We want to help you succeed. Whether you are an entrepreneur with a brand new idea or product, or you’re well established in the industry and just need help to push through a project. We have a wide range of services to help you and your team achieve your goals, from patent and technical manufacturing drawings to fully assembled and functioning models and renderings. Consider outsourcing to Carolina CAD & Drafting Services and let us be your fast and effective solution.
Computer Aided Design
What is CAD? Computer-aided design is a way to digitally create 2D & 3D drawings & models of real world products and systems. 3D CAD allows you to create, review, simulate and modify designs easily. This method is vastly more efficient not only providing monetary savings but time savings as well. Make your product virtually and have the ability to test it to identify design flaws or failures, then quickly share and get feedback with your team. With 3D CAD, you can go through the iterations typical of the product design process, but in a fraction of the time, taking your product to market faster. Here are just a few of the reasons that your team should use our CAD services.
functioning Model
There are many advantages to having a fully functional virtual model of your product. A 3D CAD model is the virtual prototype for your product. Review its fit and form, function and overall aesthetic. Does it look how you imagined or sketched it? Is it to the scale you initially thought? Does it move the way you thought? These are all things we can show you and correct or revise before making a costly physical prototype.
- Examine single or multi-component projects to ensure fit and form. Review how components fit together and configure assembly methods.
- Review any moving components and inspect how each component interacts with the other through its designated motion.
- Examine the products overall scale and appearance. Compare to other objects or components.
- Easily share your project among your team or client to get concrete feedback.
Renders
Bring your product to life with our Renders. Decide on material, finishes or coverings after seeing photorealistic renders of your product. Many materials can be too costly to construct prototypes just to find that it's not the look you want anyways. You can easily bring in different textures and materials to see how they compare. This is also a great opportunity to get images to use for early marketing schemes, social media or presentations.
- Examine the products overall scale and appearance. Compare to other objects or components.
- Easily share your project among your team or client to get concrete feedback.
- See how your product looks with realistic textures and appearances. Get photorealistic images to show your team, clients or investors.
- Use for marketing or advertisements.
Product Analysis
Analyze your projects structure and materials. Determine any design flaws and make revisions before real world stress testing. Reduce the number of physical real world prototypes needed. Your team specifies the parameters the product would be undergoing, and let us do the rest.
- Analyze your products strengths & weak areas. Determine material to be used.
- Easily share your project among your team or client to get concrete feedback.
- Use for marketing or advertisements.
- You can also check overall balance of your product. Whether it is to properly distribute load or mass, or to determine the center of mass.

Technical Drawings & Drafting
What are Technical Drawings and why do you need them? Drafting & technical drawings are disciplines that compose drawings that communicates how a product or object is constructed and functions. This is critical to efficiently take a product to production or to fabricate a custom project. Drawings are also crucial in documenting your ideas or plans. They allow you to communicate an accurate depiction of your design to your team, clients or investors. Trying to do so with hand sketches or air gestures doesn’t always do the same. Having standardized drawings ensures your team is on the same page and move forward to make timely assessments of particular design aspects such as geometry, dimensions and function. Technical drawings are also an international language. Engineers and designers of different origins can still efficiently communicate design attributes in a drawing.
Technical drawings are crucial for manufacturers as well. They serve as the bible of the product if done correctly. They should include and communicate tolerances, construction methods and requirements, material notes, assembly sequences and much more. Accurate and concise technical drawings can reduce manufacturing cost and increase efficiency.
Finally, technical drawings play an important role in legal arenas. They can be part of a purchase order, making them a crucial part of a contract. They should convey accurately to the customer what they are to receive. They are also used in the patenting process. Some patents require a drawing. Having an accurate and correct drawing quickly increases your chances of beating your opponents.
Here are a few reasons why you should use our drafting services.
Documentation
Every product or system should be accurately documented for records and to communicate your designs precisely. At Carolina CAD & Drafting, we strive to ensure all the information needed on the drawings are there and standardize so to be understood across disciplines. We also work hard to keep all of our documentation concise and simple while having the necessary information. Many times, we've seen technical drawings that have too much or conflicting dimensions, tolerances or information overload. Drawings should show only the information needed to accomplish the objective of the drawing.
- Get accurate documentation of your products.
- Accurately and quickly convey your designs, and get concrete feedback.
- Clean and simple drafting with all the necessary information.
- Utilize drawings for they legal uses.
- Easily share your work with your team or clients with electronic and paper copies of the drawings.
Manufacturing
Too many times in the industry our team has seen costly errors or mistakes made from inaccurate drawings or no drawings at all. Technical drawings should be the consistent reference document for the manufacturing or fabrication teams. They too should not be too busy with unnecessary or opposing information. Many different departments within manufacturing teams need different information, and need to be able to quickly look over and find the information they need. Knowing what information they need is critical and our team has the experience in those fields. We've worked with many different types of manufacturing facilities and know how to convey the necessary information.
- Have accurate documentation of your products and the information needed for construction.
- Easily share your projects with any manufacturing companies.
- Save cost from unnecessary mistakes or errors from inaccurate or busy drawings.
Patent Drawings
Patent drawings are the foundation of your next big idea. Don't get beat to the finish line waiting on these. Patent drawings need to follow a certain set of rules to be accepted with an application. Errors or omissions can not only be costly with application processes, but could also allow your competitors with similar ideas to beat you to the paper.
- We hold confidentiality to the highest regard. Your information and designs will be kept safe.
- Don't wait. We know how hard the process is and make it a priority.
Industrial Design
Industrial Design is the practice of designing products or objects that are to be mass produced. It is a balance of determining a products form and appearance and its manufacturability. Almost every object that you interact with everyday has gone through the design process of an industrial designer. Our team will assist and give notes on your products or ideas.
