DAP specialise in fast and professional CAD drafting services to Design, Engineering, Manufacturing and Construction companies. Outsourced drafting services allow clients to optimise internal resources and focus on core activities such as innovation and creative design.

We work closely with clients to understand their ideas and design concepts whilst using our lower cost CAD providers to enter the required information in the selected software format.

Our CAD offering ranges from 2D drafting through to advanced 3D surface modelling and tooling analysis. We don't mind the mundane projects either, they’re usually easy to hive off and this frees up a company’s creative people to do value-added work.

We provide CAD drafting services which cover: engineering; design; shop and as-built drawings; mechanical drafting; and working architectural and landscape drawings.

This covers a range of industries including construction, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, shop fitters, mechanical, building, manufacturing, architectural, landscaping, design and engineering.

Outputs range from black and white line drawings for patent applications, instruction illustrations through to refined presentation and marketing images. We also customise templates and drawing standards to match a client's needs.  

Looking for a company with Computer Aided Design (CAD) depth and know-how? Our 3D CAD modelling experience covers automotive components, mechanical, structural and civil engineering, manufacturing, industrial design, construction, hydraulic, retail layouts and heating ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) industries.

Projects have included one off high-end pieces of medical equipment, low volume special purpose mechatronics to mass produced consumer goods. Designs have ranged in physical size from a finger tip, to installations spanning between levels, commercial and retail floor layouts to mapping deep underwater caves.

Inputs for generating the 3D CAD have come from a variety of sources including hand sketches, 2D manual drawings or 2D CAD files to physical parts. Successful delivery is arrived at by constant interaction with our client so potential problems are detected early.

Our CAD drafting services support As Built Drawings for Electrical, Hydraulic, Mechanical & Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) projects. Commercial and residential buildings, government and education contracts are all prepared to the highest quality of drafting standards. 

We update your marked up contractor drawings to 'as installed' conditions, up issue revision numbers and history tables. Outputs include PDF & DWG files, plots and CD copies.

Architectural renderings and visualisation, 3D product renderings, animations and walk through software help convey a design to its intended audience. Typically rendering and visualisation tools are used to assist sales, marketing and the design and development process.

The greatest advantage is experiencing the design vision and interacting with it in a virtual space long before it becomes a reality. Design iterations are achieved relatively quickly and cost effectively at this stage compared to making changes later in the design process.

Animation is a wonderful way to experience a proposed environment whilst it's still in the planning stages. Gliding through buildings and open spaces or seeing how mechanical mechanisms operate, brings a virtual experience that enhances the understanding and aids design development.
