3D CAD & RENDERING

3 advanced product designs

2D Drawings

Detailed 2D engineering drawings linked to the 3D CAD fi les can be developed to fully defi ne your product components and assemblies. We can use your company sheet formats or de-velop custom formats to suit your needs.

3D Models

We can transform concept sketches or ideas into fully parametric virtual CAD models giving you a much greater feeland understanding of the products shape and form. We can also create a CAD surface fi le using the Master CAD technique.

Photo Realistic Renders

With our new render development package we can create realistic images with 3D models.This makes it possible to illustrate material characteristics like plastics and metals in greater detail, giving you a better representation of the fi nal product before it is produced.

3D PRINTING & PROTOTYPING

4 advanced product designs

3D Printing

This is where we turn the concepts and virtual models into real physical 3D prototypes using our in-house 3D prototyping equipment. These prototypes can be used as marketing tools for tactile product feel, block models dur-ing concept selection and for functional prototyping.

Tooling Design and Manufacturing

We have in-house mould design and manufacturing ex-perience so we can ensure the fi nal product is designed correctly for moulding & manufacture. We can also build prototype tooling in Asia in short time lines to get you the initial moulded parts for testing and fi rst product manufacture. We also have many top quality vendors we can sub-contract or source for you depending on the product requirements.
