Evolution Power Tools

Background

Evolution Power Tools are a UK company based in Sheffield with over 25 years’ experience in the power tool market. Optima have been a supplier to Evolution for over a decade, initially helping with the design of innovative power tool product concepts.

Approach

Recently we have been providing design engineering resource on the Macallister and JCB mitre-saw. Optima assisted in the design of various elements of the tool including the handle. The handle is comprised of complex surfaces that enable the user to use with either left or right hand, making it a unique proposition in a marketplace, eager for innovation.

Outcome

A fully defined set of CAD data for the production of the saw.
