Case Study: Tyba

Despite its simple appearance, Turn consists of over 35 meticulously designed components, each requiring precise manufacturing processes to ensure quality and functionality. With customers already waiting to get the product in hand, time was critical for the team at Tyba to get actionable quotes fast and tooling underway.

Unfortunately for Oz Andrews, Chief Design Engineer at Tyba, sourcing quotes for injection moulding proved a challenge.

“The inability of some of the injection moulding suppliers to quote in any reasonable time frame was staggering. The range of prices from one supplier to the next meant I couldn’t understand the true cost to manufacture my parts or if I was being ripped off, explained Oz.

Thanks to Gemoiq, Oz was able to get a quick, fair and actionable quote that would allow him to proceed rapidly with production: "Geomiq gave us an injection moulding quote in 24 hours—it was more competitive than anyone else and we were able to proceed with it the next day."

In addition to making the quoting process simpler and faster, our intelligent platform has helped Tyba halve the cost of their P20 Steel tooling, reduce their CapEx and prove viability before going to mass production.

“It was a streamlined and stress-free process, once we’d signed off the samples we were able to get our first 1,000 units underway, which was really exciting”, said Oz.

• Tyba got an actionable and affordable injection moulding quote in under 24 hours
• Geomiq provided the most competitive price and helped Tyba halve the cost of P20 Steel tooling
• In-depth DFM analysis, tooling and sample approval were all completed in under 20 days.
• Once the samples were signed off, Tuba quickly got their first 1,000 units into production.
• Tyba now places quarterly orders with Geomiq to meet the continuously growing demand for Turn.
