Functional Ergonomic Pens

The Neopenx is an Innovative Rolling Ruler and Pen Combo

— April 18, 2018 — Art & Design
The Neopenx ergonomic pen is a combination of a ruler and a writing utensil. It features two round measuring wheels in either 2.5 inches or 4 inches. These wheels make the process of measuring a curved line easier for designers and make drawing curved lines on paper with exact dimensions as simple as drawing a straight line using a flat ruler.

Designers and artists require accurate measurements of the objects they are creating in order to ensure that the end product is proportionally correct. This ruler and pen combo is easy to use if you are drawing both straight lines and curved ones -- which are traditionally more difficult to accurately draw and measure with exact dimensions.

The Neopenx ergonomic pen boasts a triangular shaped barrel. The shape of the barrel reduces hand strain because the triangular shape is more comfortable to hold while users work. It is CNC-machined from brass, aluminum or stainless steel materials. Additionally, the multifunctional writing tool gives Hi-Tec-C Cartridges a nicer home.
Trend Themes
1. Combination Tools - The combination of a ruler and pen creates a new trend in functional ergonomic tools for designers and artists.
2. Ergonomic Design - The use of a triangular shaped barrel in the pen addresses the need for ergonomic design in writing utensils.
3. Precision Measurement - The inclusion of round measuring wheels allows for accurate measurements of curved lines, opening up opportunities for precise drawing and design.
Industry Implications
1. Design and Art - The combination of a ruler and pen provides innovative tools for designers and artists to create accurate and precise drawings.
2. Stationery and Office Supplies - The ergonomic design of the pen offers opportunities for disruption in the stationery and office supplies industry, catering to the needs of professionals who require comfortable writing tools.
3. Manufacturing and Materials - The use of CNC-machined brass, aluminum, or stainless steel materials in the pen's construction paves the way for advancements in manufacturing and materials within the industry.
