Quick answers
Which CAD software do you use?
SolidWorks and Fusion 360 mostly. You get native files and STEP.
Can you start from my sketch or old CAD?
Yes — a sketch, STEP, IGES or native files, plus the PCB model.
Who owns the CAD?
You do.
Tell us where your project is
Sketch, prototype or finished design. We'll tell you which steps it needs, and the cost.
