CAD design for mechanical engineering and industrial components

From the first idea to production-ready CAD data, BEICK develops individual parts, assemblies, fixtures and customer-specific solutions with a consistent focus on function, manufacturability, installation and maintenance.

We support companies with new developments, modifications to existing designs and the remanufacture of unavailable components. By combining design engineering, 3D printing and practical industrial experience, we create solutions that can be manufactured and used in practice.

Our design services

  • Parametric 3D CAD models of individual parts and assemblies
  • Customer-specific components, fixtures and assembly aids
  • Modification and optimization of existing designs
  • Production-ready part and assembly drawings
  • Parts lists, exploded views and assembly documents
  • Motion, installation-space and collision assessments

CAD SYSTEMS · DATA EXCHANGE

3D CAD with Autodesk Fusion and Inventor

We use Autodesk Fusion and Autodesk Inventor for design work. These systems allow us to create parametric 3D models, individual parts, assemblies, technical drawings and production-ready documentation.

Output and exchange formats

  • STEP and SAT for CAD data exchange
  • STL and 3MF for prototypes and 3D printing
  • DXF and DWG for drawings and manufacturing
  • PDF for technical documents and documentation
  • Native Autodesk files by agreement

Required data and the level of detail are agreed before the project begins so that manufacturing, suppliers and installation teams can work from clearly defined documents.

MANUFACTURABLE · ASSEMBLY-READY · MAINTAINABLE

Design for manufacture and assembly

Good design considers the subsequent manufacturing process from an early stage. Wall thicknesses, radii, tolerances, tool access, standard parts and assembly routes are therefore coordinated during development.

This can reduce unnecessary production steps, costly rework and later assembly problems. On request, we optimize existing components with regard to weight, stability, material use or more economical manufacturing processes.

Technical assessment

Installation conditions, movement envelopes and possible collisions are checked during design. Where appropriate, we use the simulation tools available in Autodesk Fusion and Inventor to support plausibility checks. Verifiable calculations or certification form part of a project only when expressly agreed.

PRESERVE EXISTING PLANT · IMPROVE COMPONENTS

Design modifications and spare-part development

If drawings are missing or a component is no longer available, we develop a new CAD model from existing samples, measurements or documentation. The original component can be reproduced or deliberately improved.

Typical applications

  • Unavailable machine and plant components
  • Worn brackets, guides and adapters
  • Design changes for conversions and modernization
  • Spare parts for older production equipment
  • Optimization of failure-prone components
  • Adaptation to changed installation spaces or connections

Existing sketches, old drawings, photographs and sample parts can provide the starting point for technical reconstruction.

COMBINING DESIGN AND 3D PRINTING

Prototypes and functional samples

Design stages can be produced as prototypes or functional samples before final manufacture. In-house 3D printing enables rapid checks of dimensions, installation conditions, handling and assembly.

Necessary changes can be identified before tooling or metalworking costs are incurred. Depending on the later application, visual models, assembly aids, functional parts and small batches in engineering plastics are possible.

  • Installation and collision checks using a physical model
  • Ergonomic and handling tests
  • Functional samples for coordination
  • Assembly aids, gauges and fixtures
  • Engineering plastic parts and small batches

CLEAR PROJECT PROCESS

From the first discussion to finished documentation

1. Define requirements

Initial situation, installation space, function, loads and the intended manufacturing process are agreed together.

2. Develop the concept

We develop a technically sound and economically feasible solution.

3. Design and coordination

The CAD model is created and coordinated with you at defined stages.

4. Check and optimize

Installation conditions, movement, collisions, assembly and manufacturability are checked.

5. Documentation and handover

You receive the agreed CAD data, drawings, parts lists and other production documents.
