The Oracle Jet was envisioned as a complete reimagination of Breville’s top-tier espresso machine. The project introduced a new technological foundation, integrating an advanced auto-tamper ‘augur’ system and a redesigned hydraulic assembly to elevate performance and user experience.

ID development. 

The design process focused on refining both the machine’s overall form and detailed components. Clay modelling and foam prototypes enabled exploration of shape and proportion. These physical models were 3D scanned, transitioning into digital CAD environments to inform the development of a fully machined “looks-like” prototype. This prototype was critical in advancing through Breville’s stage gate review process.

Rig building 

Rig development played a pivotal role in validating design and engineering solutions. Sub-system rigs were built and iteratively tested to demonstrate feasibility and functionality at each stage gate, ensuring confidence in performance before advancing.

Prototype testing

A series of prototypes were created to rigorously test design concepts and mechanical systems. This iterative process embraced a “fail-to-succeed” mentality, allowing the team to identify and resolve challenges before progressing to production.

Mechanical assemblies. 

Developing the Oracle Jet required precise coordination of complex mechanical assemblies. Subsystems were independently modelled and later integrated into a unified chassis architecture. Managing over 3000 parts necessitated the implementation of Teamcenter PLM software, streamlining supplier interactions and component releases.

Mechanical assemblies. 

Complex assemblies were created to help develop the product architecture. Each subsystem was modelled independantly then we developed a common chassis to mount all the components.

With over 3000 parts in the machine we implemented Teamcenter a PLM software to help manage and release components to suppliers.
