À propos de Com Plates Vaisselle en bois

Com Plates est un produit issu d'un procédé de fabrication unique qui applique au bois des techniques de travail des métaux perfectionnées par des artisans mouleurs qualifiés. Cette technologie permet de surmonter les inconvénients courants des produits en bois, tels qu'un poids et un encombrement excessifs, ouvrant ainsi de nouvelles possibilités pour la vaisselle en bois. En soumettant les déchets de bois à un usinage de précision, le produit atteint une finesse et une légèreté remarquables. Son design magnifiquement imbriqué permet un rangement compact, tout en constituant un objet d'art saisissant qui attire l'attention dans n'importe quel espace de vie.

Propriétés Uniques: Com Plates Wooden Tableware confronts the fundamental challenges of woodworking, achieving ultra-thin walls, ensuring dimensional stability, and maintaining high machining precision. Drawing on expertise developed in mold manufacturing, the project redefines what is technically possible with wood. Although woodworking and metalworking may appear fundamentally opposed, both disciplines ultimately share the same objective: identifying the most appropriate process for the material at hand. By setting aside conventional assumptions, the design arrives at a refined and precise form that expands the expressive and technical potential of wooden tableware.
Dimensions & Emballage: Size is Height 170mm x Width 250mm x Length 34mm. Weight varies depending on the type of wood, but each plate weighs between 29 grams and 39 grams. This product are designed to be stacked, and even when stacked 21 high, the thickness is only 104mm.
Mots-Clés: tableware, wooden, very thin, ultra lightweight, compact storage, compact stacking
Technologie de Production: Many wood products were handmade or primarily processed using two dimensional machining. While 3D machining has been introduced in recent years, simply machining the material with a machine risks damage during processing unless it has a certain thickness. However, by embedding the material into a mold for machining, processing is possible not only at a thinness of 1.5mm but even at 1mm. Furthermore, surfaces precision machined through programming can be stacked with minimal gaps. This enables the creation of wooden tableware specialized for stacking, opening up a new market for wooden products.
Défi de Conception: Using wood carving to shape blocks into extremely thin sections, rather than assembling thin boards, proved extremely difficult. Expansion and contraction vary with temperature and humidity, causing warping and cracking after processing. While some tree species are more suitable than others, finding them among scrap wood is challenging. The solution lies in creating numerous prototypes to explore the optimal processing method.
Recherche: Com Plates Wooden Tableware explores how waste wood can be transformed into a high added value material through design and advanced processing. By positioning the objects not only as functional tableware but also as collectible, art like pieces, the project broadens public interest in upcycling and material reuse. While the conventional approach has been to enhance wood by resinizing its surface, this research reverses the logic, demonstrating that wood itself can serve as the base material for products typically associated with resin or plastic, achieving comparable thinness and precision. In doing so, the project proposes an alternative material narrative that elevates discarded wood into a refined, contemporary medium.
Inspiration: Com Plates Wooden Tableware rethinks the limitations traditionally associated with wooden products, beginning with weight. While reducing thickness might seem like an obvious solution, conventional woodworking techniques impose clear constraints. Drawing inspiration from precision metalworking, the design achieves an ultra thin profile of just 1.5 mm, without compromising structural integrity. Thinning wood typically introduces risks such as cracking or warping, yet a proprietary processing method overcomes these challenges through heightened manufacturing precision. This same refinement also allows the plates to stack compactly, combining lightness, durability, and practicality in a quietly innovative form.

Flux Opérationnel: Com Plates utilizes waste and scrap materials. Items destined for disposal are transformed into value added products. This processing technology is not a secret; anyone can learn it. If the entire woodworking industry applies this processing technology to various products, it can reduce wood waste and contribute to preventing global warming.
Brevets: Technology should not be hidden. It advances and improves through open sharing.
It is desirable to compete with each other's technologies without being bound by patents.
