practical example

Custom-made Hairdressing scissors a master hairdresser

A moment of inattention and it's already happened: an accident that leads to incapacity for work and thus throws your life plans into disarray. This is what happened to a master hairdresser who lost the ring finger of her right hand. Although surgery allowed the little finger to be moved to the place of the ring finger, it was not enough to cut hair.

The result: Ms. W. was threatened with lifelong incapacity to work.

conceptualization

The ergonomic requirements and feasibility were examined. It quickly became clear that a customized solution was feasible. Drawing on their many years of experience, Arnd Jendick (Head of Production) and Michael Torgau (Design Engineer) developed a suitable pair of scissors.

implementation

Within a few weeks, an initial plastic sample was produced to test the fit. After specific adjustments, it was clear that the solution met the ergonomic requirements. The final product was then manufactured from steel.

feasibility study

From the first sample to the perfect fit

Just four weeks later, Ms. W. had her first plastic sample in her hands.

"That was the first time I felt truly understood," she recalls. "Others always said, 'Just cut with another finger.' But I didn't want to just cut hair. I wanted to work at the same high level as before the accident. Cutting hair is my passion."

Development and design

The fitting revealed that these scissors would do the job. After a few minor adjustments, the final scissors could be milled from steel.

Genuine custom manufacturing, made possible by modern CNC technology and skilled craftsmanship.
