Core Engineering Services

Technical Drawing to 3D CAD Conversion

We transform raw ideas into structural reality. We work with:

  • Hand sketches
  • Orthographic drawings
  • Legacy 2D CAD files
  • Paper-based engineering drawings

Result: Fully parametric 3D models ready for testing and manufacturing.

Parametric Modeling & Assembly Design

Build intelligent models that adapt to change. We provide:

  • Fully editable parametric parts
  • Complex assembly modeling
  • Motion-ready components for kinematic testing
  • Design intent firmly built into the model tree

Your designs stay flexible and scalable.

Reverse Engineering

Have an existing physical component but no technical data?

We recreate it into a precise, native 3D CAD model optimized for:

  • Design modification and updates
  • Performance improvement
  • Manufacturing replication

Manufacturing Drawings

The crucial final step before production. We deliver clear, unambiguous documentation:

  • Production-ready 2D drawings
  • Fully dimensioned technical documentation (GD&T)
  • Strict tolerance specifications
  • Print-ready file formats (PDF, DXF, DWG)

Validate Before You Manufacture

Sketch2CAD integrates simulation early in the design process to reduce risk, eliminate guesswork, and minimize prototyping costs.

Structural Analysis (FEA)

Ensure your components can withstand real-world forces before a single part is cut or printed.

  • Stress distribution analysis
  • Deformation and displacement mapping
  • Static and dynamic load testing
  • Factor of safety evaluation

CFD Flow Analysis

Optimize the performance of designs interacting with fluids or thermal changes.

  • Internal and external airflow simulation
  • Fluid movement and velocity analysis
  • Pressure drop and distribution
  • Thermal behavior and heat transfer insights

"By simulating performance before production, you avoid costly physical prototype failures."
