Precision Engineering Design and Drafting

  • Solid and surface modeling for single components or multi-part assemblies.

  • Fully dimensioned, toleranced, and detailed manufacturing drawings.

  • Digitizing old paper blueprints, hand sketches, and PDFs into modern, editable CAD files.

  • Modifying existing toolpaths, solid models, and shop files to match physical design changes.

  • Transforming early ideas, rough sketches, or physical prototypes into structured 3D models.

  • Generating accurate CAD files from measured physical parts or existing components.

  • Converting geometry across different file formats (STEP, IGES, DXF, DWG, Parasolid, etc.).

  • Fast implementation of engineer or shop-floor redlines on active drawing sets.

  • Creating structured, accurate component lists and callouts integrated into assembly drawings.

  • On-demand drafting support that acts as a flexible, plug-and-play extension of your internal team.

Industries we serve
