Precision Metal Part Design

What is Computer Aided Design used for in Metal Manufacturing?

Computer aided design or CAD is part of the initial steps in visualizing your part or component. This involves using computer software to create a 3D image that maps out the shape and dimensions of the desired part. The use of CAD models in metal manufacturing in conjunction with computer aided manufacturing (CAM) allows fabrication companies to craft metal parts with extreme detail and precision.

A major benefit of using CAD is that it lets you check the tool path before the material is cut, saving you the cost of making an incorrect cut into an expensive metal. CAD simulation also lets you identify how long production runs will take, which is great for projecting supply and delivery times.

Bring Your Project From Design to Reality

From well thought out designs to concept sketches on napkins, we’ve helped clients with projects in all stages of development. Regardless of if you know the exact specs of your part or need our help, we’ll work with you to draw something up and consult you on what solutions will provide the best results.

Sometimes you already have the part you need, but need to mass produce it. With our coordinate measuring machine (CMM), we’re able to reverse engineer and replicate your part down to the last cut.

Advantages of CAD, CAM, and CMM

Using the latest in computer-aided design and manufacturing tools provides many advantages in comparison to manual design drafting and fabrication processes. Computer assistance offers many benefits to metal fabrication including:

Greater visualization for preproduction review
Increased manufacturing precision and reproduction accuracy
Reduced material waste
Reverse engineering capabilities
Allows for precision quality check
Greatly increases the speed of entire fabrication process

Digitize Your Concepts and Drawings

Need 3D imaging of your components? Ask about getting your ideas turned into CAD models to produce manufacturing drawings, realistic concept photos, flash video, and more.

Using CAD and CMM, we’re able to provide clients with accurate digital drawings in almost any format for use on brochures, websites, and presentations.

Protect Your Designs and IP with Rembar

Control over designs and intellectual property is one of the biggest concern many companies have when outsourcing fabrication needs. Before you hand over your designs to any metal fabrication company, it’s important to know where your intellectual property will end up.

Rembar is located along the Hudson River in Dobbs Ferry, New York and everything we do from design to manufacturing is done in-house. That means no dealing with the risk of out of country vendors. Every part and component we create is made and tested in America.
