Bespoke design, engineering and project management solutions

Designed to fit your needs. your space. your customers.

We’re Solid Edge CAD software experts with years of experience designing everything from specialist
equipment for some of the biggest names in the automotive, motor racing and aerospace industries
to custom jigs for small companies who need to streamline their processes whilst maintaining
quality and consistency.

Need a special purpose machine for a particular project or an access way for an awkward space? A
3D-printed or machined component to connect two specific parts? We can design a solution that will
fit your specific requirements, always with the practicalities of manufacturing the real thing factored in.

3D measured building scanning

Whether it’s getting high-accuracy measurements of the space a machine or rig needs to fit into, scanning an entire building quickly for workshop or access planning, or checking a building site has been levelled to within specific tolerances, 3D measured building scanning provides a faster and more detailed set of measurements than traditional geosurveying.

Using Leica Geosystems equipment, we can create a point cloud map of your building or site consisting of millions of individual measurement points. This can be converted into a CAD model and used for customised design work, turned into floorplans and images, or used for data checking of precise alignments in construction.

Comprehensive project management

Not sure how to go about getting a custom machine manufactured, or just don’t have the time? We can also project manage turning our designs into the real thing. We can talk to your preferred suppliers or recommend companies we’ve worked with for years and know will do justice to our designs.

Attention to detail

At Sheppard Innovations, we believe that the devil is in the detail, enabling us to create a solution that meets all requirements whilst being easy to put together, use and maintain.  We take the time to understand the project as a whole, not just the supplied specifications, to help you achieve the best possible outcome no matter the project.
