Industrial Origami’s Patented Sheet Metal Folding Technology Provides Significant Value to Manufacturers
3
► Reduced material content and part counts ► Reduced joining and fastening ► Improved quality through greater precision
Decreases Part Costs…
► Low fold forces eliminates the need for expensive “monument” equipment ► Significantly lower tooling investments for new products and prototyping ► Reduces cost of geographic expansion and can return fabrication to developed regions
► Shorter Supply Chains ► Ship and store in the “flat” ► Fabricate and assemble at different locations
Decreases Logistics Costs…
Decreases Capital Requirements…
► Radically improved shipping densities and reduced carbon footprint ► Reduced material content requirements and resource consumption ► Enables material design freedom and upcyclable materials
Decreases Environmental Impacts…
