Valeo

Land Rover Discovery Key

Mid 90′s
Valeo are one of the worlds biggest suppliers of components and integrated systems to the automotive industry.

The Challenge
During the mid 1990‘s Valeo were responsible for supplying the door locking systems to the Land Rover Discovery Mk II. As part of the job, Blueprint were sub contracted to develop the vehicles key-fob.

What we did
With a surface model provided by Land Rover, and electronics provided by Valeo, it was up to Blueprint to fully developed the Key to a level that was ready for immediate manufacture. Using state of the art CAD packages, the team fully detailed the key-fob to comply with stringent product liability constraints whilst retaining an elegant, tactile ‘pebble like’ form. All CAD files were used to create production tooling with little to no modifications required for full productionisation.
