Find out how we can help buttonIndustries we work with

We are known for delivering high quality / high-end work for all sorts of startups, manufacturing, design, construction and engineering firm needs.

Whether you’re looking for 2D drafting, CAD conversion projects, parts for structural engineering, building services, structural steel detailing or any other drafting needs we can help.

Our approach towards all projects is curious and consultative and we love the challenge of working with clients in new and developing industries, as much as with those in established fields.

Here are some examples of the industries we have worked with and just some of the applications our outsourcing services can be used for:

CAD Drafting for Small to Medium-Sized Businesses (SMBs) with Manufacturing Needs

With our services, small and medium businesses who need a product or part manufactured can get high quality CADD files created without having to pay the high cost of permanent internal staff. This is cost-efficient and can provide a competitive advantage when working on projects like:

  • Custom metal brackets
  • Models for kitchen tools
  • Specialized fitness equipment gadgets.
  • Custom bicycle accessories.
  • Unique lighting or furniture fixtures

Product Development Companies

Accelerate your product development by leaning on our specialized skills in design and engineering. We love helping innovative companies bring their products to market faster. For example, we can:

  • Design housing for electrical products
  • Model ground-breaking products, like innovative toothbrushes.
  • Create files for new types of plastic or silicon containers
  • Create exciting new toys and game pieces and more.

Start-Ups and Entrepreneurs

By outsourcing CADD to us start-ups and entrepreneurs can quickly transform their ideas into real world products without having to hire a full time designer. This creates a significant cost-saving, and reduces the need for up front investment in human resources.

Some of the types of work we can do for startups and entrepreuners includes:

  • Creating prototypes for personal vehicles like electric bikes and scooters (we don’t do the electrics though).
  • Creating smart luggage that can be used with GPS trackers.
  • Creating CAD models for a home / kitchen composting device.
  • Modeling innovative reusable coffee cups, like you see everywhere, but better.
  • Helping design a smart pill dispenser.
  • Making modular furniture that adapts to various small spaces.

Manufacturers with Fluctuating Demand

Outsourcing modeling services to us offers flexibility for manufacturers who want to scale their operations up or down according to demand. This helps to reduce costs during slow periods and ramp them up quickly again when demand is higher.

Engineering Design for Industrial Designers

Industrial design and engineering go hand in hand. With our help industrial designers create functional, interesting products from minimum viable prototypes through to fully fledged products with world-wide distribution runs.

Examples include:

  • CAD drawings for laptop and phone cases in shock-proof materials.
  • Ergonomic handles for power tools.
  • Designs for designer sunglass frames.
  • Helmets for cyclists that are aerodynamic.
  • Modern ergo office chairs.
  • Futuristic gaming consoles.
  • and more

CAD Outsourcing Service for Mechanical Engineers

Using an outsourcing company to provide design services allows mechanical engineers to focus on what they’re good at – doing the core engineering tasks while knowing any parts they need created will have accurate designs. This can lead to improved project outcomes, like charging more per hour for the work done, which easily offsets the cost of outsourced CAD design, and projects that are completed more quickly.

Examples include:

  • Drafting designs for industrial pumping systems.
  • Creating files for different gear assemblies for machinery.
  • Making mounting brackets for engines or for various architectural applications.
  • Designing conveyor belts and related mechanisms.
  • Creating designs for precision tools.

Medical Device Manufacturers and Biomedical Companies

Using an outsourcing service allows medical and biomed companies to design precise, compliant designs that are ready for prototyping, iteration and production, at the same time as adhering to regulatory standards. For example:

  • Components for dialysis machines.
  • Designs for disposable medical instruments.
  • Custom surgical implants
  • Designs for 3D-printing prosthetic limbs in various materials.
  • Orthopedic braces.

Outsourced CADD Engineering Solutions for Automotive and Aerospace Companies

Our services are the perfect solution for companies that need to create specialized parts for cars or aeroplanes. We can help you create models for anything from plastic car parts, like dash trim, to modeling body panels, or even things like coils for suspension systems or turbine blades.

R&D Projects in Various Industries

Do you work in Research and Development? We can help! We can provide outsourced rapid prototyping and specialized CADD design capabilities, enabling you to innovate efficiently on whatever project you’re working on.

Art and Sculpture Designers

We help artists and sculptors bring their ideas, from simple to very complex and intricate creations, to life in a way that is not possible for artists without CAD expertise. We will help you to expand your creative possibilities and can be involved in all stages of the design and fabrication process depending on your needs.

For example, we can help with:

  • 3D-printed jewelry
  • Interactive light sculptures
  • Laser-cut art.
  • Modeling large-scale sculptures for public spaces (this can help a lot with project pitches and grants as you can show the locality what your art installation will look like in the space).

Packaging Designers

Packaging designers can use our outsourcing services to experiment with new materials and shapes in their packaging. This can enhance product appeal and uniqueness, and working with a skilled outsourcing team can reduce overall time to market.

We can help with the following for instance:

  • Making new and unique food containers.
  • Creating luxury packaging for cosmetics.
  • Designing unique custom bottle shapes for holding drinks and other liquids.
  • Modeling reusable containers that can be used in meal delivery services.
  • Designing packaging with integrated security features.

Agricultural Equipment Designers

Our services can help agricultural equipment designers to design and create efficient machinery parts and tools for specific farming needs. For example, modeling components for automated milking systems, designing grain storage solutions, nozzles for irrigation control systems, designing designing components for greenhouse climate control and more.

CADD Outsourcing For Machinery Design Firms

We can help machinery design companies to model all sorts of parts and components for their projects, for example, metal feet for industrial sewing machines, parts for material shredders, industrial washing and drying system components, parts for metal fabrication equipment and more.
