Scope first
Deliverables, timing, revisions and fees are agreed before production.
Product / Product modelling & mold development
One lens. A repeatable surface.
A hexagonal lens master develops into a repeatable negative-mold system, with two spacing options, registration pins and seam-test coupons prepared for prototype review.
01 / The design question
How can one small component become a repeatable surface without losing continuity at the tile seams?
02 / The approach
- Develop a positive lens master from the supplied visual references, separating the agreed footprint from reference-based depth and profile estimates.
- Repeat the master into negative-mold tiles and compare two spacing options within the available print-bed envelope.
- Coordinate tile seams, registration pins and small test coupons before committing to a full-sheet prototype.
03 / Deliverables
- Lens-master model
- Two negative-mold spacing options
- Registration pins and seam-test coupons
- STL, 3MF and Blender delivery files
- CAD-style review drawings and model previews
What the work makes clear
The study connects a single component, a printable tile and a larger assembly through one consistent modelling system.
