We get your CAD ready to make.

No — we're not an industrial design studio. If you need concept design, sketching, or brand-level product design, bring your own designer or studio and we'll work directly with them from day one — or, if you don't have one yet, we can introduce you to one of the design studios we partner with. What we do is take an existing CAD file — yours or theirs — and engineer it for manufacturability, cost and process fit.

Our own engineers, mold makers and industrial designers. They don’t redraw your product — they guide it: flagging what will fail in the chosen process, what will cost more than it needs to, and which small geometry changes get the best possible result. Through it all, one engineer stays your single point of contact from quote to production.

That's fine — rough is a normal starting point. An engineer looks it over at whatever stage it's at and flags what needs to firm up before it can be accurately quoted, rather than requiring a finished, production-ready file upfront.

That's one of the most common jobs here. A file that prints cleanly usually can't be molded as drawn — no draft angles, uneven walls, undercuts a mold can't release — but it doesn't need redesigning from scratch. It needs an engineering pass: draft added, walls made uniform, solid sections turned into ribs. You see and approve every change before any tooling is cut, and the part keeps working and looking the way you designed it. The same applies to any process switch — the concept stays yours; the geometry gets engineered for the process that'll actually run it.

Every order includes a DFM pass on the parts being made, once the quote is approved. This capability goes further: reviewing a whole product or assembly for consolidation, material strategy and cost-down opportunities across multiple parts, not just checking one part's tolerances.

Yes — if your product was designed by an outside studio, we coordinate manufacturability directly with them rather than relaying feedback through you. Their design intent and our production constraints get resolved directly, not lost between two separate conversations.

Only if you want it to. We point out which recommendations lower the cost, and you decide what to keep as-is for looks or brand reasons and what to simplify — nothing gets changed without your OK.

No — the DFM pass that follows an approved quote is included on every order, the same as any other process. A deeper, whole-product review — consolidating multiple parts or rethinking material strategy across an assembly — is scoped with your engineer based on what's actually involved, not a fixed add-on fee.

Then it needs an industrial designer — and we'll say so rather than take on work outside what we're good at. But you're not left on your own: our engineers, mold makers and industrial designers will guide you on what the design has to hit to manufacture well — process, material, cost targets — and we can introduce you to one of the design studios we partner with. Once the concept exists, the same engineer picks the file back up and takes it through quoting and production.
