# Volcano Studio

> Product design and engineering studio based in Turin (Torino), Italy. We design and build electronics enclosures, custom assembly jigs and fixtures, interactive devices and functional prototypes, from concept to small-series production.

Studio di product design e ingegneria a Torino. Progettiamo e realizziamo scocche e involucri per schede elettroniche, dime di posizionamento e centraggio su misura per l'assemblaggio, dispositivi interattivi e prototipi funzionali, dal concept alla produzione in piccola serie.

Sectors: Automotive, Industrial, Healthcare, R&D. Languages: Italian, English. Clients and partners include Reply, Arduino, Politecnico di Torino, BasicNet, Fablab Torino, Italdesign.

What we do:
- Industrial and product design
- Mechanical design and engineering (parametric CAD)
- Enclosures and housings for electronic boards (DIN rail, IP52, snap-fit, modular shells)
- Custom assembly jigs, fixtures and centering jigs for production lines
- Rapid prototyping: 3D printing (PETG, TPU, SLA resin), CNC milling
- Small-series production (e.g. silicone moulds)
- Interactive installations and exhibition devices
- Research and development, proof of concept for research projects

Cosa facciamo:
- Design industriale e di prodotto
- Progettazione meccanica e ingegnerizzazione (CAD parametrico)
- Scocche, involucri e contenitori per schede elettroniche (guida DIN, IP52, chiusura a scatto, scocche modulari)
- Dime di posizionamento, dime di centraggio, maschere e attrezzature di montaggio su misura
- Prototipazione rapida: stampa 3D (PETG, TPU, resina SLA), fresatura CNC
- Produzione in piccola serie (es. stampi in silicone)
- Installazioni interattive e dispositivi per fiere ed eventi
- Ricerca e sviluppo, proof of concept per progetti di ricerca
