Follow what goes in, what the key component does and what comes out. That gives an industrial animation a story a buyer can follow. ![Industrial machinery inside a factory](https://caprivideo.com/content/images/machine.jpg) *Illustrative stock photo: [Anna Shvets / Pexels](https://www.pexels.com/photo/an-industrial-machine-in-a-factory-5953723/). [Pexels License](https://www.pexels.com/license/).* ## Follow the material Use an approved cutaway and consistent labels for input, the key station, and output. Identify schematic motion where appropriate. Keep operation and maintenance guidance separate from the sales overview, since those jobs require different detail and review. ## Prepare the technical material Bring CAD files or approved drawings, technical data and someone qualified to review the machine's operation. Mark schematic views clearly and have a technical specialist check the details. Then ask someone from the intended audience whether the explanation makes sense. ![Gears and metal components in machinery](https://caprivideo.com/content/images/gears.jpg) *Illustrative stock photo: [Connor Lucock / Pexels](https://www.pexels.com/photo/close-up-of-industrial-gears-and-machinery-28752154/). [Pexels License](https://www.pexels.com/license/).* ## Use it in the technical conversation Use it on the product page, in technical sales or at a trade show. Ask what the machine contributes to the process. If viewers describe only its appearance, make the material path clearer. Keep throughput, reliability and performance figures tied to verified information for the actual model. ## Related reading - [Make a technical process visible](https://caprivideo.com/guides/industrial-animation-services) - [Put the component back into the system](https://caprivideo.com/industries/industrial-logistics/industrial-component-animation) ## Related pages - [Industry group: Industry & logistics](https://caprivideo.com/industries/industrial-logistics) - [A little more background: Make a technical process visible](https://caprivideo.com/guides/industrial-animation-services) - [Put the component back into the system](https://caprivideo.com/industries/industrial-logistics/industrial-component-animation): Locate the real product in a simplified assembly and explain the function that matters to the buyer. - [Show the work an engineering client receives](https://caprivideo.com/industries/industrial-logistics/engineering-service-explainer-videos): Connect the information a client supplies with a representative deliverable, using a clearly fictional example. - [Show where responsibility changes in fulfillment](https://caprivideo.com/industries/industrial-logistics/fulfillment-explainer-videos): Follow a sample order's goods and information, including the point where another party takes over. - [Explain the equipment's part in the farm's work](https://caprivideo.com/industries/industrial-logistics/agricultural-equipment-videos): Use one documented process to connect the machine with its function and the conditions still to be checked. - [Show where the shipment goes](https://caprivideo.com/industries/industrial-logistics/freight-company-explainer-videos): Show shippers how booking, pickup, transport and delivery work and where they can track their freight. - [Make complex aviation technology and processes visible](https://caprivideo.com/industries/industrial-logistics/aviation-explainer-videos): Show customers, partners and applicants how a component, a maintenance task or a service works. ## See your offer as a video We create a free watermarked video for your business from your website.
