CAD CAM Computer-Aided Manufacturing

CAD CAM

Our CAD engineers, working with fully supported software systems, offer speed and accuracy, from receipt of model/drawing , through revision to part production.

OUR COMMITMENT

CLA has a commitment to ongoing training and software updates. Our CAD engineers will begin involvement with a job at initial RFQ, whether that’s machining from solid billet or castings. They will advise on design and manufacture of fixtures if necessary, before programming and set up. They will prove the accuracy of the job through first off inspection, with ongoing communication to ensure all customer requirements are implemented, including any adjustments to prototype design. 

 

We offer fast and accurate programming and production from 3 to 5 axis. Our time-served engineers are trained in CAD programming on a fully supported and updated Edgecam CAD system, which is fully integrated with our CMM.

 

Our CAD engineers will programme from 3D models in formats including STP, IGES and CATIA. We will work with customers to adapt our CAD programmes to any up-issues. 

Our CAD CAM software is up-to-date and compatible with the most recent technological advancements. This commitment to using the current version of our software ensures high-quality design output. Software Engineering Design principles are integrated into our workflow to manage complex systems efficiently. This ensures that all types of diagrams, from simple workflows to intricate engineering drawings, are executed with precision and clarity.

 

We maintain a robust knowledge base that supports our engineers, enabling them to resolve any design challenges efficiently. Our simple workflow ensures successful onboarding of new projects. 

 

By focusing on the design of tools and implementing computer-aided design systems, we optimise manufacturing time without compromising on quality. Our engineering drawings and quality drawings are tailored to meet the specific requirements of each client. The ability to work from accurate and detailed scaled drawings is key to our operations, allowing us to serve the needs of the engineering industry effectively.
