Specialisations

I have a completely self-contained office including a license to use the latest CAD - Creo & Simulator (formerly ProE & ProMechanica) to assist in developing my designs, as well as using supporting software such as TK Solver, MITcalc, Kisssoft and bespoke gear calculation programs.

CAD data is often transferred daily to Customers' Windchill servers to maintain constant updates.
