Design
We provide a comprehensive design service, delivering specific solutions as well as offering turn-key design packages, from concept to detailed design and drafting. Utilising our close partnership with major manufacturing companies we also offer a full design and make service.
Concept Design
Drawing on our vast design experience, our team offers creative and innovative concept solutions. Visual representation and preliminary analysis is used to develop and communicate concepts giving our clients confidence that deliverables can be achieved.
Detail Design
Our engineers specialise in the design of complex and cutting-edge products using 3D CAD modelling. We develop detailed designs fit for manufacture, with designers working closely with analysts and manufacturers alike to ensure optimal solutions are found.
Drafting
We produce manufacturing and scheme-level GA drawings to a number of standards, with our designers skilled in the use of GD&T, limits and fits and composite standards. All drawings are rigorously checked by our experienced drawing verifiers.
