Case Study: Lampix achieves 500 injection-molded beta units in 4 weeks with Fictiv

How Lampix used Fictiv as an experienced injection molding partner to support their lean hardware group

Lampix, maker of an augmented reality projector in a lamp form factor, faced a lean hardware team focused mainly on software and struggled to find suppliers willing to run low-volume injection molding for their beta product. Hardware Lead Dzmitry Varhan needed a partner to manage overseas manufacturers, provide manufacturability guidance, and deliver a 500-unit run quickly—challenges that led Lampix to engage Fictiv after finding Fictiv’s content and resources useful.

Fictiv matched Lampix with a vetted injection-molding partner in China, provided detailed DFM feedback and technical review, and coordinated post-processing (heat-staked inserts, EMI coating) and material selection (UL-94 flame‑retardant ABS). Fictiv delivered T1 samples in 21 days and 500 injection-molded beta units in four weeks, matching competitor lead times while beating their price, easing Lampix’s supply-chain burden and helping them pass EMI certification.
