The art of model making has evolved into an important aspect of economic growth. Models for proposed condominium developments, new cars and household products are used during presentations to investors and the general public. A 3-D representation of potential projects can help a company determine safety issues, appropriate branding and functionality, without wasting money on fully produced items.

Assessing Industrial Needs for Model Making

Architectural firms have been using scale models of upcoming projects throughout the last century. A group of investors who are asked to finance developments can see 3-D versions of initial blueprints before writing checks. Many architectural firms hire model-making companies to save money on machining while ensuring precision models.

Retailers concerned about meeting local and national product-safety standards use 3-D models to assuage inspectors. These models can range in size from water bottles to car-shaped beds with accurate detailing. It is important for retailers and producers of consumable goods to purchase these models in volume to cast wide nets during pre-production.

The automotive industry relies on 3-D model making to remain competitive in the global market. Scale models of cars, trucks and utility vehicles are sent to dealerships and car shows to market new products. The appearance and functionality of individual car parts are represented in models sent to inspectors, automotive journalists and investors.
