■ Background of Service Provision: The Dilemma of "Presentation Models" in the Construction Industry
In residential design and construction, "architectural models" are highly effective sales tools for accurately conveying the completed image to clients.
However, many construction companies and design offices faced the following challenges:
Resource Shortage: "Busy with regular operations, unable to secure time or human resources for in-house manual production."
Cost and Delivery Time: "Outsourcing to external vendors takes a long time and is expensive."
To solve these challenges, our company developed a new model production service that utilizes the latest 3D printing technology to achieve low cost, short delivery times, and high quality.
■ Three Features of "Shapee"
1. Overwhelmingly Speedy Delivery and Cost Reduction
By utilizing the latest 3D printers, we have achieved significant reductions in production costs and shorter delivery times compared to traditional manual outsourcing by craftsmen.
Price Estimate: From 35,000 yen (varies depending on options)
Delivery Time Estimate: Approximately 1 week after submitting complete design drawings
*For customers within Hakodate City, particularly prompt delivery is possible.
2. Just "Send Drawings or CAD Data" + Pre-confirmation on a Dedicated Site
No specialized knowledge of 3D data creation is required. Simply send us your usual 2D CAD data or PDF drawings, and we will handle everything from 3D data conversion to output in a one-stop process. Furthermore, we offer a "function to view the planned 3D model on a dedicated site" before the model is completed. This allows for easy confirmation from a PC or smartphone, which can also be used for pre-sharing images with clients.

3. Exquisite Finish and Outstanding Cost Performance (Size Comparison with Other Companies' Products)
The precise and accurate models unique to 3D printing facilitate smooth image sharing with clients. Compared to traditional outsourced handmade models, it is possible to produce "larger and more impressive sizes at the same price range." This helps reduce costs, enhance impact during presentations, contribute to improved customer satisfaction, strong differentiation from competitors, and increased contract closing rates. (Currently, it has been pre-introduced to customers in Hakodate City and has received high evaluations.)
