Design
Hands-on workshop experience means we understand all stages of the development and manufacturing process. This helps us deliver functional, cost-effective solutions working closely with our clients offering value wherever possible.
CAD (Computer Aided Drafting)
We put together fast, functional CAD models with little emphasis on scalability or create fully scalable 3D models driven by dimensions.
Certification
We work with a range of Australian and International standards to ensure compliance wherever required. We will assess and design to any standard.
We provide:
-
Detailed design documents outlining how we have certified your product
-
A certificate of compliance signed off by our senior engineers along with each certification
-
Compliance plates affixed with your certified products
Optimisation
Using principles from the analysis and optimisation of haulpak tyres and mining truck trays, we've helped clients optimise products from small plastic components up to huge truck trailers.
We analyse:
-
Utilise clients knowledge to understand the product
-
Assess real world data inputs to develop correct simulation boundary conditions
-
Model and simulate components/systems to the required complexity
Marketing
We use high quality rendering to get a real world feel for how the product will look once manufactured, as well as for valuable marketing content.
It provides the designer with a true appreciation of the size of a product while applying lifeline textures and views that emulate the human eye or a camera.
Software
We use a range of rendering software from Solidworks, Adobe and open source, depending on the job requirements.
Manufacture
Manufacture & fabrication
We have a large amount of experience in mechanical fabrication workshops, we utilise our boilermaker part of the drafting team to bring the workshop floor into the office. This creates efficiencies in both design and manufacture, meaning smart and cost effective designs.
Metal fabrication
We have the equipment in house to tackle and fabrication up to 10m long and 4m wide, using primarily MIG and TIG welding. We outsource larger jobs to our trusted fabrication partners.
Machining & material treatments
High precision, small parts can be turned around using our machining partners locally as well as in China.
