01 / CUSTOMER PROBLEM
Make design decisions visible
A physical clay model lets the team read reflections, gaps and transitions at the intended scale before a board, paste or composite tool is committed.
Product family
Industrial Clay
Industrial Clay is the professional product term for automotive styling and soft model work. It is a separate product family from model boards and hard tooling materials.
Engineering view / Industrial clay
Shorten the loop between digital styling and physical review
Industrial clay gives designers a fast, tactile way to add, remove and refine a full-scale surface while checking highlight lines, shut lines, transitions and panel relationships. It is a styling medium, not a substitute for a structural mold.
02 / SELECTION LOGIC
Match the review method
Use the grade and working practice suited to the required surface response, build-up, removal, scanning and review temperature. iClay 61M and 61H should be selected from their own TDS rather than by color or feel alone.
03 / PROCESS CHECKPOINTS
Keep the surface repeatable
Control the armature or substrate, working temperature, layer adhesion, smoothing, edge definition, scan or measurement hand-off and the way recovered clay is stored.
04 / RELEASE CHECK
Close the digital loop
After a design review, capture the approved geometry and record the changes before converting the model into a board, paste, mold or machining program.
Capture approved styling changes before conversion.Share geometry, temperature or hardness target, process route, quantity and finish requirement. The matching EPTEK TDS remains the authority for grade-specific values and handling limits.Contact us ↗
