3D CAD Modelling & Detailed Drafting Services in Australia
At ESD (ESoliDesign), we provide 3D CAD modelling and detailed drafting services across Australia, helping manufacturers, fabricators, builders, and startups bring their designs to life with precision and confidence. Whether you need a concept transformed into a scalable 3D model or fabrication-ready shop drawings, our team delivers accurate documentation that saves time, reduces errors, and ensures compliance with Australian Standards.
Using industry-leading platforms such as SolidWorks and Autodesk Inventor, we create models and drawings that are not only technically robust but also tailored to the unique requirements of each project. From structural steel and mechanical components to innovative product designs, our CAD services cover every stage of the process.
With a reputation for fast turnaround, compliance expertise, and drafting accuracy, we make it easier for our clients to move seamlessly from design to fabrication. No matter the size or complexity of your project, ESD ensures that your CAD documentation is clear, precise, and ready for approval or manufacturing.
Choosing the right partner for CAD modelling and drafting can make all the difference between smooth project delivery and costly delays. At ESD, we focus on delivering drawings and models that are not only technically accurate but also fabrication-ready and compliant with Australian Standards.
Our clients rely on us for:
- Accuracy and Detail – Every model and drawing is created with precision, ensuring that hole placements, welds, and dimensions translate seamlessly into manufacturing.
- Compliance Expertise – We work to strict codes such as AS4100, AS1657, AS1170 and more, so your designs meet regulatory requirements from the outset.
- Fast Turnaround – With efficient workflows and experience across multiple industries, we deliver CAD documentation quickly without compromising on quality.
- Nationwide Service – Based in Melbourne and supporting clients across Australia, we provide consistent drafting services no matter where your project is located.
By combining technical skill with a clear understanding of compliance and fabrication needs, ESD helps builders, manufacturers, and startups move from concept to construction with confidence.
At ESD, we transform ideas into precise, scalable 3D CAD models that form the foundation of successful projects. Whether you are developing a new product, designing structural steelwork, or refining a mechanical component, our modelling process ensures every detail is captured accurately and ready for the next stage.
We work with leading platforms such as SolidWorks and Autodesk Inventor, giving us the flexibility to deliver robust, parametric models tailored to each client’s needs. These tools allow us to visualise designs, simulate functionality, and refine details before moving into prototyping or fabrication.
Our CAD modelling services cover a wide range of applications, including:
- Mechanical design – components, assemblies, and machinery parts.
- Structural design – steel frames, connections, and load-bearing elements.
- Product design – from startup concepts to manufacturing-ready prototypes.
With a strong focus on accuracy, compliance, and efficiency, ESD’s 3D CAD modelling helps reduce errors, streamline fabrication, and shorten project timelines.
Accurate drafting is the bridge between design and successful fabrication. At ESD, we provide engineering drafting services that deliver clear, fabrication-ready documentation for builders, manufacturers, and fabricators across Australia.
Our drafting work covers everything from 2D technical drawings to full shop drawing packages, ensuring every detail is defined before fabrication begins. This includes:
- Steel fabrication shop drawings – weld symbols, hole placements, cutting details.
- Assembly drawings – clear instructions for builders and installers on site.
- Bills of materials (BOMs) and cutting lists – supporting efficient procurement and manufacturing.
Using CAD platforms like SolidWorks and Autodesk Inventor, our drafting process is designed for accuracy and consistency. Every drawing is checked against relevant Australian Standards to ensure compliance and ease of certification.
With ESD’s detailed drafting and documentation, clients can move into fabrication and installation with confidence, knowing their drawings are accurate, complete, and tailored to real-world construction needs.
Turning a concept into reality often requires more than just a CAD model. At ESD, we support clients through the critical stage of prototype design and testing, helping refine ideas into products that are practical, manufacturable, and compliant.
Our team takes your 3D CAD models and develops them into prototype-ready designs, ensuring all dimensions, tolerances, and materials are considered. This process reduces risk by identifying issues early, before costly manufacturing begins.
We assist startups, innovators, and established manufacturers by providing:
- Prototype CAD design services – bridging the gap between concept and fabrication.
- Design testing and validation – checking fit, function, and safety.
- Iterative refinement – updating CAD models quickly based on prototype feedback.
With experience in both SolidWorks and Autodesk Inventor, we deliver accurate, adaptable CAD files that streamline the move from prototype to production. Whether you’re launching a new product or improving an existing design, ESD ensures your development process is efficient, compliant, and ready for market.
Every drawing and model produced at ESD is prepared with strict attention to compliance. We know that for builders, manufacturers, and fabricators, having Australian Standards–compliant CAD drafting is essential for safety, approvals, and peace of mind.
Our drafting and modelling processes are built around the following key standards:
- AS1100 – Technical Drawing (the foundation for all engineering drafting in Australia)
- AS4100 – Steel Structures
- AS1657 – Fixed Platforms, Walkways, Stairways and Ladders
- AS1170 – Structural Design Actions
- AS2870 – Residential Slabs and Footings
- AS1210 – Pressure Vessels
- AS1664.2 – Aluminium Structures
We also prepare documentation for certification and compliance submissions, including Form 15, Form 126, and REG126 where required. By embedding these standards into every drawing package, we ensure your project is certification-ready and avoids costly redesigns or delays.
With ESD, you can trust that every CAD model and drawing aligns with industry codes, engineering best practice, and fabrication requirements.
Our CAD modelling and drafting services are designed to support a wide range of clients across Australia. By combining technical accuracy with practical fabrication knowledge, ESD delivers solutions that suit the needs of:
- Manufacturers – From mechanical components to production assemblies, we provide detailed CAD models, drawings, and BOMs that streamline manufacturing and reduce errors.
- Fabricators – Steel, aluminium, and sheet metal fabricators rely on our fabrication shop drawings for welds, hole placement, and cutting details that translate directly into efficient workshop production.
- Builders & Contractors – We prepare drafting packages that make installation clear and straightforward, ensuring compliance and avoiding on-site delays.
- Startups & Innovators – For new product ideas, we create prototype-ready CAD models and documentation that make it easier to test, refine, and take concepts to market.
By tailoring our drafting and modelling to the unique needs of each sector, ESD provides a service that is flexible, accurate, and always compliance-focused.
At ESD, we follow a clear and proven process that ensures every project moves smoothly from the first idea to fabrication-ready documentation. Our structured approach gives clients confidence at every stage:
