CAD DESIGN SERVICES

The work was done quickly, thoroughly, and with many value-added ideas that improved the quality of our machines.”

PRODUCT DESIGN

Our team of designers can produce the designs you need, whether it be a simple concept or the complete design of a complex multi-part assembly.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

Problem solving and creation of innovative designs is a key part of Hawk’s value proposition.

Our experienced staff has achieved a high level of focus and undertakes any research needed to deliver a complete solution.

REVERSE ENGINEERING

Existing products that have undergone modifications often need “as built” features translated into CAD prior to manufacturing.

Our team regularly brings the reality of physical parts into CAD components.

RAPID PROTOTYPES

As product development cycles accelerate, our CAD designers can prepare your product designs for production on plastic or metal based rapid prototyping machines. As we move your CAD design into physical parts, your organization can more accurately evaluate the design.

FILE CONVERSIONS

Change is constant in today’s business. File format conversions require both experience and a trained eye for confirming the final output. Leverage our experience for fast turnaround and accuracy.

“We have used Hawk Technologies as our exclusive CAD producer for the past 15 years.

Their team has learned what we need and how our systems work—this takes hours off the time required to complete the equipment design and system layout and keeps our projects on schedule.”
