Formax turns toy designs into manufacturing orders
A digital manufacturing platform for collectible toys that describes a workflow from design evaluation and quoting to factory assignment and delivery tracking.
- For
- Collectible-toy designers and brands planning production
- Worth noticing
- The listed checks cover wall thickness, draft angle, parting and stress, with suggested revisions rather than only a pass-or-fail result.
Field notes
The workflow accepts sketches, rendered images, or 3D files, and the page says a 3ds Max plugin can submit designs without changing the designer’s usual workflow. Prototype routes are matched to purpose: 3D printing for appearance checks, CNC for structural checks, and silicone molding for small-batch trials. The site also describes keeping approved prototype parameters, work orders, and inspection standards for subsequent production.
