Welcome to the Solveering Site. Whether you are looking for Solutions to Engineering related problems or simply for
solutions that are best achieved through the use of an Engineering approach, you have come to the right place...
At Solveering, our main focus is on providing services in the Development, Simulation and Implementation stages
of your ideas and products.
Design Services involve the use of Computer Aided Design/Drafting (CAD) software to generate computer models that represent
the mechanical or electrical layout of products. Under these tasks, descriptions, hand sketches, photos or rudimentary
CAD models are created or converted and refined. Outputs are often files that can be viewed in free software, 2D drawings (aka 'blue-prints')
that can be used for manufacturing or any similar items.
Simulation (also referred to as 'Analysis') involves engineering knowledge to estimate how a part or design will behave. This can be used to
answer questions such as 'is it strong enough?' or 'how hot does it get?'. There are a number of different ways that simulations can be used to answer
a wide range of such questions and we cover the fields of (rigid-body) motion, Linear Structural analysis and conjugate fluid flow and heat transfer,
just to name a few. These can be 1D (time based, lumped analysis) through transient, 3D simulations.
What good is it if you can't touch and feel the part? CAD models and simulations are great for getting the 'Engineering' part figured out, but
often it is the human touch that will provide confidence in a design. Where this makes sense, we can provide in-house prototyping using a variety of
techniques (laser cutting, FDM and SLA 3D Printing, TH and SMD electronics assembly, Urethane resin casting, turning and CNC Milling, to name a few). For the cases where our available
machines are either insufficient (due to size, tolerances or material requirements), we have a network of service providers that further specialize
in a variety of capabilities and can take our detailed models and instructions to fabricate a wide variety of components.
Other Projects
The above, rough classifications are a good way to get an idea of what parts may go into a project. The hard truth, however is that things usually
are not that clear cut. It may be the case that you first need to go through a phase of collecting samples. Or information so that you can better
define the design aspects. Or you may need some Custom Software to work through some large set of data
or similar. Or a tool to collect the data in the first place. Whatever the case may be, we fully understand that things need to be 'flexible'.
We get it, we've been there too... in fact, that is where our InStep application comes from: a desire to be able to integrate mesh-to-cad conversions
into the design workflow. At the time that did no exist and a first form of the software application was simply developed to help a client that
had STL files and needed a way to import them into their CAD software system.
In any case, the best thing you can do is drop us a line and let us know what you have and what / where / how we can
help you and we can then discuss the details and come up with a strategy... and no, we are not going to send you an invoice for an initial discussion on
what / how we can help.
