R&D Prototype Fabrication and Metal Fabrication Engineering for Complex Metal Programs

Latest Metalworks Employee working on CAD

The CAD department at Latest Metalworks is led by our qualified and experienced engineers. We can process anything from napkin sketches to complex Solidworks Assemblies. Our engineers work through your product and 3D model it to make the processes out on the shop floor as efficient and accurate as possible without sacrificing the integrity of your product’s design. From the first article to full production runs, our engineered models are used every step of the way to maintain quality and design. 3D Modeling is essential to every step of the Latest Metalworks manufacturing process and imported into the appropriate CAM programs.
