CAD design services that lead to real, working parts
Got an idea, a sketch or a part that needs improving, but no CAD file? Our CAD design services turn your concept into an accurate, manufacturable 3D model. Because we design and manufacture under one roof, the files we create print and machine properly first time.
- Work from sketches, photos, measurements or an existing part
- Designed for 3D printing and production from the start
- Native Fusion 360 files, plus STEP, IGES and STL
Have a physical part but no drawings? Our reverse engineering service can capture it.
What we do
What our CAD design service covers
From a blank page to print-ready files, with every model designed around how it will be made.
New part and product design
We turn sketches, photos, measurements or a written brief into a fully dimensioned 3D model.
3D modelling for 3D printing
Walls, clearances and orientation optimised for SLS, SLA or FDM, so prints succeed and costs stay down.
File repair and preparation
We fix holes, inverted surfaces and thin features in STL, STEP and OBJ files so they're ready to make.
CAD drawings
2D technical drawings with the dimensions and tolerances your supply chain or quality team needs.
Fusion 360 and DfAM
Design for additive manufacturing
We design in Autodesk Fusion 360. Parametric models are quick to edit, so a design change doesn't mean starting again. Designing specifically for 3D printing also unlocks benefits traditional methods can't match:
- Complex geometry at no extra cost: internal channels, lattices and organic shapes
- Part consolidation: several components combined into one printed part
- Weight reduction: material only where it's needed
- Support-free design: SLS needs no supports, so no support marks
Who we work with
Design support that fits how you work
Engineering teams
Extra design capacity when your in-house team is stretched, from one part to a whole project.
Product designers and start-ups
From first concept to a model ready for prototype development.
Manufacturers
Jigs, fixtures and replacement parts designed around your production line.
Drone and UAV developers
Lightweight drone parts refined for testing and production.
From CAD to finished part
Rapid prototypes
Test your design quickly with our rapid prototyping service.
SLS and SLA parts
Tough SLS Nylon 12 parts or highly detailed SLA resin parts.
Low volume production
Move straight into batch production with no tooling costs.
CNC machined metal
Metal components to the same design through our partner Silvey Engineering.
Start your project
Get a quote for CAD design
Send us whatever you have: sketches, photos, measurements or existing files. A short description is fine too.
What happens next
- We review your brief and any files you send.
- We agree the scope, timescale and price.
- We share the model with you for feedback at each stage.
Based in Arlingham, Gloucestershire. We work with clients across the UK and Europe, by email and video call or in person.
