CAD & Engineering
From CAD model to prototype-ready surface
From a SolidWorks model to a first prototype — engineered inside and out.
A product, carried from concept surfacing to prototype-ready CAD: internal structure, injection-moulded parts, the assembly that holds it together, and the renders that sold it — shown here as engineering and form exercises only.
Drawn in SolidWorks
Surface & structure, gears and part design

Drive geometry, drawn to spec

Surfacing the body, line by line
Surface & assembly
Resolved & exploded
The form resolved — clean surfaces

Every join detailed

Exploded — every part in its place
Rendered in Blender
Staged & lit
Staged in context — Blender

Another setting, another light

Lighting study — dusk

Inside — the working heart
All projects are always team work. On this assignment, my role was to execute and refine the 2D design work of Promea's brilliant designer Albert-Jan van Dijk — translating it into efficient, well-built SolidWorks files for prototyping.
Engineering with Promea, executed in SolidWorks — with Lars van der Meer.
