to very quickly get a physical embodiment of what we have designed so we can run that through our testing process. The critical need that we have is to get those rapid prototype parts. The Stereolithography models, the cast models and sometimes the rubber parts are needed for the physical elements of our prototype. Those working prototypes include the kinds of things that Realize can provide. It’s absolutely critical that we get working prototypes of the designs for us to validate the design. As soon as that is completed we need to take that design which exists in our CAD systems and turn it into a working prototype. In the front end of the process we are working on the development of requirements and concepts with the client, then we move on to the detailed mechanical design. In our product development process we go through several steps. ![]() How is Rapid Prototyping used by your company? We create all the design information for a product then send it to a factory for manufacturing. That means we do the mechanical design, the electrical design, and embedded software design. We develop a wide variety of electronic products for our customers. We are an electronic product design engineering company. We talked with Jerry Gotway, CEO of Indesign, to find out how their business uses Additive Manufacturing and where they are headed in the future. We are excited and proud of the long relationship we have established with this fantastic company. Realize works extensively with Indesign on a wide variety of projects.

QuickCast may be the alternative solution for you, and Realize stands ready and eager to help you with your next investment casting project. Time and cost savings can be significant as compared to traditional wax patterns, especially for complex geometries. QuickCast can provide a smooth and accurate pattern that can be ready for you in days. Not only does this give the pattern rigidity, but it also allows the structure to collapse upon itself during the burnout process, minimizing the risk of a cracked shell. A Quickcast pattern is an SLA model, but differs in that it has a thin skin that surrounds a matrixed internal structure. Utilizing a highly specialized build-style known as QuickCast, foundries have access to an alternative solution to traditional wax patterns, which can be expensive and time consuming to produce. ![]() Using Stereolithography 3D Printing technology, more commonly referred to as SLA, Realize has the ability and expertise to create investment casting patterns for foundries.
