For a machine that has to be custom-designed, the first step is not production — it is verifying the mechanism with a working prototype tested on real material.
The R&D team at HASY Industries takes on problems that call for a custom-designed machine: a gravimetric batching system for the Asean Tire factory, a milk cake line for the Moc Chau dairy, an automatic label sewing machine for the Tinh Loi garment factory, and equipment for the DÓO Entertainment high-tech amusement centre. The usual path: idea and design → prototype → trials → production version.
WHY BUILD A PROTOTYPE FIRST
Many companies and inventors have bold automation ideas but run into the same obstacle: not knowing which mechanism is best, which materials can take the load, or which control logic will deliver the accuracy needed.
Rushing straight into a full-scale machine means technical risk can multiply the cost — or force a complete rebuild if it does not run.
HASY’s R&D and prototyping service builds you a functional prototype — smaller and cheaper, but able to verify the working principle and measure the key technical parameters before you commit major capital.

THE R&D PROCESS
A step-by-step path that helps you keep development risk and budget under control:
Study the principle, calculate the kinematics and build a 3D model to check the mechanism before any steel is cut.
Precision machining, electrical assembly and test programming of the prototype so it can run directly on real material at the workshop.
Refine the mechanical structure, remove unnecessary parts, tidy the wiring and standardise the build to lower the cost of manufacture.
Complete the drawings, electrical diagrams and operating documents, and hand over the finished machine or line to the client.
R&D PROJECTS DELIVERED
Three projects showing how HASY builds and tests prototypes before completing the production version.
HASY developed the idea and a 3D concept from the factory’s requirements, built a prototype and tested it at the factory, upgraded it to a further test version, and only then machined the production version, installed it and handed it over.
HASY developed the concept and 3D design to the client’s requirements, built a prototype system and tested it at the HASY workshop, then installed, commissioned and handed it over to the Asean Tire factory, in service from 2020.
HASY analysed the design and built a prototype, machined and test-ran the sample, finalised the production design, then installed it and put it into service. The equipment comprises an automatic sewing machine and an automatic label pick-and-sew system.

HASY supplied automation equipment for the centre at Hanoi Creative City: HasyPro game machines, automated mechanical systems for the 5D experience zone, DóoX escape rooms and the Robot Combat arena.
CONFIDENTIALITY & TECHNICAL DOCUMENTS
Ideas and technical know-how belong to the business. This is how HASY handles information and ownership in R&D projects:
Client documents, drawings and production details are kept confidential. HASY can sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) before technical details are discussed.
Ownership of the designs and solutions developed in a project is set out clearly in that project’s contract.
After acceptance, HASY hands over the technical documents (drawings, electrical diagrams, operating documents) within the scope agreed in the contract.
HOW AN R&D PROJECT RUNS
A lean engineering process, with every test stage visible to the client:
Discuss the technical requirements in detail; sign an NDA if the client requests one.
Work out the mechanical principle, build a 3D model and quote separately for the prototype.
Machine the parts, wire the control circuits and program the test logic.
Run trials on real material, measure the error and fine-tune the mechanism.
Hand over the prototype and technical documents, then build the production version.
CLIENTS WHO HAVE WORKED WITH HASY
Answers on prototyping, confidentiality, design ownership and the path from a new machine to production.
We take on problems that need a machine researched and designed from scratch: special precision actuators, interactive robotic grippers, high-tech game systems built on microcontrollers or PLCs, automatic sewing machines tailored to a specific garment process, and automation for process steps that are still done by hand.
To reduce budget risk for the client, HASY usually splits an R&D project into 3 phases: (1) feasibility study and 3D model; (2) a prototype to test the principle (PoC – Proof of Concept) and evaluate it in practice; (3) the finished production version and handover.
Ownership of the designs, drawings and solutions developed in a project is set out in that project’s contract. HASY can sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) on request and hands over technical documents within the agreed scope.
An off-the-shelf machine is designed for general needs; custom R&D is for problems that call for a custom-designed machine. HASY starts with a 3D design, builds a prototype and runs trials with the client’s own material, and usually builds the production version only after the prototype has passed its tests.
Selected projects: a milk cake line for the Moc Chau dairy (2015), an automatic label sewing machine for the Tinh Loi garment factory (2018), a gravimetric batching system for the Asean Tire factory (2020), equipment for the DÓO Entertainment high-tech amusement centre (2015), and a 6-colour rotary screen printer presented on VTV’s Inventor show in 2013.
