Some say that a hero is the one who save the world, like Batman, Spiderman, and Iron Man. Some say that a hero is a person that you look up to, and you will work hard and try to be like. Overall, hero is one of biggest inspirations to life, which brings greater good and endless positivity. Have you ever dreamed of being a hero in real life?

Part 1. Unleash the Hero Dream

Jacob, is one of us that has a desire to feel like a hero in real life, and he turns the desire into reality. He started HeroTech where creates hero technology through design engineering and believes in the ability of technology to inspire and empower people. To unleash the hero dream, he made the first project – the MAGNUS Functional Thread Shooter Watch.

From scratch, CAD to electronics development to mechanism design, Jacob and his team created the MAGNUS after years of private research and development. “With MAGNUS, be the hero of your own story.”

The MAGNUS consists of several key components, the reload electronics, the thread, the watch cartridges. The reload electronics helps shoot out and retract Spider Wire thread smoothly. Swapping between the thread and watch cartridges, you can shoot out the wire, but also check time as the watch cartridge lights up in a unique pattern of LED bars.

To ensure a high-quality and aesthetic surface finish, precision CNC machining was applied to manufacture those key components. All components are encased in aircraft-grade aluminum for protection.

CNC Machining Services

To take the quality of the thread shooter to the next level, and have the body be entirely CNC machined, Jacob decided to try online CNC machining services and trusted Wenext. Wenext offers online instant quotation that user can get the machining cost by simply upload 3D design files on the platform. There is no hidden cost and complex procedures. “Working with Wenext has been a great experience. The online quoting platform is extremely convenient and helps us cost parts quickly. The value for the parts and services is also top-notch.”

CNC Custom Parts

The thread shooter has come a long way from prototypes to batch production. 3D Printing was utilized to design verification and structural optimization, while CNC machining improved the quality, assembly accuracy, and surface finish. Wenext strives to deliver specific manufacturing solutions and personnel support to meet customer needs. Precision CNC machining guarantees the desired tolerance and geometric specifications. Seamless communications ensure product improvement and manufacturing efficiency. “We are very happy with the quality of the CNC parts as well as the level of personal support they have given us. The personal support is great and it is comforting to know that any issues can be resolved and worked through.”

CNC Surface Finishing

“The thread shooter performs to our specifications and we have received good reviews from our customers. They really enjoy the quality finish of the parts!”

Minor change could lead to re-prototyping and re-verification. However, we made samples time after time to achieve desired cosmetic effect on the final products. To ensure smoothness, color stability and part accuracy, our surface finishing was applied, including sandblasting, coloring, anodizing, and polishing. With our surface finishing capability, it is easy and fast to make parts that require highly aesthetic appearance.

“Overall, we are quite satisfied with Wenext and will continue to use Wenext for prototype development and production. The value, convenience, speed and customer service help us in many ways for our operations.”
