PRECISION DESIGN SERVICES FOR CUSTOM PARTS, PATTERNS AND FIXTURES

The K&H precision design service is the first stop for your custom part files and plans. Our in-house designer can import your files or create new files for your part, giving you a complete and documented production plan of our task.

We use SolidWorks as our main design software which, in addition to being a robust design tool, is extremely cross-compatible and efficient at importing outside translations. Whether you have a repertoire of your own custom part files or you require our innovative design solutions to optimize your parts for manufacturability, you’ve found your prototyping partner in K&H Precision.

OPTIMIZED CUSTOM PART DESIGN THROUGH OUR STREAMLINED FIXTURE & PATTERN MAKING PROCESS

K&H offers innovative design solutions to help bring your custom part and prototype ideas to reality. We have unparalleled experience in optimizing components through precision design services to make them better candidates for the metal casting process. Some examples of these modifications include adding draft, adjusting parting lines and unique complex coring options.

After the initial prototyping and design optimization process, we create solid model geometry of the tooling required to manufacture your component. Once this crucial step is complete, the model is sent to you for review. We collaborate carefully with you and the unique needs of your business throughout the production process in order to ensure there are no issues with our potentially modified designs.

Upon your approval, our CNC programmers will create the required tool paths to CNC machine your custom part using Mastercam. Typically, the material used would be anywhere from a soft tooling board to aluminum plate stock. Meanwhile, in our Quality Control department, your part file will be loaded into PC-DIMS where a full inspection program is created.

EXPERT DESIGN SOLUTIONS FOR OPTIMUM MANUFACTUABILITY

Our streamlined prototype-to-production process saves time and allows for the preparation of all your quality control parameters as the part is being cast and machined.

From design to delivery, K&H Precision offers an unbeatable experience in custom part design, pattern-making, and industrial fixture creation.
