Design and modelling of parts and assemblies, in Autodesk Inventor / AutoCAD.
Clear, manufacturable drawings for production, repair, or quoting.
Bent sheet metal and custom components, designed to be made and remade easily.
Design and assembly support for small and medium industrial projects.
Practical repair and restoration work that gets equipment back in service.
A clear-eyed look at the problem, with a realistic plan and cost before work starts.
Good fit for: businesses without a drafter in-house, teams with overflow drafting work, and anyone who needs a custom part or a repair done right.
Equipment arrived in poor condition. Cadian assessed the repair cost, prepared the plans, arranged and fabricated the pieces needed, and completed structural repairs while respecting the original dimensions. A professional, economical solution that got the equipment back in service quickly. The customer was happy with the result.
A reception table designed and built from scratch for handling incoming merchandise: a welded steel frame with a wood worktop, a full length lower shelf in steel mesh for storage underneath, and casters so it can be moved and placed where the work is. Made for the space and the job, not bought off a shelf.
A vertical panel frame in aluminum extrusion, with adjustable rails and clamp uprights to fit the panel size. The frame pivots on two steel posts, vertical for wiring at a comfortable height and tilting toward horizontal for loading, with adjustable pivot height, on a wide steel base with locking casters. Simple, practical, economical.
Floor plans and 3D views prepared for a corporate office renovation: survey of the existing space, demolition and change notes, and a final layout plan with dimensions and material quantities. Clear drawings the renovation team could work from directly.
Complete floor plan for a sports bar: kitchen, bar and counter, table and movable-seat zones with the seat count for each area, booths, terrace and exits, with the capacity calculations. Clear plans that made the layout easy to put in place.
A rolling tool chest designed for solo trades workers who need an extra pair of hands: complete design with assembly drawings, section views and a full parts list: moulded ABS shell, steel hardware, and gas-spring-assisted shelves. Simple, robust, and designed to be built.
