  • Trim
  • Assembly
  • Bonding
  • Weld

Fixture Design

  • Mill
  • Lathe
  • Grinder
  • Drill/Ream
  • Check

3D Modeling

Today, the core of manufacturing starts with a CAD model. Some definitions can be quite simple while others can be vast and complex. Surfaces & Curves adheres to the ASME Y14.41-2012 Digital Product Definition Data Practices standard unless otherwise specified. It is Surfaces & Curves desire to provide services that are aligned with customer requirements.

Drafting

Typically, a drawing is generated from a customer-provided 3D model or one created by Surfaces & Curves.  ASME Y14.1 Engineering Drawing Practices are followed unless otherwise specified.
