WHAT WE CAN BUILD

Information prepared for those who make it.

We connect the model to fabrication and assembly needs. When the scope includes DfMA, we also look for ways to simplify making and assembling the product.

01

Part and assembly modelling

3D models of components, equipment, machines and structures, from your project information.

Examplea spring-tine cultivator modelled part by part.

02

Fabrication and assembly drawings

Views, sections, dimensions and details organised to communicate fabrication and assembly.

Exampleassembly drawings with part references and assembly dimensions.

03

Bills of materials

Component lists and quantities linked to the model and the documentation.

Examplea bill of materials taken from the model, ready for purchasing.

04

Production prep and review

Preparing files and reviewing fabrication details according to the agreed processes.

Examplecutting files and part drawings checked before they go to the workshop.
