Bicycle Helmet

Precision at Scale: The 75% Helmet Prototype

When a university student needed to bring a complex Bicycle Helmet design to life, they turned to HA3D to bridge the gap between their CAD model and a physical presentation.

The Request: 75% Scale

At the client's request, we scaled the design to exactly 75% of its original size. This custom scaling was a strategic choice, providing a highly detailed, portable model that was perfect for academic review and gallery showcase while maintaining every intricate design feature.

The HA3D Solution

Scaling a technical safety device requires absolute accuracy to ensure the design's proportions remain true to the original engineering.

Proportional Accuracy: We maintained a strict $1:1$ ratio of the original design's geometry, ensuring every aerodynamic vent and strap mount was perfectly represented at the smaller scale.

Capturing Complexity: Our high-resolution printing captured the sharp, sweeping curves and internal airflow channels crucial to the student’s design thesis.

Ready for Presentation: The result was a professional-grade model that clearly demonstrated the helmet’s ergonomics and aesthetic to the university panel.
