Service 05 / 06
3D modelling.
We turn your materials into a 3D model ready for production. Parametric CAD models, models for 3D printing and visualisations in one place.
Based on your input
Scope agreed in advance
STEP · STL · OBJ
Outputs
Autodesk Inventor
CAD software
Through to production
Model goes straight to manufacture
Process
From idea to file
Brief
Send us your materials and describe what you need. We will assess what can be created from them and agree the scope, format and deadline.
Modelling
We create the model according to the brief. For more complex projects, we send an interim version for approval.
Revision
We incorporate your comments. The extent of revisions included in the price is agreed in advance.
Handover
The final file in the agreed format. If you also want it manufactured, we can pass the model straight to production.
Types of modelling
What we can design
It depends on the purpose: whether the model is going into production, to print, or only for visualisation.
CAD · Manufacturing
Parametric models
Precise parts for CNC milling, moulded parts and moulds. Dimensions, tolerances and drawing documentation; STEP format.
3D printing
Models for printing
Optimised for FDM, SLA and SLS. Orientation, supports and tolerances; STL format.
Visualisation
Product renders
Realistic 3D models for marketing, presentations and e-shops; OBJ or FBX format.
Personalisation
Unique items
Trophies, decorations, jewellery and gifts designed from scratch to your ideas.
Reverse engineering
Model from a scan
Converting a scan into a parametric CAD model. Spare parts and modifications of existing objects.
Documentation
Technical drawings
A 2D drawing from the 3D model, dimensioned and ready for manufacture.
Frequently asked questions
FAQ – 3D modelling
01What materials do you need from me?
The more precise your input materials, the better the result and the fewer revisions. Useful inputs include dimensions, a drawing, photographs of the part, an existing scan or a sample. A hand sketch is usually only a starting point, and dimensions and requirements typically need to be added. When you send an enquiry, we will advise what to add.
02What is the minimum order value?
For small orders, a minimum order value of 30 € excl. VAT applies. You can find an indicative price estimate in the calculator.
03How long does modelling take?
It depends on the complexity of the part. We will always confirm the deadline in advance.
04Will I also get a 2D drawing?
Yes, we can prepare a technical drawing in PDF or DWG format for an additional charge.
05What if I also want it manufactured?
Modelling and manufacturing with us is the ideal combination. You save time and avoid errors when files are passed between suppliers.
Tell us about your idea.
