The core of what CAD TECH does. Take something from a sketch, an idea, or a reference part and produce the full manufacturing documentation a fabricator needs to build it - accurately, first time.
Because Aaron has worked in fabrication shops, he understands what goes into a drawing that actually gets used. Not just the geometry - the weld access, the material selection, the way a fabricator reads a BOM. That knowledge is in every drawing that leaves CAD TECH.
Hand sketches or dimensioned rough drawings - enough to understand the intent.
An existing part or component you need replicated or modified.
Existing CAD model that needs manufacturing drawings produced from it.
A clear description of what you need - CAD TECH can work from a conversation.
Yes. CAD TECH works with clients Australia-wide. Most drafting work is handled remotely, with files sent back and forth digitally, so where you're based isn't a barrier.
All modelling and drafting is done in SolidWorks. Finished work can be supplied in the format your workshop or engineer needs, from native SolidWorks files through to STEP, DXF and PDF drawing packs.
Yes. Plenty of good parts start life as a sketch on a job sheet, a photo of a worn-out component, or a description over the phone. CAD TECH builds the 3D model from your sketch or idea, sends it through for approval, then produces the full manufacturing drawings.
Ten years on the tools as a boilermaker before drafting. The drawings are laid out the way a fabricator actually works: tolerances that suit the process, weld prep that can be done with the gear in a normal shop, and bend lines that account for what steel really does in a press.
