With over 35 years of experience, CRiMP‑TECH has built a strong reputation as a trusted supplier across the Asia‑Pacific region, offering precision tooling, calibration services, and technical support.
The Challenges
CRiMP-TECH needed a transport and storage solution that could protect high-value tooling while maintaining organisation and accountability throughout storage and transit. Their previous packaging solutions fell short: tools were not securely held in place, presentation was inconsistent, and there was a risk of damage during handling or transportation. The lack of an organised system also made it difficult to track and account for each item efficiently, potentially impacting operational workflows and customer satisfaction.
The Solution
OSAAP Australia worked with CRiMP-TECH to design a tailored solution that met their strict protection, organisation, and presentation requirements.
Each tool was scanned using precise imaging techniques and processed using our Blue Shadow CAD software to create a high-density shadow board using foam from Zotefoams, custom-fit to every instrument. Laser etching was applied to identify each tool clearly and ensure consistent placement.
The completed shadow board was housed in a rugged Pelican case, chosen for its durability, watertight properties, and ease of handling. This combination of high-density foam and protective casing created a system that kept all tools secure, visible, and immediately usable, whether in storage or during transit.
The Result
The completed solution delivered immediate improvements in presentation, protection, and accountability. Over time, CRiMP-TECH experienced reduced replacement costs, improved transport reliability, and greater operational efficiency when moving and handling critical tooling.
“At Crimp-Tech Australia, we only offer the highest quality tooling for aerospace and defence, and we demand the highest quality foam for our custom-made kits to protect our customers’ investments. This is why we use OSAAP Australia for their high-quality work to ensure that the end-user gets the highest possible protection for their tooling.”
Specialised Tooling FAQs
How to transport tools without damage?
Custom foam is the most efficient way of transporting tools without damage. Shock-absorbing and custom-cut, foam inserts are designed to fit each item perfectly. This allows no room for movement during transport and handling, reducing the risk of damage and costly replacements.
We keep losing tools during transport. How can we solve this?
Custom foam inserts are the most effective solution for preventing tool loss during storage and transport. Each insert is cut to match the shape of every tool, creating a designated location for each item. This makes it obvious when tools are missing, and ensures equipment is returned to the right place instead of being left behind.
What's the best way to organise specialised tools?
The best way to organise specialised tools is with custom foam inserts. Each tool is assigned a precision-cut location, making equipment easy to find, use, and return. Less time is spent searching for equipment, inventory checks are faster, and your equipment is professionally presented and always ready to go.
