Design for Manufacture

Engineers working at desks using CAD software to design manufactured components.

overview

Our experienced 3D modelling and design team supports your project from concept through to manufacture, translating parts or products into fully detailed cut, fold and fabrication drawings ready for production.

Our in-house design team apply proven design for manufacturing principles to add value at every stage. This ensures designs are optimised for efficiency, accuracy and cost effectiveness.

2D and 3D Design

This capability supports our commitment to engineering excellence, allowing our design team to optimise designs early in the process to identify and resolve potential issues before going into production.

Using SolidWorks, the industry-standard 3D CAD software, we ensure compatibility and accuracy across a wide range of projects. Our workflows support common manufacturing file formats, including .DXF, .DWG and .STEP, enabling seamless transfer from design to production.

Nesting and Production Planning

For precise nesting and production planning, we utilise advanced Trumpf software, replacing legacy nesting systems to create a fully streamlined digital workflow. As one of the world’s leading manufacturing technology providers, Trumpf software is designed to integrate directly with our machinery, maximising efficiency, material utilisation and machine performance while reducing lead times and manual intervention.

Worldwide Delivery

Our end-to-end engineering service provides reliable, worldwide delivery, helping you meet lead times with ease. Whether shipping locally or internationally, we ensure your project stays on schedule at every stage, giving you peace of mind from start to finish.
