We translate complex design surfaces into high-quality 3D shapes while preserving the design intent. We support freeform surface modeling that is difficult to create with mechanical CAD.
We support 3D modeling of freeform surfaces and complex design shapes used in product appearance. Based on sketches, concept models, and existing CAD data, we incorporate design intent into 3D shapes while confirming the connections between surfaces, changes in cross-sections, radii, edges, and relationships with surrounding shapes. Not only do we reproduce shapes, but we also model while checking the overall proportions, surface composition, and details from the perspective of product design. We also accommodate the examination of organic enclosures and complex appearance shapes that are difficult to construct in mechanical CAD, taking into account existing design conditions for design surfaces.

basic information
【Content of Support】 - 3D modeling of freeform surfaces/design surfaces - Creation of 3D shapes from design sketches - Construction of appearance shapes based on existing CAD data - Surface composition considering the connection of multiple curves - Shape adjustments for cross-sectional changes, radii, fillets, edges, etc. - Shape considerations for organic housings, grips, covers, etc. - Appearance adjustments based on internal components and mounting conditions - Support from design consideration models to data for design handover The CAD software and delivery data formats will be discussed individually based on existing data, subsequent processes, and requirements.
Price information
We will provide a customized estimate based on the complexity of the target shape, the availability of existing data, the required surface quality, the scope of modifications, and the delivery format.
Delivery Time
※It varies depending on the complexity of the target shape, the amount of data, the specifications required, and the condition of existing CAD data. We will confirm your desired schedule and provide individual proposals.
Applications/Examples of results
【Consultation Examples】 - I want to convert a shape that is established in a sketch into 3D CAD. - I want to model an exterior shape that is difficult to create with standard mechanical CAD. - I want to construct a housing shape with multiple continuous curved surfaces neatly. - I want to recreate the exterior surface while maintaining the existing design. - I want to transition CG or concept models into 3D data that can be used for design consideration. - I want to enhance the exterior quality of the shape created by the design side. 【Target Examples】 - Exteriors of industrial equipment / precision instruments - Handheld devices / grip shapes - Robots / mobility-related exteriors - Medical / healthcare devices - Beauty appliances / electronic devices - Other products with freeform surfaces In addition to requests for 3D modeling only, if consideration of the shape itself is necessary, you can consult us from product design. Our in-house product designers will support you with assistance tailored to the product development situation, from concept consideration, exterior design, CMF, to prototype and mass production follow-up. We can accommodate requests even from stages such as "the shape is not yet decided, but I want to consider the exterior based on design conditions."
Detailed information
-
From Sketch Concept to 3D Modeling Based on 2D sketches and concept images, we construct 3D shapes while checking cross-sections and proportions from multiple angles. Rather than just focusing on the appearance, we clarify the overall volume of the product, the flow of surfaces, and the relationship with surrounding components to materialize the design shape.
-
Carefully adjust the connection and details of the surfaces. In products with freeform surfaces, the connection between surfaces, cross-sectional changes, radii, and edge treatments significantly affect the appearance quality. While confirming the overall design intent, organize multiple surfaces to achieve a natural and consistent appearance.
-
Balancing design conditions and aesthetic shape Even when there are already established design conditions such as internal components, mounting positions, reference surfaces, wall thickness, and split positions, we adjust the exterior shape while confirming these factors. We support the construction of 3D data that connects design and mechanical engineering, making it easier to hand over to subsequent processes.
