Professional Outsourced Sheet Metal Design Services
Sheet metal design can be found in almost any industry and countless applications. You might use sheet metal within the aerospace, automotive, medical device, and defense industries, to name a few. How do we know that? Our sheet metal experts at CAD/CAM Services have designed unique parts for each of these industries.
Outsourcing your sheet metal designs to a professional CAD company is a great way to save time and money. If you pick the right outsourced CAD team, you’ll be left with high-quality sheet metal parts that can be manufactured easily, and meet all of your design requirements. The best part? It’s done quicker and more affordably than you can probably do in-house.
What Are Sheet Metal Design Services ?
A sheet metal design service is when you pay an outside company to handle your sheet metal designs. For instance, you could pay our team at CAD/CAM Services to do all of the 3D modeling, and create 2D flat patterns of the sheet metal for your upcoming project.
Since we are outsourced engineers, you’re not paying us a salary or benefits, nor are you paying for our time off. You’re strictly paying for engineering efforts that go into your project.
With our sheet metal design services, we typically structure each project as an hourly or per-part price, and we tell you all of the pricing ahead of time. That means no surprises when you get the final invoice.
Our engineering experts have access to all of the major CAD programs, so we’ll make native CAD files. These files will have more information, and make your life easier when it comes time to start manufacturing.
Why Sheet Metal Design Services Matters ?
Sheet metal designs can make or break the success of your next project. Something as simple as assuming the wrong bending radius on a sheet can completely ruin your design. This is why it’s so important to outsource to the right sheet metal design company.
Designing a part out of sheet metal comes with a different set of rules than designing a part with standard stock metal — if you don’t know the difference, your project is doomed. Our team of over 100 engineers and draftsmen have explicit experience in the sheet metal space. We know the ins and outs of sheet metal design, and we use a number of common best practices to get the most out of each part.
With sheet metal, an inexperienced designer won’t be able to catch an issue until it’s too late. You might not know there was a problem until the part was cut, bent, and sent to your doorstep. By then, you wasted hundreds or thousands of dollars, and weeks or months of your time.
Avoid those headaches. Don’t waste time or money on your next design, just choose our sheet metal engineers at CAD/CAM Services.
What Goes into Sheet Metal Design Services from CAD/CAM Services ?
Our sheet metal design services can vary a lot from project to project. Some companies just want us to do a final check and optimization of their existing sheet metal designs, most companies want us to create sheet metal designs from scratch, and others want to use us for a part of a larger sheet metal design.
In any case, our services are generally the same: we’re here to provide as much help as we possibly can. We design sheet metal parts in 3D CAD and turn them into manufacturable 2D flat layouts that your machine shop can use.
It all starts with a simple conversation with our engineers. Let us know what you want, when you want it, and how you want the designs delivered. From there, we’ll handle all of the engineering. We deliver files using encrypted services that the DoD trusts, so your trade secrets will stay safe.
We will assign a dedicated Project Manager to the project, and they’ll be your direct line of contact if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or want an update.
Our Sheet Metal Design Services Include:
- 3D CAD Modeling
- 2D “Flat Pattern” Layouts for Manufacturing
- Engineering Simulation, As Needed
- Reverse Engineering
- Concepting, Prototyping, and Iterative Design
- Production-Quality Models and Renderings
- Assembly and Modeling Work
- And Much More (Including Custom Services)
Benefits of Sheet Metal Design Services from CAD/CAM Services
We’ve designed entire yachts and aircraft out of sheet metal, plus countless smaller parts. Companies across industries keep choosing CAD/CAM Services for our exceptional sheet metal design, and there are plenty of reasons why:
Better reliability and consistency.
Two great words to describe our in-house engineers are “reliable” and “consistent”. We have a number of quality checks throughout the design process, but the bottom line is that our success can be attributed to our exceptionally talented engineers. They put together designs that continually exceed expectations, and you’ll quickly see the CAD Perfect® difference when you work with us.
Save time and money in the machine shop.
We use sheet metal design for manufacturability (DFM) best practices in every design. The result? Parts that are easier and faster to make in the machine shop. This can save you a considerable amount of time and money.
Fewer headaches during the design process.
Our favorite part of taking over your sheet metal design work is that you don’t have to do it yourself. You probably know all the headaches that go into making a sheet metal design, even an incredibly simple flanged part. Avoid all of those headaches and let our pros handle the work.
Tackle bigger projects and tighter timelines.
Tapping into our resources at CAD/CAM Services is a quick way to temporarily grow your engineering team. With our help, you can hit tighter timelines, handle more work, and get through bigger projects with success.
Get designs that work the first time.
We take a lot of pride in our work, and we have over 35 years of experience when it comes to sheet metal designs. With that said, you can trust our designs. You’ll get parts that work right the first time, and don’t require you going back to the machine shop and asking for expensive changes.
