CAD/Prototyping

In addition to its CNC manufacturing facility, Merc Engineering offers CAD and prototyping services responding to several of its clients' requirements. Offering a high level of service in this area often means that clients choose to place their manufacturing orders with Merc. By employing a team of highly experienced Planning Engineers, the Company can offer its clients the very best in 2D and 3D CAD drawing and design, as well as active technical feedback on improving design efficiency and method of manufacture on "make-to-print" orders. Our engineers are also adept at offering design ideas and first-off prototypes for specialist bespoke machinery and sub-assemblies.

Merc's planning department is equipped with the following software:

  • Rhino 3D Design
  • Work NC 3D CNC
  • Licom APS 2.5D CNC
  • Gibbs 2007 3D CAD/CAM

Merc Engineering has been involved in the prototyping phase of several projects including the shoulder launched LAW missile, Stormshadow, Power Generation Compressors, Defence Communications parts and various MoD projects.

Merc Engineering thrives on its technical know-how and dedication to offering the customer exactly what they want. To enable us to do this, our workforce realises the need to be flexible and understand that we are not simply a manufacturer of milled and turned parts. Our service ranges from the provision of simple parts manufactured to drawing, to the production of complex machined components and sub-assemblies. To emphasise this, we are always delighted to invest our efforts into ensuring that your projects become a success!
