From Concept to Precision Reality

At ND Precision, design and development are not just support functions — they are the foundation of precision manufacturing. Our in-house engineering team plays a critical role in transforming client concepts into high-performance, production-ready components. Whether it’s an aerospace bracket, defense-grade enclosure, surgical implant, or automotive housing, we begin with a deep understanding of the application, operating environment, and engineering challenges.

Our experts integrate mechanical design expertise with advanced CAD/CAM systems to ensure every design is optimized for both functionality and manufacturability. From geometric tolerancing and material selection to thermal and structural considerations, we take a holistic approach to design intent. By embedding Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) principles into our workflow, we help clients reduce costs, minimize iterations, and accelerate time-to-market.

But we don’t just design parts — we partner with clients to refine concepts, validate feasibility, and rapidly prototype solutions with agility and precision. This early-stage collaboration leads to smoother production cycles and fewer downstream issues.

With ND Precision, you’re not just getting a design service — you’re gaining a committed technical partner, dedicated to engineering your vision with clarity, confidence, and excellence.

Our Core Design Capabilities

At ND Precision, our design team combines advanced tools with real-world manufacturing expertise to develop components that are precise, efficient, and production-ready. Our core capabilities include:

  • 3D CAD Modeling
    Creation of fully parametric, high-precision models that serve as the foundation for production, prototyping, and simulation workflows.

  • 2D Drafting & Detailing
    Generation of detailed, shop-ready drawings complete with GD&T annotations, BOMs, material specifications, and process notes to ensure clarity and consistency in manufacturing.

  • Design for Manufacturability (DFM)
    Engineering parts for optimal manufacturability — reducing material waste, machining complexity, and overall production time and cost.

  • Simulation Support (On Request)
    Structural, thermal, and tolerance simulations available on a per-project basis to validate design performance under real-world conditions.

  • Reverse Engineering
    Redesign and digital reconstruction of legacy or unavailable parts using physical samples — enabling modern manufacturing compatibility and quality improvement.

    Development Process

    At ND Precision, our design process is engineered to deliver clarity, precision, and speed — from the initial conversation to the final production drawing. We collaborate closely with clients to transform ideas into manufacturable, high-performance solutions through a structured and flexible approach:

    Requirement Gathering
    We begin by understanding your application, goals, tolerances, material preferences, and functional needs — ensuring our design intent aligns with your expectations.

    Concept Design
    Early-stage models, mockups, and design iterations are developed to explore form, fit, and function — ensuring the concept is viable, efficient, and production-ready.

    Validation & Prototyping
    We support physical prototyping and real-time testing to gather feedback, evaluate performance, and refine designs for optimal results.

    Design Finalization
    Once approved, we provide production-ready documentation, including detailed 2D drawings with GD&T, BOMs, and full release packages.

    Ongoing Engineering Support
    Our role doesn’t end at design finalization — we continue to support during production with refinements, design adjustments, and process optimizations as needed.
