Our Services

PDC offers wide ranging CAD experience to design and develop fixtures, prototypes and solutions to any problems you need solving. 

Every solution, prototype or fixture designed by PDC comes with detailed engineering drawings as standard in accordance with good GD&T practices.

PDC has extensive CNC experience and designs all fixtures, prototypes and solutions to be as manufacturable as possible using readily available technology. This reduces leadtimes and gets you results faster.

All our fixturing comes with qualification documentation detailing that the fixture has been machined within tolerance and functions as intended. 

PDC also offers a 3D printing service to our customers. Customers can chose to get their designs 3D printed for trial purposes. PDC may chose to do this on complex fixturing and prototypes before CNC machining in your chosen material, this is to ensure a everything fits as intended and that no issue arise.

PDC has extensive experience in root cause analysis. We take a lean approach to ensure the true root cause of an issue is found. PDC then develops a permanent cost effective solution that finally  prevents the issues from occuring again.

Along with lean, PDC also uses FEA to delve deeper into the issues at hand, ensuring that the design of the product is compatable with the manufacturing method and the material can withstand the stresses.

Finally, PDC will generate extensive engineering reports on the topic to act as a justification in change controls requests. This is performed if you operate in a regulated environment such as Medical device or Pharmaceutical industries for example.

PDC has extensive experience in developing manufacturing processes from the ground up. Be it, laser processing, CNC machining or simply any part of your manufacturing process. Not only that, but PDC also has vast experience in tech transfers.

What makes PDC unique?

Simple, have a look at the below diagram to see what PDC can do for you.

No other company in the world offers this level of complete process development directly to your business.

PDC's first goal is to get your manufacturing process off the ground as soon as possible whilst ensuring it's capable and controllable. PDC's second goal is to make our services as flexible and customisable as possible to your exact needs.  

If you only need PDC for specific tasks, no problem. If you need process development engineering expertise on an entire project to keep things moving, no problem. If you need a fresh set of eyes to come up with out of the box ideas (PDC's Favorite), than, you guessed it, no problem! Hit the contact tab above and start chatting with us today.

Laser processing services are a specialty of PDC.

PDC specialises in 

Laser Welding

Laser Cutting

Laser Surface Engineering

PDC has performed extensive laser processing, everything from ultra thin titanium foil welding, to deep keyhole welding in spinal implants.

PDC use 4 and 5 axis laser welding and cutting machines to develop prototypes, prove concept manufacturing techniques. 

PDC is currently in the process of building our facility to house our new laser equipment. Once this building is operational, PDC will offer a rapid laser process service to our customers.

If you have laser equipment in you facility and can't get your process to be capable and controllable, don't worry!

PDC will travel to your site and develop your process to improve capability and control, giving you far less to worry about.
