Concept → Production-ready CAD

Engineering for parts that have to fit.

An independent engineering consultancy for automotive and consumer products. We design new parts, scan and reverse engineer existing ones, and develop composite components, all to the tolerances your project needs.

Who we work with

From individuals to international corporations

We value every customer, whether you are an individual with a project of your own or an international corporation. Every project gets our full attention to detail and our best engineering.

We work at whatever level a project needs, from a quick scan to a multi-year series product development cycle. From the smallest job to the challenge others have called impossible, we are ready to take it on.

Experience

23years of engineering experience

Our engineering team brings 23 years of engineering experience across automotive, motorsport, marine and defence work. These are the areas we know in depth.

Composite bodywork and structures

Battery pack design

High-speed amphibious vehicles

America’s Cup hydrofoil design

Services

Four disciplines, one engineering team

Most projects use more than one. A worn part gets scanned, reverse engineered into clean CAD, improved, then remade in carbon fibre. We can take it the whole way or pick up a single stage.

Product Design

From a sketch or a problem statement to fully detailed, manufacturable 3D CAD and drawings.

Product design →

Reverse Engineering

Rebuild existing or obsolete parts as parametric CAD with design intent, ready to modify or remake.

Reverse engineering →

3D Scanning

Accurate scan data of parts, assemblies and vehicles, plus comparison against nominal CAD.

3D scanning →

Composites

Carbon and glass fibre component design, laminate specification and tooling for prototypes and low volume.

Interactive example

See the difference between a part and its drawing

Scan data shows what a part really is. Overlaid on the nominal CAD, it shows wear, distortion and manufacturing variation you cannot see by eye. Our 3D scanning page has a live viewer: spin, zoom and fade between a nominal brake disc and a worn one.

How a project runs

From brief to released data

01

Brief

We agree the requirement, constraints, tolerances and the files you need at the end.

02

Capture

Scan, measure or gather existing data, drawings and samples.

03

Model

Build parametric CAD, laminate definitions and assemblies.

04

Validate

Check fit and form against scan data, prototypes or the mating parts.

05

Deliver

Native or neutral CAD, drawings and reports in the formats your suppliers use.

Sectors

Where we work

Motorsport

Lightweight composite parts, scanning of cars and components, and quick-turnaround design work for race and track programmes.

Composites · Aero · Scanning · Fast turnaround

Automotive

Bodywork, trim, brackets and aero parts for repairs, specialist builds and low-volume production. Matching damaged or discontinued parts so a vehicle can be put back as it was.

Body panels · Trim & interiors · Brackets · Damage assessment

Aerospace

Scanning and reverse engineering of aircraft parts and structures, from small components up to full-size historic aircraft.

Digital twins · Reverse engineering · Inspection

Defence

Scanning, reverse engineering and composite design for defence vehicles, equipment and components, including replacement parts for legacy platforms.

Reverse engineering · Obsolete parts · Composites · Inspection

Restoration

Recreating obsolete or damaged parts from scan data, and archiving original cars and aircraft so they can be restored to their original shape later.

Obsolete parts · Archiving · Remanufacture

Product design

New products taken from first concept to production-ready design for brands and start-ups, including finding and assessing the manufacturer.

Concepts · Prototypes · DFM · Manufacturer selection

Consumer products

Housings, enclosures, mechanisms and accessories taken from first concept to tooling-ready design, with manufacturing considered from the start.

Enclosures · Mechanisms · Injection moulding · 3D printing
