3D CAD Modeling
Speedie utilises Solid Edge, SolidWorks & Autodesk CAD software for our 3D modelling. Models can be delivered to the customer in various formats (Solid Edge, SolidWorks, Pro/Engineer, IGES, STEP, Parasolid, and STL). All solid models are created using a clean and efficient style; notes and comments are added where necessary to a neatly organised feature tree. If applicable, skeletons and/or equations are added to facilitate design and configuration changes. Assemblies receive the same treatment with the addition of exploded views where applicable. Our CAD services include 2D to 3D conversions, taking sketches to 3D models, and general 3D CAD work.
2D Drafting and Technical Drawings
Like our 3D modelling, SolidWorks CAD software is utilised for all 2D technical drawings. Drawings are available to the customer in various formats (SolidWorks, DXF, DWG, PDF, and JPEG). All dimensions and tolerances conform to the ANSI Y14.5 1994 standard with proper GD&T used throughout as needed.
Photorealistic Renderings
Our rendering software can transform a 3D model into a realistic looking image; many different materials and scenes are available to showcase your design. Renderings are useful for visualisation purposes when aesthetics are of importance and can also be used to market a product before it goes to production or to convey an idea to investors.
3D Printing
We also utilise 3D Printing technologies to not only to produce semi-functional prototypes but also as part of our iterative design process to identify design improvements, mechanical analysis and assembly requirements.
