01 — Services
01 / 05
From first sketch to the first production run.
Four services that can be booked on their own or combined into one programme. Every one of them ends with drawings a supplier can quote without calling us.
02 — What we do
02 / 05
Four services, one way of working.
01
Mechanical design
Parametric CAD, assemblies and part families, built so the next variant takes hours instead of weeks.
Deliverables
— Native CAD and STEP files
— Assembly and part drawings
— Design review log
Typical duration
4–12 weeks
02
Design for manufacture
We take a design that works and make it cheap, repeatable and easy to assemble, with the process you will actually use.
Deliverables
— DFM report with draft and thickness maps
— Tolerance stack-ups
— Supplier-ready drawings
Typical duration
2–6 weeks
03
Enclosures and electronics
Housings, seals, thermal paths and cable routing, designed around the board rather than after it.
Deliverables
— Enclosure CAD and drawings
— IP and thermal test plan
— Board keep-out agreement
Typical duration
6–16 weeks
04
Prototyping and testing
Printed, machined and cast prototypes in days, each one tied to a revision and to a test that answers a real question.
Deliverables
— Prototype builds
— Test reports with photos
— Updated revision log
Typical duration
1–3 weeks per loop

05 — FAQ
05 / 05
Questions about working together.
How do you price a project?
Sprints and retainers have a fixed price. Programmes are quoted per phase, so you approve each step with a clear scope.
Can you start from our existing CAD?
Yes. We work in the major CAD tools and can pick up native files or STEP models at any stage.
Do you work with our suppliers?
We prefer to. We can also introduce moulders, machinists and assemblers we have shipped with before.
What happens after release?
We support the first article inspection and stay available on a retainer for changes and cost-downs.
Not sure which one fits?
Tell us where the product is today. We will suggest the smallest next step that answers the biggest question.
