Model Train Design
← back
Skytrex are a long and well established model making company specialising in highly detailed and accurate model representations of trains, ships, and military vehicles for enthusiasts. As part of a MAS funded project, we were tasked with helping to update production techniques using rapid prototyping technologies.
Advanced 3D CAD modelling techniques were employed to create replica “0 Gauge” models of locomotives on SolidWorks. Final assembling, colouring and detail is completed within their own workshop. For those who know their trains we have so far completed Class 45, Deltic and 31 locomotives.
This has enabled Skytrex to produce models at large volumes using rapid prototyping technologies at the touch of a button. This has greatly reduced their labour costs, time to market and ultimately increased their profits.
