BMW's tooling division needed a case for precision torque wrenches, calipers, micrometers, and reference gauges used in prototype testing. Tools cost €500-€5,000 each, and calibration is critical (ISO 17025). Cases must protect against tool damage during transport between testing facilities and suppliers. Existing hard cases were bulky and lacked foam customization.
