MACHINE DESIGN
The use of computer-aided design (CAD) programs has significantly enhanced the efficiency of the Detailed Design phase. Leveraging our expertise, we can assist in optimizing your system design to achieve cost reductions without compromising the quality or functionality of individual parts. Through comprehensive solid modeling, meticulous design reviews, detailed drawings, illustrations, and a detailed Bill of Materials, we provide accurate and comprehensive hardware information for your project. This streamlined approach facilitates a smoother part procurement phase for you and your team, streamlining the overall process.

HOW CAN WE HELP?
Machine Design is a collaborative endeavor that calls for a diverse range of talents and skills. Some designers excel in inventive thinking, while others possess analytical minds. Some bring artistic flair and expertise to enhance the style and aesthetics of machinery. Machine design is as much an art as it is a science. At MechCADD, we combine artistry, ingenuity, and meticulousness to ensure the success of your project while adhering to your requirements and budget.
We offer a comprehensive range of design services tailored to your specific needs:
-
Adaptive Design: Minor modifications to existing designs or products.
-
Developed Design/Reverse Engineering: Enhancing existing designs or products through reference and improvement.
-
New Design: Creating a system from scratch to meet the demands of a new or emerging market.
As design is the initial step towards manufacturing, our team of designers are well-versed in Design for Manufacturability (DFM), ANSI, ISO, and GD&T standards. Their deep understanding of manufacturing processes enables the creation of simpler parts, reduces costs, and minimizes manufacturing challenges. We also consider factors such as Design for Assembly (DFA), user interaction, and maintenance to provide the best possible illustrations for you, your technicians, and your customers.
1. CAD STANDARDS
When collaborating across teams, involving multiple designers and engineers, it is crucial to establish CAD standards that foster a professional and efficient working environment. By defining and implementing these standards, we can significantly reduce confusion, errors, and wasted time.

Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T)
Our expertise is in the production of CAD models encompassing all aspects of your production capabilities, including manufactured parts, purchased components, and modified purchased items. We specialize in modeling intricate top-level system assemblies, which occasionally entail dynamic multi-configuration subassemblies. These dynamic assemblies enable motion studies and serve as a means to verify that the design aligns with the specified requirements. see our 3D Modeling services page for more information.

3. DETAILED ENGINEERING DRAWINGS
Our proficiency lies in producing precise and comprehensive Detailed Engineering Drawings for a wide range of components, including Machined Parts, Sheetmetal Parts, and Weldments. These detailed drawings effectively convey your design intentions to manufacturers, ensuring clarity and accuracy during the manufacturing process. Additionally, we offer assembly drawings, exploded views, layout diagrams, and as-built drawings to provide a comprehensive representation of your designs. All our drawings strictly adhere to internationally recognized standards such as ANSI, ISO, and GD&T, guaranteeing consistency and compatibility with industry requirements. See our 3D Modeling service page for more information.
We can provide detailed and comprehensive Bill of Materials (BOM) tailored to your specific requirements, whether for internal or external documentation purposes. The BOMs we provide include essential information such as part sourcing details for efficient part procurement, cost evaluations, and revision history.
In addition to BOM generation, we excel in generating high-quality technical illustrations and renderings suitable for various applications such as manuals, patents, and marketing materials. Our expertise in visual representation ensures that your technical illustrations effectively communicate crucial information and enhance the overall presentation of your products.
We understand the significance of accurate and detailed documentation, and our team is committed to delivering exceptional results that meet the standards of your company.
