Challenge
As part of a product launch for two new dishwashing systems, our long-standing partner Winterhalter approached us to create high-quality visual marketing content for the highly technical products. In order to ensure efficient and sustainable content production, the design data was to be used as the basis for the creation of a wide range of marketing content using CGI, e.g. numerous image motifs for the trade fair and online presence, animations to illustrate product functions and an interactive product sales configurator. The particular challenge was to present the highly complex technical products in a photorealistic, comprehensible and visually convincing way.
Solution
High-end CGI visual content with the aim of convincing product and marketing communication for the successful marketing of the new Winterhalter MT series conveyor dishwashers.
- 3D product visualizations
High-quality product visualizations of all product functionalities, details and illustrations - Vivid product animations
Sales-promoting product visualizations in moving images and explanatory animations - Interactive product sales configurator
Virtual and intuitive product configurator
The online product configurator can be called up directly in the internal Winterhalter infrastructure via single sign-on access for every sales employee. The sales team can quickly and easily present the product features to the customer and illustrate the important product functions using the integrated animations. To give potential customers an immediate idea, a possible machine configuration can be put together quickly and easily in just a few steps.
The modular structure of the MTR/MTF machine series is available in a playful form with the real configuration logics – the customer immediately gets an idea of the possible solution. The product can be viewed from all sides with a real-time 3D view. The process is rounded off by a PDF data sheet, which can be sent to the customer digitally immediately and summarizes the respective, individual machine configuration with a product-specific generated image and the most important key data such as washing capacity per hour, number of tanks and various dimensions in a clear form.
