The article demonstrates how additive manufacturing can enhance the functionality and ergonomics of industrial testing devices. A redesign case of a control unit housing for heavy industry is presented, emphasizing form optimization, power portability, and connector limitations. The design process included concept analysis, comparison with existing solutions, modelling in SolidWorks, and adaptation for 3D printing
