Animation

3D product animation services for technical products.

A short film that shows how your product works, what is inside it and why it is built that way. Made from your CAD, so every part is where your engineers put it.

One product, shown properly, in under a minute.

Built for product pages, sales decks, distributor portals and the screen on your stand.

  • 360 and hero movesA clean turntable and camera moves that show form, ports and mounting points.
  • X-ray and cutawayThe housing fades and the working principle is visible: spindle, seal, sensing element.
  • Exploded sequenceParts separate in assembly order and return, with callouts for the features that matter.
  • Callouts and dataAnimated labels for ratings, materials and options, in your typeface and colours.
  • Versions16:9, 9:16 and 1:1, with and without text, plus a silent loop for trade shows.

What a product animation does that a photo cannot

Technical products are bought on what is inside them. A photograph of a sensor, an actuator or a pump shows a housing; an animation opens it. In 30 seconds a buyer sees the sealing concept, the drive train or the flow path, and a distributor in another country can explain it without a sales engineer in the room.

Because the film is built from your released CAD, there is no artistic guess about what the inside looks like. Our engineers read the assembly first and decide which parts move, which fade and which stay, so the principle is shown correctly.

Typical uses

  • Product pages and landing pages, where a short loop replaces a paragraph of explanation
  • Sales presentations and tenders, as proof of a design advantage
  • Distributor and dealer portals, in several languages from one master
  • Trade show screens, as a silent loop that explains itself
  • Launch campaigns before the first production unit exists

One model, several films

Once the product is prepared, stills, cutaways and further films come from the same model. A catalogue image set and a 30 second film ordered together cost less than the two ordered separately, and next year's variant is a small job. If the product is a full machine or a line, see industrial 3D animation services.

What it costs

A 20 to 45 second film of a component or compact product is $2,400 and a feature film of a machine is $3,200, with the CAD preparation, storyboard approval and all three aspect ratios included.

Prices.

Published, fixed and with CAD preparation included. Prices are for one machine or a compact line; components cost less and large multi-machine lines more.

How much does a 3D product animation cost?

A 20 to 45 second film of a component or compact product is $2,400, a feature film of a machine is $3,200 and a 60 second product film is $4,800. CAD preparation, one revision round per stage and full commercial usage rights are included.

How long should a product animation be?

For a product page or a trade show loop, 20 to 45 seconds. Longer films suit sales presentations and training, where the viewer has chosen to watch.

Can you add voiceover and subtitles?

Yes. Films are delivered voiceover-ready with subtitle files in two languages. Recorded voiceover is quoted separately with the voice talent of your choice.

Do you need the physical product?

No. CAD is enough. A reference photo helps us match finish and colour.

Will the animation be technically correct?

Yes. Our mechanical engineers read the assembly before production and check the film before delivery.
