Mechanical CAD Design and Product Design Services in Hyderabad
At iMake, we specialise in mechanical CAD design and product development from our facility at Hardware Park Phase 2, Hyderabad. Our team of 10+ experienced CAD engineers uses Autodesk Fusion 360, AutoCAD and KeyShot — all genuine licensed software — to bring your ideas from concept to production-ready geometry. Whether you need help designing a new product, converting legacy 2D drawings to 3D models, or optimising an existing design for manufacturing, we have the expertise and in-house manufacturing capability to deliver the complete package.
Design for Manufacturing (DFM) for CNC or 3D Printing
Every design we produce is reviewed for manufacturability before any material is cut or printed. We identify issues with wall thickness, tolerances, undercuts, thread specifications and feature geometry — and resolve them in the CAD stage, before they become expensive errors on the workshop floor.
The part below was designed in Fusion 360 and milled in Delrin on our CNC machine — demonstrating a complete CAD-to-part workflow entirely in-house.
Manufacturing method: CNC Milling | Material: Delrin | Turnaround: 2 days
Buoy Model — Functional Product Development
Full product development including fastener design, foam cutting and assembly for a functional buoy product — from concept sketch to finished assembly drawing.
Manufacturing method: Hot Wire / Knife cutting | Material: EPS foam | Turnaround: 2 days
Tool-Bit Box — Custom Workshop Organiser
Custom tool bit organiser designed and 3D printed for a CNC workshop client — designed parametrically for easy customisation and printed in ABS the same day the CAD was approved.
Manufacturing method: FDM 3D Printing | Material: ABS | Turnaround: 1 day

F.A.Q
Frequently Asked Questions on CAD design at iMake
- What software do you use for CAD design?
We use Autodesk Fusion 360 as our primary CAD platform, along with AutoCAD for 2D drawings and KeyShot for photorealistic product rendering. All software is genuine and licensed. We also use Blender for organic modelling and specific design tasks requiring free-form surfaces.
- Are you using genuine and licensed software?
Yes. We use only genuine and licensed software for all CAD design work — this is especially important for defence and aerospace clients whose IP must be protected. All files are handled under NDA if required.
- Do you sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs)?
Yes. We are happy to sign NDAs before receiving any project files or design information. NDA protection is standard for all defence, aerospace and medical device clients. Our team members are individually bound by confidentiality agreements.
- Do you provide DFM feedback as part of the design service?
Yes — DFM (Design for Manufacturing) review is included in all our CAD design projects. We check every design for CNC machinability, 3D printability or injection mold requirements and flag issues before production begins. This saves cost and avoids wasted material or failed prints.
- Can you convert my old 2D drawings to 3D CAD?
Yes. We regularly convert legacy 2D drawings (DWG, PDF, hand sketches) to fully parametric 3D CAD models in Fusion 360. The resulting 3D model can then be directly used for CNC machining, 3D printing, or injection mold design — all available in-house.
- What file formats do you deliver?
We deliver in all standard formats including STEP, IGES, STL, DXF, DWG, PDF drawings, and Fusion 360 native files. For clients requiring SolidWorks files (.sldprt), we can export STEP and convert. Format requirements should be specified at the start of the project.
- What are the payment terms for CAD design?
CAD design is billed at ₹1,200–1,250 per hour depending on complexity, or as a fixed project fee agreed upfront. A 50% advance is required to begin. Balance is due on delivery of the final files. GST invoices provided. For ongoing retainer arrangements, monthly billing is available.
