The Short Answer Is – There Is No Short Answer
Because of its widespread influence within multiple industries and various fields of study, the exact definition of precision engineering is still argued upon today. Most experts have agreed on a highly-generalized consensus: Continue reading
If you are interested in using a precision engineering company to complete a project, or create a prototype, then you may want to know more about the role of precision engineering in society, Continue reading
When you are looking for a fast CNC turnaround service the best place to look first is either through word or mouth or the internet to find a company that already offers this service. Continue reading
If you want to create a prototype for your intended product, in order to test how it works and to examine any potential flaws, then you need to seek the help of design professionals. Modern prototype makers will use software designed to help them create the finished product, often known as Computer-aided design, or computer-assisted design. Continue reading
Modern engineering firms such as Thompson Precision use computer programming to help them create millimetres-perfect models and prototypes. There are two main types of CAD software, the most widely available of which is known as Solidworks. Continue reading
Almost everyone has heard the news reports about 3D printing, particularly the exciting stories about being able to print out 3D limbs like arms, legs and hands.
When you are introducing a new product to market, you need to have prototypes and models constructed quickly, and to a uniform pattern. If you need a fast turnaround of construction, then you should consider CNC. Continue reading
Rapid prototyping is a way of creating working models and prototypes for use in industry. Although it is in fact several technologies, they all involve the use of computer aided design which can be used to turn a 2D drawing or plan of a product into a 3D model of the design. Continue reading
Computerised Numerical Control, or CNC, is a form of automated machine tooling which can be used for very minute items, or extremely large items, depending upon the requirements of the customer. Continue reading
