2D CAD Drafting
Using the latest CAD design software we can explore your design ideas in both 2D and 3D, to help your concepts become reality.
We cover a wide range of sectors, from plastic fabrication, CNC cutting and tool design, with our extensive 2D CAD drafting capabilities as well as product design and photo realistic rendering, we can work to any of your business needs.
We offer a wide range of services for plastic machining and precision cutting requirements, and are happy to discuss any project, from prototype and analysis through to one off designs, batch and continuous production runs.
Our fabrication team can create dimensioned working drawings to full scale drawing files for 2 or 3 axis CNC machining.
Compatible file types accepted include the following:
- .ai
- .eps
- .dxf
- dwg
What is CAD?
CAD stands for 'Computer Aided Design' and is the use of computer technology for the process of design. CAD software provides us with a program that replaces manual drafting with an automated process. CAD software helps us to explore design ideas, visualize concepts through animations and photo realistic renderings, and simulate how a design will perform in the real world.
CAD software has different features depending on which design process is being used. One version provides features for two-dimensional (2D) vector-based graphics, and the other version is for three-dimensional (3D) modeling of solid surface.
Please e-mail our fabrication team on fabrication@bayplastics.co.uk with your 2D CAD Drafting questions.
We carry an extensive range of stock to accommodate the diverse market for semi-finished plastic materials, offering custom sizes on all general plastics. Our professional cutting service will ensure quality finishes and rapid turnaround at all times.
With over 20 years of expertise in the fabrication sector, our commitment to service & quality, along with unrivalled product knowledge enables us to guide you in all aspects of plastic material selection, from component design through to production.
Our plastic design team are capable of creating a range of specialist bespoke products, from initial prototypes and one offs to full production runs. The capabilities and capacity available allows us to offer an extensive specialist service.
