2 It could be a blockbuster. a breakthrough. the answer. revolutionary. It s now within reach. Don t just bring your product to life, ready it for the competition. Make it truer to spec. Get it to market faster. Reach that potential with ARRK. Our full-line product development services design solutions, rapid prototyping, precision tooling and quality manufacturing lay the groundwork for our concurrent design approach. Parallel work flow. Next-step perspective. Integrated communication. Singular coordination and contact. We keep your entire vision in mind, thinking about the next step and the one after that while fine-tuning the first. It all adds up to time compression that enhances never sacrifices quality.

3 Designing for Manufacturability from Day One. Don t waste time with a faulty design. Experience the benefits of 50+ years of design expertise. Whether we collaborate with you on a design from the beginning, or simply help you spot problems before you start, our CAD experts and technical engineers will critically analyze your design and make sure that your plan makes sense in terms of speed, cost efficiency and end game manufacturability. If there is a better material choice for a component, a sizing issue that will hold up the tooling process, or a structural concern that can be improved upon, we ll help make sure that your design stays focused for manufacturability throughout the entire product development process. PARALLEL PATHS ARRK S FULL-LINE APPROACH IN ACTION A company in the airline industry developed a sleek and user-friendly design for a self check-in device. But, the design contained manufacturability challenges that their tight timeline could not afford. ARRK design engineers quickly put their full-line experience into action, determined a workable solution for manufacturability and began producing SLA prototypes and castings. These prototype parts were so functional that they were immediately placed in kiosks nationally while production tooling was being built.

4 Crafted by Technology. Finished by Hand. Showcase your idea with the most sophisticated and realistic Stereo Lithography (SLA), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), CNC and RTV casting prototypes available. We bring speed, precision and quality to your entire product development process by utilizing the latest in proven prototyping technology and materials. We also paint, finish and texture each model by hand to make certain that the color and cosmetic finish displays your passion for the future success of your product. All of these detailed efforts create a professional and precise visual representation of your idea and give your product the opportunity to shine. PARALLEL PATHS ARRK S FULL-LINE APPROACH IN ACTION A prominent recreational equipment manufacturer came to ARRK for high-impact urethane castings produced from silicone molds. Our design engineers found a type of urethane to match the intended production material, but recognized a tooling complication within the design. We quickly modified this complication for the castings and the client received fully finished, painted and hand-textured prototype parts ahead of schedule, ready for a quick tooling process and a fast trip to market.

5 Where Success Takes Shape. Accelerate your product to market with proven tooling techniques that ready you for efficient and effective production. We offer a full range of plastic-injection molding and die-cast tooling options managed by our tooling experts for consistent results you can count on. For the precision you need when you can t afford to miss, ARRK tooling is your answer. A leading telecom and contract manufacturer was developing an intricate project requiring SLA prototyping, rubber plaster molding, aluminum casting, and fully painted parts with inserts. The level of complexity in each of these individual processes was immense, creating lengthy timelines that the client just couldn t afford. But ARRK s involvement throughout the entire project allowed for next-step preparation and concurrent communication between our engineers. This approach resolved any issues before they could turn into roadblocks, and ensured a smooth project outcome.

6 Your Vision. Reached. Bring your product to completion through efficient manufacturing that ensures a fast turnaround. Whether you re looking for a short-run solution or full-run production, our injection molding and die-cast manufacturing capabilities will make sure that your product development idea is fully realized while attaining a higher product quality than you ve ever experienced before. PARALLEL PATHS ARRK S FULL-LINE APPROACH IN ACTION The market leader in MRI equipment came to ARRK looking to create a new MRI peripheral device. The initial design called for vacuum forming, but our design engineers determined that injection molding tools would be more appropriate for manufacturing due to the level of precision required. This early change allowed for a more efficient production process and enabled the customer to meet all of their initial manufacturing goals.
