3D solid modeling is where all the magic begins. Whether it be modeling entire assemblies or individual parts, this design service provides a realistic idea of how the final product will look and provides the necessary road map to get there by guiding the design, simulation, and manufacturing for any part of the final assembly. Through this process, we help perfect the design of the product through the creation of CAD drawings, considering the manufacturing process that will be used to ensure efficiency and a smooth transition to manufacturing, all while making informed decisions about the manufacturing of the product.

Our CAD designers and engineers work closely with you, utilizing solid and surface modeling tools to create stunning 3D models for a wide range of products, industries, applications, and innovative uses. Utilizing 3D CAD modeling technology, we are also able to speed up the process of developing parts of all sizes and assemblies of varying complexity, saving valuable time and resources simultaneously. Our CAD drafters primarily utilize a solid modeling software known as SolidWorks but are capable of modeling in Inventor as well. Contact us today to learn more about our 3D CAD Drafting Services to bring your dream to life.

Our engineers are capable of handling your 2D drawing needs and take the time to understand your process and engineering standards with our CAD drafting services. This process enables us to deliver accurate drawings that save time and reduce costs. We will provide a high quality drawing the first time with drawings specific to the needs of the customer and that are ready to go straight to manufacturing.

You can send your drawings in a variety of 2D drawing formats, and even a sketch or hand drawing will work. We welcome the challenge! All 2D drawings will be provided as DXF, DWG, PDF, or SolidWork drawing.

We can also help you convert drawings to the platform of your choice. Some of the most common file conversions include:

• DXF

• DWG

• Adobe Photoshop

• Adobe Illustrator

• Parasolid (.x_t, .x_b)

• STEP

• ACIS

• PDF

• IGES

• STL

• CATIA Graphics

• Pro/E Part (.prt)

• Pro/E Assembly (.asm)

• Unigraphics

• Rhino (.3dm)

• IFC (Industry Foundation Classes)

• Inventor Part (.ipt)

• Inventor Assembly (.iam)

• Solid Edge Part (.psm)

• Solid Edge Assembly (.asm)

• CADKEY (.prt, .ckd)

Perception Engineering is your quick turn solution for highly accurate 2D to 3D part conversions. Have you experienced the problem of sending parts to a manufacturer where a 3D model is required? Or are you a manufacturer that requires 3D models for production equipment and programming? Not to worry, our experienced staff of CAD designers and engineers can quickly and accurately convert your 2D drawings to 3D SolidWorks files to help you stay on schedule throughout the design and manufacturing process. We can also convert hand sketches into 3D SolidWorks files and have a trusted network for anything that might happen to fall out of our core competencies.

It is our goal to be a reliable and economical resource and partner for our customers. We are experienced and flexible with our process so that we can create a unique quick turn solution to provide high quality accurate conversions that fit our client’s needs.
