WE TURN PHYSICAL
PRODUCT IDEAS INTO
PRODUCTION CAD & 3D.
LOOP is an independent design engineering studio. We create the 3D CAD files, engineering blueprints, exploded diagrams, and photorealistic visuals required to manufacture physical products—from consumer devices and electronics to robotics and packaging.
FROM NAPKIN SKETCHES TO FACTORY-READY CAD.
We take physical product concepts—smartphones, laptops, drones, robotics, packaging—and engineer the exact 3D models, manufacturing blueprints, and tooling data required to fabricate them.
PHYSICAL IDEA
Your napkin sketch, circuit board bounds, or hardware concept.
FORM & ERGONOMICS
Sculpting the outer shell to fit the human hand and internal parts.
PARAMETRIC CAD
Production 3D geometry with mold draft angles and rib structures.
ASSEMBLY & KINEMATICS
Interference collision checks, hinges, latches, and screws.
FACTORY BLUEPRINTS
ASME Y14.5 2D drawings with GD&T datums ready for machine shops.
THE LOOP METHOD: WATCHING A PRODUCT COME TO LIFE.
Watch a physical product come into existence digitally. Scrub through the 7 distinct phases of our engineering lifecycle: from initial sketch contours to solid CAD, exploded assembly, and manufacturing blueprint.
DIGITAL SKETCH & SILHOUETTE
Translating napkin sketches and volumetric requirements into clean 3D spatial contour envelopes.
SELECTED CONCEPTS.
Speculative hardware designs developed internally to demonstrate our CAD, Class-A surface modeling, thermal architecture, and blueprint capabilities. Every project has its own bespoke 3D CAD model.
STRATOS / X1
APEX / STUDIO
KURA / CELL
SYNAPSE / BAND
AXON / JOINT 01
STUDIO CAPABILITIES.
Hover or tap any discipline to inspect live engineering blueprints, CAD tolerances, and deliverable standards.
PRODUCT CONCEPT DESIGN
Translating physical product ideas into manufacturable form directions, aesthetic systems, and functional ergonomics.
- Form exploration
- Design directions
- Ergonomic studies
- 3D concept development
- Silhouette validation
WHAT CLIENTS RECEIVE: THE COMPLETE CAD SYSTEM.
Every physical product idea passes through our structured digital engineering layer, resulting in production-ready files (.STEP, .DWG, .PDF, BOM) for your manufacturing partners.
PHYSICAL IDEA
Napkin sketch, internal board constraints, or hardware concept.
3D FORM ENVELOPE
Ergonomic volumetric studies, human factor grip, silhouette balance.
SURFACE LOFTS
Class-A curvature continuity (G2/G3), parting line placement.
SOLID CAD
Parametric SolidWorks solids, 1.5° tooling draft, uniform wall thickness.
MECHANISMS
Internal packaging, zero-clash assemblies, kinematic mating.
2D BLUEPRINTS
ASME Y14.5 manufacturing drawings, GD&T datums A/B/C, BOM.
FACTORY HANDOFF
Production archive (.STEP, .DWG, .PDF) ready for tooling quotes.
THE ENGINEERING LAB.
Enter LOOP's digital workspace: explore CAD solid feature trees, 2D orthographic blueprints with GD&T, exploded sub-assemblies, and CMF finish studies.
Every part is mathematically verified in CAD before factory release. Tooling errors are caught digitally, saving tens of thousands in prototype re-spins.
WHY HARDWARE FOUNDERS WORK WITH LOOP.
No empty corporate buzzwords. Concrete technical differences that protect your tooling capital and accelerate physical manufacturing.
DIRECT COLLABORATION
Work directly with the design engineer authoring your SolidWorks CAD. No account managers and zero translation loss.
TOOLING-READY RIGOR
Every surface is built with production intent: draft angles, nominal wall checks, tooling release planes, and ISO 2768 tolerances.
VISUAL CLARITY
Transform complex 50-part mechanical assemblies into intuitive exploded diagrams and 8K renders that investors and factories instantly understand.
COMPLETE ASSET OWNERSHIP
You receive clean, organized, 100% owned digital archives (.STEP, .DWG, .PDF, BOM) ready for quotation and tooling anywhere in the world.
THE 6-PHASE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS.
From constraint discovery to digital handoff. Clear milestones, transparent reviews, and zero ambiguity.
DISCOVER
Catalog electronic volumes, batteries, and mechanical constraints.
DEFINE
Establish form language, proportion studies, and master datum spines.
DESIGN
Sculpt Class-A curvature surfaces, parting lines, and tactile CMF.
ENGINEER
Build parametric SolidWorks CAD, ribs, bosses, and zero-clash assemblies.
VISUALIZE
Render 8K photorealistic studio visuals and internal cutaways.
DELIVER
Hand off organized archive (.STEP, .DWG, .PDF, BOM) ready for tooling.
NO ACCOUNT MANAGERS.
DIRECT ENGINEERING.
LOOP is an independent design engineering studio. Projects are handled directly by the designer-engineer rather than passed through layers of agency bureaucracy or outsourced overseas.
PHYSICAL INDUSTRIES SERVED.
LOOP develops 3D CAD and engineering packages across physical hardware domains.
ENGINEERING INSIGHTS.
Authoritative analysis on CAD architecture, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, and digital prototyping.
What Does a Design Engineering Studio Actually Do?
An authoritative guide to the role of an independent design engineering studio: where industrial design ends, engineering rigor begins, and how digital assets unlock physical production.
Industrial Design vs Product Design vs Design Engineering
A clear breakdown of the differences between industrial designers, digital product designers, and design engineers—and why the distinction matters for hardware ventures.
How CAD Fits Into Product Development
An in-depth exploration of how computer-aided design (CAD) anchors the physical product development lifecycle, file format hierarchies, and parametric best practices.
