Case Study: Animax Designs achieves fast, reliable delivery of high-precision parts with Fictiv

Animax Designs partnered with Fictiv to get reliable, high-quality parts at speed

Animax Designs, a Nashville-based leader in industrial robotics and theme-park animatronics, faced the challenge of sourcing reliably durable, precision parts that could withstand decades of heavy use (designed for ~20 years at 16 hours/day and tens of millions of motion cycles). To meet tight timelines and exacting tolerances, Animax partnered with Fictiv for on-demand, high-quality machined parts and fast, responsive support.

Fictiv delivered scalable, fast-turn CNC machined parts complete with inspection reports showing actual dimensions on the prints, plus quick customer service, enabling Animax to order from one part up to thousands as needed. As a result, Animax produced hundreds of precision parts extremely quickly, met the longevity and tolerance requirements for multiple high-function animatronics, and accomplished work they previously thought unmanageable — all thanks to Fictiv.
