Design & Engineering tools

We have an extensive toolbox containing tools that we can utilise when appropriate, ensuring that we are in sync with your tool suite and that we "speak your language". We are able to select the most appropriate tool from the following:

• 3D Mechanical design & 2D documentation using SolidWorks 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 CAD software.
• 3D Mechanical design & 2D documentation using Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 2 and Wildfire 4 CAD software
• Design file sharing via eDrawings and Adobe's 3D .pdf (link to an example part)
• Thermal Management using FloTHERM by Mentor Graphics and SolidWorks Flow Simulation Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software
• Structural Analysis using ANSYS Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software

Methodology tools

• Design for Manufacture & Assembly (DfMA) using methodologies from Lean Design and Boothroyd Dewhurst Inc. (BDI)
• PRINCE2 practitioners for project management
• Design for Six Sigma (DfSS) black belts
