Kabitos approached Atlantic Manufacturing Solutions with an early 3D printed prototype of the Sieve portable ashtray, a compact consumer product designed to separate ash from usable material through an integrated sieve mechanism. While the prototype demonstrated the core concept, the design required significant refinement to become a manufacturable consumer product. The objective was to transform the idea into a durable, user-friendly product suitable for scalable production while maintaining a clean, portable form factor.
AMS served as the engineering partner responsible for redesigning the original prototype into a production-ready product. Our work focused on refining the mechanical architecture, simplifying the component structure, and optimizing the design for injection molding and scalable manufacturing. This included redesigning parts for manufacturability, improving assembly methods, selecting appropriate materials, and preparing the design for production tooling.
During development, several industrial design concepts were explored to balance usability, aesthetics, and manufacturability. These concepts evaluated variations in the product’s form factor, sieve geometry, and user interaction to determine the most effective configuration. The exploration phase allowed the client to compare multiple design directions before converging on the final design that best supported both product functionality and manufacturing constraints.



Following concept selection, AMS developed refined prototypes to validate the updated design and ensure the product functioned as intended. These prototypes allowed the team to test the sieve mechanism, evaluate ergonomics, and confirm part fit and assembly before committing to production tooling. Iterative prototyping helped resolve key design details and ensured the final configuration was ready for scalable manufacturing.
The original prototype provided by the client was a proof-of-concept 3D printed design that was not suitable for production. AMS redesigned the product architecture to support injection molding, introducing manufacturable part geometries, proper wall thicknesses, and assembly features required for scalable production. The result was a refined design capable of being produced reliably while maintaining the original product concept.
