DESIGN

  

Whether you’re an existing company in need of a new component, or a new business needing something designed from scratch. Our ISM design team have all the skills to help you.

With over 30 years of experience designing components and assemblies for hundreds of clients, ISM uses state of the art CAD CAM technology to turn our client’s concepts into reality. Our team can do anything from turning your hand drawing into a 3-D model, or working with your own pre-existing designs. For more information about the benefits and specifications of what we can offer, please read below.

Specifications

We can take your data in various formats including PDF drawings, DWG files and most 3D CAD files including igs. Step and native parts such as .CATParts.

Where 3D CAD models can be provided to us for manufacturing, we can give guidance to aid sheet metal unfolding resulting in quicker quotations and shorter manufacturing lead times. Many of our long term customers have worked with us to cater for this with great success.

Benefits

Design for manufacture is one of the single largest factors associated with high manufacturing costs. We can advise on this to minimize unit prices along with associated lead times. As manufacturers, having the ability to design in-house and interrogate modern CAD systems allows us to overcome the daily challenges of producing complex components often without contacting the customer.

  • Quality assured

  • Customer ease

  • Minimise unit prices

  • State of the art CAD programs

  • Cut lead times

  • Experienced in-house team

Case Studies

Petrol Forecourt

Sign Design

We designed and manufactured this forecourt sign for a leading supermarket, producing drawings including stress calculations to the customers requirements, before finally manufacturing it through to installation handover.

Domestic Client

External Staircase Design

We designed this galvanized staircase specifically to allow assembly in an area of poor access. We managed the design from liasing with architects and building control, delivering a full set of assembly drawings along with the finished staircase kit of components.

IFPL

Masking design

We designed a masking system for an existing customer when their end user required intricate paint masking at high volumes. As a solution we designed a bespoke low cost injection moulded silicone masking system, and maintained fast manufacturing times.
