03 / Prototype design

CAD & prototype design.

Move from an early requirement, sketch, or existing part toward CAD, technical definition, and a practical prototype path.

Make the design reviewable.

The exact deliverable follows the project stage and the next decision that must be made.

  • CAD concept development
  • Part and assembly modeling
  • Technical drawings
  • Interface and design review
  • Prototype planning and iteration

What helps a design project start well.

Existing information does not need to be complete, but it should identify the function and constraints that matter.

  • Purpose, user, environment, and required function
  • Envelope, interfaces, loads, motion, and utilities
  • Materials or manufacturing constraints already known
  • Existing sketches, CAD, drawings, photographs, or reference parts
  • Prototype objective, target quantity, and timeline

Deliverables follow the next decision.

A project may require a concept model, assembly definition, manufacturing drawing, design review, or prototype plan. Nouvex confirms ownership, file formats, revision expectations, fabrication coordination, and acceptance criteria during scoping.

Bring the requirement, sketch, or existing part.
