We built our own Flex+ demo stand

We could have bought a ready-made solution. Instead, we designed and assembled the demo stand ourselves. From 1 September 2026, it will take Flex+ on a Solar roadshow across Denmark.

Flex+ is best experienced hands-on

Flex+ is Simplewire's portable cable identification tool for existing installations. It helps electricians identify which circuit supplies an outlet, cable or other electrical equipment, even when labels are missing or no longer accurate. The tool is particularly useful for service work, fault finding and relabelling.

Flex+ can scan up to 10 circuits at a time and is designed for circuit identification in existing installations that remain in operation, where working procedures permit. The workflow runs from the controller at the electrical panel to the handheld scanner at the point being checked, where the electrician receives a clear circuit ID.

We wanted to make that workflow tangible. At the demo stand, visitors can see the Flex+ equipment alongside familiar installation components and try the product themselves. It is more than a presentation: it physically demonstrates the task Flex+ is designed to solve.

From AI concept to finished demo stand

We explored the initial visual direction using AI-generated concept images. They were a source of inspiration, not finished engineering drawings, and helped us test the form, colours and placement of the key elements.

The high-resolution AI visualisation established the direction for form, colours and product placement. It is not a photograph of the finished result.

We then modelled the demo stand in 3D, bringing its proportions, front panel, product placement and Simplewire identity together in a design that could be built. The physical components were cut by an external supplier, while we handled the concept, design, 3D model, and procurement of parts and materials.

Once the parts were ready, we assembled and adjusted the structure in our workshop. We also handled the electronics, fitting and demonstration components.

  1. An AI-generated concept image establishes the initial visual direction.
  2. The idea is developed into a buildable 3D model.
  3. The externally cut parts are assembled and adjusted in the workshop.
  4. We drill, assemble and add electronics and demonstration components.
  5. The display is tested with Simplewire's own Flex+ product video.
  6. The completed demo stand is now at Solar in Odense and ready for the roadshow.

Flex+ on the Solar roadshow

From 1 September 2026, the demo stand will join Solar's roadshow across Denmark. Visitors can see the complete Flex+ system, follow the workflow from the electrical panel to the point being checked, and try the product themselves.

To us, this is a very Simplewire way of approaching a task: we had an idea, developed it digitally, had the parts cut by an external supplier, and took responsibility for the design, engineering, content and assembly ourselves. The result is both a tangible presentation of Flex+ and a physical example of how we turn ideas into reality.
