3D Design and Draughting 

Ian offers a professional and fully confidential mechanical and sheet metal design and draughting service at very economical rates.

The quickest way to produce 2D drawings is to produce a 3D model, then create as many views as you want in 2D by placing the 3D view in the orientation you want. Once the 3D model is created, full multi-view 2D drawings can be created in seconds.

Solidworks is probably the premier 3D draughting package, and Ian is highly skilled in its use.

Ian has a history of creating machinery and items that are innovative, simple as possible, easy to manufacture and reliable.

You can see some of his designs in the Gallery.

Stress and Deflection Analysis

Ian is skilled in stress and deflection  analysis, both through the Solidworks inbuilt application, and by traditional calculation, and the application of appropriate Australian Standards. This can save you a lot of time and money in either preventing premature failure of components due to under sizing, or reducing costs and weight of finished products, by using his services.

Solidworks Private Tutoring

You can be tutored in any aspect of Solidworks or draughting in general, at a similar hourly cost to attending a Solidworks training course. The advantages are :-

You get to choose what areas of Solidworks you are trained in.
You can choose the time of day and the hours per week you get tutored.
Tutoring is one on one, so you get the most from the time you spend.

This service only available in the Northern Rivers NSW Australia.

Laser Cutting, CNC Punching &  CNC Machining  Flat Pattern and Profile Production

If you want to take advantage of the precision, speed and cost reductions that Laser Cutting and Folding, CNC Punching, and CNC Machining can provide, contact Ian for advice on the most applicable process, and to produce the files that the manufacturers require.

Ian regularly uses up to 7 Laser Cutters, all having specialist areas, and a number of CNC Punch and machine shops, as well as numerous General Machining and Welding services.

Often with steel plate up to 25mm thick, the cost of laser cutting is little more than the material cost alone. Even 1 off pieces can be cost effective.

All types of material can be cut and/or folded, even plastics. Even sections like RHS and pipe up to 250mm or more can be cut to produce parts suitable for your application. The applications are almost boundless.

Electronics Design 

Small and powerful micro-controller controlled circuits are a specialty. There is little that can't be done with a programmed micro-controller. Check out some of these designs Power Master Speed Controls & Electronics. Ian builds circuits from scratch with his own facilities, and programs PIC micro-controllers to operate them. The possibilities are endless.
