High-performance studio microphones built in the UK
Roncarati, a company specializing in the design, sales and installation of lightning protection systems, partnered with Mule Studio to transform their digital workflow. We developed the Sipf App, a cutting-edge web application that enables Roncarati's engineers to rapidly design lightning protection systems with near real-time feedback.
The tool streamlines the entire process from initial concept to final deliverables, automatically generating detailed bills of quantities and comprehensive analysis that describe the protection coverage and system performance.


Traditional lightning protection algorithms are notoriously slow, often requiring minutes of computation time that hampers design iteration. Mule Studio addressed this challenge by developing a highly efficient algorithm that generates protection meshes at predefined resolutions.
This innovation allows users to adjust resolution settings dynamically-lowering resolution for rapid preliminary feedback during the design phase, then increasing it for final detailed analysis. The resulting mesh visualization uses color coding based on distances between mesh vertices and the protected structure, providing immediate visual feedback on protection effectiveness.

The Sipf App leverages Speckle as its central data hub and backend infrastructure. Given the diverse and scattered input formats that Roncarati receives from clients - ranging from CAD files to point clouds - Speckle's conversion capabilities ensure all data is standardized into a unified format. Beyond data normalization, Speckle serves as the application's backend, securely storing all design iterations, analysis results, and project data.
This integration creates a seamless workflow where design information flows efficiently from initial input through final deliverable, maintaining version control and collaboration capabilities essential for professional engineering workflows.
