3D printed watch in titanium
Cooperation Raytech – Twikit
Twikit- smartwatch configurator
Twikit, specialized in customization solutions, developed an online smartwatch configurator. The online tool (runs on all digital devices) makes it possible to customize smartwatches.
For example, the shape of the watch case can be adjusted in order to become a rather sportive/adventurous vs. classic/traditional look. Additional customization such as names, texts or surface textures can easily be added thanks to the configurator.
Raytech- production of 3D printed smartwatches
Once the online configuration is finished, the digital print file (STL) is automatically generated and sent to the 3D printing facility of Raytech. After printing & carefully finishing the case, the smartwatch is ready for assembly. The watches are made out of titanium which make them light and comfortable to wear.
Family of the future
The 3D printed watch is created for the ‘Family of the future‘- project, an initiative of Flam3D. The aim of the project was to stimulate collaboration between Flemish companies with an interest in 3D printing.
The 3D printed smartwatch is a nice example of the possible impact of cooperation between two companies with different core activities. Combining competences of different companies can relatively easily lead to new and innovative ideas & projects.
