Let Buyers Spin Your Machine on Your Own Website

A 360° product viewer turns your CAD into a machine a buyer can drag, rotate and inspect from every angle — running on your own domain, in any browser, on any phone. No headset, no plugin, no heavy 3D engine.

A Real One, Running on a Real Client Site

We built 360° viewers for all five machine ranges at SK Indus, a pharmaceutical and food process equipment manufacturer. Drag the machine below — this is the live viewer, embedded here exactly the way it is embedded on their own product pages.

Live embed from skindus.com. Five ranges — UNIPROSERVE, LIQUIPROSERVE, SEMIUNIPROSERVE, FOODPROSERVE and LABPROSERVE — each with its own viewer on the client’s own server.

How it works

Rendered Frames, Not a Heavy 3D Engine

A 360° product viewer is not WebGL. We render a ring of frames around your machine from its CAD, then a small script swaps frames as the visitor drags. That one decision is why it loads fast, works on every phone, and never fails on a weak connection in a customer’s office.

Built from your CAD

The same model we use for animation is turned on a virtual turntable and rendered frame by frame. Every bolt and nameplate is the real geometry, not a photograph of one unit.

Light enough to load anywhere

An image sequence beats a real-time 3D model on a mid-range Android phone every time. No GPU demands, no loading spinner, no crash on old hardware.

Works on any browser, no plugin

Drag with a mouse, swipe with a thumb. Nothing to install, nothing to accept, no app store. The viewer behaves the same in Chrome, Safari and on a five-year-old handset.

Hosted on your own domain

The published viewer sits in a folder on your server and loads in an iframe. No monthly platform fee, no third-party branding, no account that can lapse and take your product pages with it.

Hotspots on the parts that matter

Pin a callout to the discharge valve, the control panel or the CIP connection, so a buyer inspecting the machine reads the spec at the point they are looking at it.

Drops into any CMS

WordPress, Wix, Shopify, Webflow or a custom build — if the page can take an iframe, it can take the viewer. We hand over the files and the embed code.

Why it earns its place

A Static Product Photo Answers One Question.
A 360° Viewer Answers Twelve.

Capital equipment buyers do not buy from one hero shot. They want to see the back of the machine, the panel side, the discharge, the frame. Give them that on the page and they stop emailing you for more photographs.

Fewer “can you send more photos” emails

Every angle is already there. Your sales engineer stops being a photograph-forwarding service and starts answering the questions that actually need an engineer.

Works before the machine is built

Because it is rendered from CAD, you can publish a viewer for a model you have not manufactured yet — or for a configuration this customer wants and nobody has ordered before.

Visitors stay on the page

A control someone can drag is a control they use. Longer, more engaged sessions on a product page are exactly what your analytics and search rankings both reward.

One asset, every channel

The same frame set becomes the website viewer, the tablet demo for a sales meeting, and the spinner on your exhibition screen.

Questions

360° Product Viewers — Common Questions

What machine manufacturers ask before commissioning one.

What is a 360° product viewer?
It is an interactive image sequence that lets a website visitor drag to rotate your product through a full turn. We render the frames from your CAD model, publish them as a small self-contained viewer, and embed it in your product page. The visitor experiences it as a machine they can spin; technically it is a set of images swapped by a lightweight script.
Is this 3D or is it photography?
Ours is rendered from your 3D CAD, which means no photo studio, no shipping a machine, and no waiting until a unit is physically built. Traditional 360 product photography turns a real object on a physical turntable. For capital equipment the CAD route is faster, cheaper and possible far earlier.
Where is the viewer hosted?
On your own server, under your own domain, in a normal folder. We hand over the published files and the embed code. There is no monthly platform subscription and no third-party logo. On skindus.com, for example, each viewer sits at its own path on their site and loads in an iframe on the product page.
Will it work on phones and older browsers?
Yes, and that is the main reason we use an image sequence rather than a real-time 3D model. There is no WebGL requirement and no GPU demand, so it behaves the same on a new laptop and a five-year-old Android handset on a weak connection.
Can we add hotspots and specifications?
Yes. Callouts can be pinned to specific parts so that when a buyer rotates to the discharge valve or the control panel, the relevant specification appears at that point. This is what turns a nice rotation into a selling tool.
Can you do our whole product range?
Yes, and it gets cheaper per machine as the range grows because the setup, lighting and turntable rig are reused. We built viewers for five machine ranges at SK Indus as one project.
What do you need from us?
CAD in any standard format (STEP, IGES, SolidWorks, Inventor), your finish and colour specification, and a note on which angles and details matter to your buyers. If you want hotspots, the specification text for each callout.
How much does a 360° product viewer cost?
It depends on the number of machines, the number of frames per rotation, the level of finish in the render and whether you need hotspots. A single machine and a full product range are very different jobs. Send the model list and we will quote against it.
How is this different from your interactive 360° tour?
A 360° product viewer rotates one machine on your product page. An interactive 360° tour puts the visitor inside a space they can look around and move through. One sells a product; the other shows a place.

Put Your Machine in Their Hands.

Send the CAD and the model list. We will render the rotation, publish the viewer and hand you the embed code for your own site.
