CAD Design & Mechanical Engineering
Functional, manufacturable models created with professional engineering workflows.
Design Philosophy
- Function first � every part solves a real problem.
- Parametric modeling � dimensions and relationships drive the design.
- Manufacturing-aware � tolerances, kerf, shrinkage, and material behavior are built in.
- Iterative refinement � test, adjust, optimize.
Tools & Workflow
- Autodesk Inventor
- Fusion 360
- 3D printing slicers (Cura & Creality)
- xTool Studio for laser integration
- Custom templates for repeatable engineering workflows
