3D DESIGN AND CAM
Bring your ideas to reality with Westurn’s 3D Design and CAD/CAM (Computer-aided Design and Computer-aided Manufacturing)
3D DESIGN, 3D DRAWING, CAM PROGRAMMING
MECHANICAL DRAFTING
We can assist with all your 3D Design and digital prototyping, design, modelling and drawing needs. We can provide 3D design models or drawings along with your manufactured part.
REVERSE ENGINEERING
RE is the process of creating a digital duplicate of an object. Parts are dimensionally measured and 3D modelled, fits and tolerances are matched and material properties recorded. This can be used for manufacturing, design analysis and visualisation, or digital archiving.
CAM PROGRAMMING
Computer Aided Manufacturing is used for transferring 3D design models straight to manufacturing. This significantly increases the speed of machine programming and allows for quick manufacture of complex parts.
PRODUCT AND PART 3D DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE
Reverse Engineering
Need a part? No Drawing? Westurn can help! Reverse Engineering is the process of recreating an object by working backwards from the finished part. Parts are dimensionally measured, fits and tolerances are matched, and material properties recorded. A fully featured parametric 3D CAD model is created, meaning parts can easily be modified to suit your requirements.
The resulting digital model can then be used for CAM programming, creating manufacturing or “as-built” drawings, design analysis and visualisation, or digital archiving.
The Westurn team can assist in bringing all your mechanical ideas to reality. As well as 3D modelling physical items, we can create CAD models of any part from existing drawings, from basic napkin sketches or even from the vision in your head. Our team is highly skilled in solid modelling, including the creation of fully-featured mechanical assemblies.
3D Design - From Concept to Production
Westurn’s experienced designers have a strong focus on Design-for-Manufacture and Design-for-Assembly, meaning we can help you find better ways to manufacture and build your parts to keep costs down. We can also handle the design of your mechanical components or assemblies for you, from concept to manufacturing. Our 3D CAD modelling abilities, combined with our manufacturing facilities, allow us to easily prototype parts digitally, and progress to a finished part very quickly.
Westurn offers a full range of drafting services, including;
- engineering drawings for machining, sheet metal or fabrication,
- concept drawings,
- 2D to 3D design conversions or legacy drawing conversions, and
- documentation such as Bill of Materials.
3D models or drawings can be provided along with your manufactured part. We can also assist with FEA and design simulation and analysis in order to optimise parts for strength or weight.
Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM)
Innovation is in our DNA
Innovation is what we do at Westurn – as evidenced by our long history of patents and product launches. We are design thinkers as well as business thinkers and have a strong understanding of how people interact with designs.
Westurn can assist with product design projects, from concept to manufacturing.
Our team has extensive experience in concept development, 3D design, 3D modelling, digital and physical prototyping, visualisation and photorealistic rendering, design analysis, product manufacturing, and more.
