Project details
You will receive a professional 3D model of your sheet metal design along with fully detailed development drawings for manufacturing. I will provide multi-layered DXF files with bending notes, dimensions, hole positions, and fabrication guidelines to ensure error-free production. Weldment notes will be included when required, and I can also provide realistic renderings for better visualization if needed.

Product Update and Design.
I would like to share with everyone that my experience with Manikandan was yet again another great one. I have worked with him in the past on various projects related to my different dreams.
And wow, does he bring them to life! He listens, he's patient, and is extremely skillful at what he does. He can translate my confusion into masterful work. I would definitely work with him again. As a matter of fact, I'm about to hire him for another. He has strong work ethics and is always timely and professional as my designer.

Job Success
Thiruvarur, India - 7:05 am local time
I help clients turn concepts, sketches, existing products, and engineering requirements into functional, manufacturable mechanical designs—not just 3D CAD models.
On Upwork, I have completed 450+ projects and 5,900+ hours, working with startups, manufacturers, engineering companies, and product developers on projects ranging from individual precision components to complex mechanical assemblies.
Mechanical Engineering Capabilities
• Mechanical product development
• Machine and mechanism design
• Gear, pulley, belt, shaft and bearing systems
• Linear motion and drive systems
• CNC-machined components
• Sheet-metal design
• Weldments and fabricated assemblies
• Plastic and injection-molded components
• Enclosures and electromechanical assemblies
• 3D-printing and prototype design
• Reverse engineering and design improvement
Manufacturing & Engineering Documentation
I design with manufacturing in mind from the beginning.
My work can include:
• Design for Manufacturing (DFM)
• GD&T and engineering tolerances
• Fits and clearances
• Production drawings
• Assembly drawings
• BOMs
• Machining considerations
• CNC-ready component design
• Prototype-to-production revisions
• STEP, Parasolid, STL, DXF and manufacturing file preparation
SolidWorks Expertise
As a Certified SolidWorks Professional, I regularly work with:
• Complex parts and assemblies
• Parametric modeling
• Sheet Metal
• Weldments
• Configurations
• Motion/mechanism development
• Technical drawings
• Exploded assemblies
• Design revisions and legacy CAD
• Manufacturing documentation
From Concept to Manufacturing
I can support the complete mechanical development process:
Concept → Engineering → 3D CAD → Prototype → Testing/Revisions → Production Drawings → Manufacturing
If you have a mechanical product, machine, mechanism, or existing design that needs to be developed or improved, send me the available drawings, sketches, photos, CAD files, or requirements.
I can review them and determine the most practical engineering approach before we begin.
Steps for completing your project
After purchasing the project, send requirements so MANIKANDAN can start the project.
Delivery time starts when MANIKANDAN receives requirements from you.
MANIKANDAN works on your project following the steps below.
Revisions may occur after the delivery date.
Concept model
Delivery of 3D concept images for initial review and feedback.
Sheet metal conversion
Creation of the sheet metal version with proper unfolding and flat pattern.
