Mechanical design on demand

If you have an idea for a product or component I can assist you in the first steps of turning them into a reality. I can provide anything from suggestions, advice and ideas to concept generation. Sketches, 3D CAD models or even photorealistic renderings are all possible.

Optimisation of parts and assemblies for mass production. Detail design, engineering drawings and tolerancing. I can design for many manufacturing processes especially injection moulding, die-casting, sheet metal & CNC machining.

I use SolidWorks to produce 3D CAD models of parts and assemblies. I can use these to generate engineering drawings. Whether you need modifications to existing parts or a new design from scratch I can help. Need new 3D models of legacy parts? Get in touch!

If you need a physical prototype I can assist you by designing it, then getting it made. This can be from a simple “Proof of Concept” model, to a full-on representation of a mass produced product.

I can help save you money. This may involve redesigning or optimising existing parts, using alternative manufacturing processes, or investigating alternatives to existing bought-in components.

I can help with mechanical testing and thermal testing. If you need component approval I can also mechanically inspect parts and assemblies to ensure that they’re within spec.

I can create detailed Bills of Materials for your product and estimate or obtain costings to ensure that you know exactly what your mechanical parts will cost you.

Need someone to liaise with suppliers / manufacturers and get things done? Need to find a suitable manufacturer? I am also available for foreign travel if necessary.

Using a combination of SolidWorks and Adobe Illustrator I can create high quality technical illustrations or diagrams for promotional or instructional purposes.
