Italian Design.
“Design Driven Innovation” is a working practice aimed at enhancing problem solving and creativity; this methodology involves both the R&D department and the whole organization in order to find innovative and alternative solutions that will improve corporate brand and products range in the medium-long term.
Concept Idea.
Our designers collaborate with the engineering team to create several concepts. Our team uses the knowledge it learnt during the exploration phase, to begin ideating some quick sketches that will be later refined into full concept.
Product Design.
Our activities deal with: wich product to manufacture, where to manufacture, new materials to use, the possibility of alternative green materials, the redefinition of the customer experience, how to treat the product at the end of its life cycle etc. That’s how we manage to create Italian-design products, improve existing ones and develop high-value and high-impact applications.

Feasibility analysis, design for manufacturing.
Final concept prototypes are created. Final refinements are carried out.
Our team is highly qualified in ensuring our concepts are designed for manufacturing (DFM) in order to have a really smooth transition from prototype to manufacturing.
Prototyping, cost optimization for manufacturing.
Our Partners (all in Italy) have twenty years experience in manufacturing solutions: CAD 3D engineering, FEM analysis rapid prototyping, mould construction for injection, vacuum forming, PUR-RIM. manufacturing, injection moulding, assembly with electronics.
Design for Manufacturing.
In twenty years, AV Consulting has created a group of manufacturing partners and developed its expertise in PROTOTYPING - Additive manufacturing and Plastic - and PRODUCTION with different technologies: thermoforming, CNC, composites, injection moulding, poliurethane. Our partners ensure that idea take form and substance and are developed into successful products starting from feasibility analysis, through technical and economic evaluation, to quick prototyping and production.
Six phases.
Kickoff
The team receives the request of the component to be realized with all the details on technical applications, functionals, volumes, target cost.
Cost analysis
Our team develops a detailed analysis and select the appropiate mix of material and technologies.
Prototyping
AV Consulting realizes the prototypes while keeping the customer continually updated on the realization phases.
Quality Control
Optimization for manufacturing
Deliveries: technical files for production and final cost report.
