designplus,
founded by Ken Sanders,
is a Computer Aided Design (CAD) company based in Port Coquitlam B.C.
What
we do........
We take the idea that's floating around in your head or sketched on
a piece of paper and bring it into reality. It can be anything from
a small plastic part, manual or automated assembly equipment, jigs and
fixtures to an electronic or medical device.
Once the design is finalised we can do an FEA to give you the peace
of mind that your
product is not going to fail under the stresses and strains it might
be subject to.
Upon completion we give you a full documentation package of Engineering
drawings,
BOM's, all the CAD files and any CAM files you need for prototyping
or manufacturing.
How we
do it........
1. Have our Industrial Designer meet up with you and
sketch out ideas or help you develop them.
2. Meet up with our Mechanical Designers and discuss
the sketches you already have.

Where
we do it........
Design is done either on site at your facility using our equipment,
or yours, or at our location.
What software
we use........
Our software of choice is SolidWorks, a very versatile package that
can import and export files in a variety of formats. We have experience
with AutoCAD and are familiar with Pro Engineer, Industrial Design work
is mainly done with Vellum Solids and for any FEA (Finite Element Analysis)
we use Cosmos.
