Hire the Best CAD Designers
in South Africa

If your SolidWorks design looks good on screen, but causes problems in fabrication, you’re losing time and money. Bring your ideas: sketches, reference images, or rough concepts, and I’ll turn them into production-ready designs and drawings that your workshop can actually build. I specialize in sheet metal, weldments, and industrial equipment, applying strong DFM (Design for Manufacturability) from the start. That means bend allowances, tolerances, and fabrication constraints are already accounted for, so your parts fit, assemble, and perform as expected. My work ranges from structural steel (platforms, staircases, handrails) to industrial systems, including conveyor layouts, powder coating plants, and multi-component assemblies where integration, access, and serviceability all matter. What you get: Clean, production-ready drawings SolidWorks models structured for easy revisions DXF files for sheet metal cutting STEP files for machining Clear BOMs and documentation Working with me: Clear, consistent communication Practical, fabrication-focused input Files that don’t break when changes are made A smooth, low-friction process I’ve also worked on projects involving molded components and cast parts, giving me a broader understanding of manufacturing beyond fabrication. I’m Top Rated Plus on Upwork with a 100% Job Success Score, reflecting consistent delivery on SolidWorks and fabrication-focused projects. If you need someone who understands SolidWorks, sheet metal, DFM, and production-ready drawings, feel free to reach out.

I’m an Industrial Engineer with over five years’ experience in product design, mechanical and civil drafting, and end-to-end CAD development. I take product ideas from concept through detailed design and produce clean, manufacturable models using SolidWorks, Inventor, Revit, AutoCAD and VectorWorks. I keep design and drafting best practices up to date and pride myself on delivering efficient, attractive, and user-focused products. Beyond mechanical design, I also deliver industrial automation solutions. I’m skilled in PLC programming (ladder logic, function block, structured text), HMI/SCADA integration, PLC commissioning and troubleshooting, and industrial communications (e.g., Modbus/TCP). I link mechanical designs to control systems so the final product is not only well-built but smart and easy to operate.

I provide an industrial design service that specializes in long term contracts, although I am always happy to work on smaller projects to diversify my experience. My service does not stop at visually appealing design concepts but encompasses the full package taking the design from concept through prototyping and on to final manufacture. I will provide you with all the required files needed for your products manufacture. The one point that binds all my years of experience and knowledge is my determination to provide a consistent high-quality service.
