Capabilities

Engineering & Design

Service website

Provides comprehensive engineering, 3D CAD modeling, and design validation from initial concept to fabrication-ready documentation.

  • 3D CAD Modeling

    Utilizes 3D CAD models early in the development process for fit, form, and function assessments, providing CAD-driven drawings and downstream files.

  • Design Expertise

    Develops layout sketches, parts lists, and hand-calculations to solve complex physical problems and create prototype hardware.

  • Engineering Drawings

    Delivers drawings compliant with ANSI/ASME Y14.100-2004 and MIL-DTL-31000, including 3D renderings, castings, forgings, and tooling.

Performance Analyses & Simulation

Service website

Performs rigorous structural, thermal, and dynamic analyses using advanced FEA and simulation tools to ensure adequate performance margins.

  • Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

    Conducts linear structural, buckling, thermal, random vibration, and durability analyses to optimize design simplicity.

  • Dynamic Analyses

    Simulates operational motion and physical behaviors to verify performance matches predictions.

Fabrication & Welding
