THE PROCESS

THE PROCESS WITH 

Laksesystemer-logo-1

Laksesystemer identified the need for a new type of precise automatic feeder for land-based aquaculture, since current solutions were outdated and did not allow for optimal feeding procedures.

Their idea was to have a market-ready product as fast as possible so they could exploit the market gap and need for such an improved feeding technology. Therefore, they decided to partner up with Pisco Group.

Three months after the collaboration with Pisco Group - and after testing and validation - Laksesystemer launched their new product. In a short time, Laksesystemer received orders for more than 100 units of their new product, which is showing improved fish growth compared to traditional feeders.

HOW WE DID IT
TOGETHER

PHASE 1: DEFINITION

To help Laksystemer define what they needed and how to develop it, we met in Copenhagen to conduct a workshop. Together, we discussed different concepts and created preliminary 3D-models to visualize and evaluate them.

Good communication and setting up the right team were two key issues for this stage of the process. Pisco Group has significant experience within aquaculture and especially in land-based systems, while Laksesystemer had a clear vision and understanding of their new product and its application. This combination was key to safely identify the specific problems and technical requirements for this new type of technology. This resulted in the process moving quickly from a broad idea to a specifically defined problem and subsequently into the concept and prototype phases. 

PHASE 2: DEVELOPMENT

Pisco Group has in-house product developers and aquaculture specialists. This means that all required competences were available throughout the project, enabling Laksesystemer to speed up the development.

Pisco Group drafted several concept ideas for the product in 3D. This allowed for an evaluation of the pros and cons of each, as well as for an alignment between these concepts and Laksesystemer's vision. After selecting a few possibilities, Pisco Group also began a functional simulation, by recreating the operating conditions of the product in 3D. Combining that with both Pisco Group's and Laksesystemer's know-how of the industry, a final evaluation was carried out and a final idea was chosen.

PHASE 3: PROTOTYPING

Pisco Group and Laksesystemer teams went through several iterations together and improved the prototype in a matter of four weeks.

Once  the final model was chosen – and after several prototyping rounds together with the customer – we adjusted and modified different parameters of the product to improve the results of the functional simulation, which we used to assess whether the prototype would be able to address the problems that current technology presents. Given Laksesystemer's knowledge and vision, the prototyping process took only a couple of weeks.
