Develop modules to automate repetitive design tasks.
Services
CAD automation and customization, built around your models.
Beyond our packaged products, we build custom automation directly for your CAD environment and standards — on SOLIDWORKS, SolidEdge, Autodesk Inventor, Siemens NX and other major platforms.
CAD Automation Services
Custom modules for your repetitive tasks
Develop add-ins and applications to interactively perform multiple tasks based on user input, across SOLIDWORKS, SolidEdge, Autodesk Inventor, Siemens NX and other platforms.
Develop macros that quickly generate the desired output from user input.
Develop commands that provide, in one step, functionality that otherwise requires multiple CAD interface commands.
Develop tools that work synchronously within the CAD environment itself.
CAD Customization Services
Your models, your standards
Model customization
Customize CAD models to a client's specific requirements, from parametric behaviour to output formatting.
Standards application
Define and apply standard design practices consistently across an organization's CAD models.
Library migration
Relocate large SOLIDWORKS model libraries with references intact, using ProcessWorks to map, select and standardize as you go.
AI Agent Development & Integration
Extend automation with AI, where it earns its place
A newer service line, built on the same automation foundation: task-specific AI agents connected to your CAD, PDM/PLM and Microsoft data. See how we scope and supervise these agents → Our product CADPilot applies the same discipline to voice-driven SOLIDWORKS commands, with an on-premise learning layer now in development.
Configuration & parameter agents
Review incoming order or spec data against your configuration rules before generation runs.
Drawing & documentation agents
Draft routine drawing notes and change-order text from the model and its history.
PDM/PLM data agents
Flag inconsistent metadata and surface reusable parts across your PLM library.
Process & reporting agents
Summarize release status and exceptions across CAD, PLM and Microsoft systems.
Platforms we work with
One team, several desktop CAD environments
Our development work runs on desktop CAD installations — the environment most engineering teams still design in day to day.
Desktop-first, by design
Built where engineers actually design
Cloud-hosted CAD platforms, including Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE, have been available for several years. Most engineering teams, in our experience, still do their daily design work on desktop CAD — and that's deliberately where we focus our development. It's also why so many CAD automation vendors have moved to cloud-only tooling: it's a reasonable bet on where the market is eventually headed, but not necessarily where most teams are working today.
Our team builds desktop-based automation for any major CAD platform — SOLIDWORKS, Autodesk Inventor, AutoCAD, Siemens NX and others. Where a specific project calls for it, we also develop integrations into cloud-based CAD and PLM platforms, including 3DEXPERIENCE, scoped to that requirement.
- Runs fully offline — no dependency on an internet connection to keep working
- Design data stays on your own infrastructure, not a third-party cloud
- No added cloud subscription layered on top of your existing CAD licenses
- Consistent performance on large assemblies, without browser overhead
- Cloud integrations available by request, scoped to the platform you actually use
CAD Automation Training
Want your own team to build this, not just receive it?
Alongside custom development, we run hands-on CAD automation training for engineers with no programming background — online, in person, or for a whole design team together. See how training works →

We'll tell you whether a module, a macro or a full add-in is the right fit.
