Combining my CAD modeling, 3D Scanning, and metrology tool sets, I can recreate solid models of existing hardware. If you need to recreate a part that already exists, but you don't have an existing CAD model or drawings, I can generate an accurate CAD model and drawings for you.

The process of design for manufacture means taking into account what tools will be used to actually make the final part. A well designed part is much cheaper to manufacture by reducing the number of tools and the need for specialty tooling in the machining process. My experience in a machining environment and tool purchasing gives me insight into what features may add cost and not functionality to your part.

Using 3D Printing, I can generate prototypes in a variety of engineering materials so that you can hold and test a physical model before investing in machining. The programming and turnaround time for 3D printing is vastly faster than the CAM and machining process. While plastics parts may be mechanically inferior, the ability to validate your design before undergoing to cost of creating a metal part is indispensable.

To create small runs of parts or more durable test pieces, I can create silicone molds of parts. Silicone molds allow for casting fiber reinforced resins and resins that are not uv-cure. This expands the range of materials from what is offered by 3D printing to create anything from very soft rubber parts to very rigid glass fiber reinforced parts. A vacuum chamber provides parts that are free of air bubbles.
