About Gradient Ramp Gradient Ramp

Book Text: Gradient Ramp itepi rinonamira rakagadzirirwa kuita kuti mucheto wakachekwa uwanikwe nyore. Tepi yakajairika inoonekera iri tete zvikuru, saka mucheto unowanzo omerwa kuwanikwa mushure mekushandiswa. Gradient Ramp ine ruvara runoshanduka-shanduka (gradient) uchitevedza urefu hwayo. Kana tepi ikachekwa, zvisungo zvinoita mutsauko wemavara unoonekwa pamutaro wekuchekwa. Mushandisi anotsvaga nzvimbo ine mutsauko mukuru wemavara ozvambura tepi kubva panzvimbo iyoyo. Tepi iyi yakagadzirwa nefiramu yePVC isina plasticizer, izvo zvinopa kudzivirira kwakanaka kuchando chakawandisa, kunamatira kwakasimba pakutanga, uye kuchekwa nyore.

About the Mubairo weSimbi we A' Design Award

Mubairo weSimbi we A' Design Award wakahwinwa ne Gradient Ramp Gradient Ramp, rukudzo runokudzwa runopiwa kumadhizaini akanaka anozadzisa zvinodiwa zvehunyanzvi neyeindasitiri zvinotarisirwa kuzvigadzirwa zvakagadzirwa zvakanaka. Vakunda veSimbi vanoratidza unyanzvi hukuru, hunyanzvi hwakakwirira, kunzwisisa kwevakachenjera uye kugona kwekugadzira kwevagadziri vavo. Gradient Ramp Gradient Ramp inotarisirwa kuva chigadzirwa chinokudzwa zvakanyanya, chinoremekedzwa uye chinodiwa, chinoshanda uye chine zvitsva. Dhizaini iyi yakahwina Mubairo weSimbi we A' Design Award inosanganisa maitiro akanakisa eindasitiri uye ine hunhu hwetekinoroji hwakakwana hwakabatana neruzivo nehunyanzvi. Nekushanda kwayo zvakanaka, Gradient Ramp Gradient Ramp inoremekedzwa uye yakagadzirirwa kupa kuvandudzwa kwehupenyu kunobatsira kuita kuti nyika ive nzvimbo iri nani.

Unique Properties
This is a sellotape with a unique color. What is unique about it is what it does. It is a tape made of gradient. After using the tape, due to the gradient characteristics of the cut after use will form a color difference. So that users find the transparent tape incision, easy to use.
Dimensions & Packaging
length 10cm x Width 10cm x Height 1.5cm

Tape, Tape cut, Gradient ramp, Convenience, Stationery
Production Technology
No plasticizer PVC film based material, with good low temperature resistance, good initial viscosity, easy punching and cutting molding.
Design Challenge
This is an innovative design with a complex internal structure, and the machining qualification rate is the biggest challenge encountered by this project.
Research
In the past decade, the production of rubber belt has maintained an upward trend, with the output rising from 10.03 billion square meters in 2007 to 21.86 billion square meters in 2016. The industry scale is expanding continuously, and the market prospect is broad. Despite the forward-looking estimates, in 2017, the production of tape reached 23.80 billion square meters, a year-on-year growth of 8.88%. In such a large market, a tape that solves pain points is very promising.
Inspiration
I get my inspiration from gradient.Tape is a stationery that many people often use.Because the tape is too thin.Everyone who uses tape has a problem with not finding the cut.We combine the principle of gradient with tape.You can easily find the tape cut through the color difference.Our motivation was to design a tape that was easier to use.
Project Duration
The project started in September 2020 in Milan and finished in February 2021 in that place, and was exhibited in China in February 2021.
Operation Flow
First pick up the tape. Second, look for areas where the color difference is very pronounced. Third, use tape. Finally, after using the tape, the tape incision and tape will directly produce obvious color difference, convenient for people to find, so that the next use is more simple.
