When Should You Use Engineering Design Services?
You’re developing a new product
Turning an idea or concept into a manufacturable design, including creating detailed CAD models and functional prototypes for testing, while ensuring the product is ready for efficient production from day one.
You need to replace obsolete or discontinued parts
Reverse engineering existing components to recreate or improve designs, updating them for modern manufacturing methods, and helping avoid the cost of replacing entire assemblies.
You don’t have in-house design resource or capacity
Accessing experienced engineers without hiring in-house, supporting your team during peak workloads when capacity is stretched, and bringing specialist expertise for complex projects.

FAQs
What stages of product development can you assist with?
We assist at every stage, from ideation and concept development to prototyping, testing, and production support. Whether you need help with a single phase or the entire product design & development process, we’ve got you covered.
Our expert product design team can reverse engineer existing products and even look for optimising current designs.
What industries do you support with design engineering services?
We support a wide range of industries, including consumer electronics, automotive, aerospace, healthcare, industrial equipment, homeware, rail and more. Our expertise spans various sectors, allowing us to tailor solutions to your specific needs.
Can you collaborate with our in-house design team?
Absolutely. We seamlessly integrate with your existing team, providing additional expertise, resources, and support to meet tight deadlines and address complex challenges.
Can you help with prototyping and production?
Indeed we can. Our design department benefits from in-house 3D printing and casting technologies which means rapid prototyping and end-use product manufacturing can be handled under one roof.
What is design engineering in product development?
Design engineering in product development involves applying engineering principles, creativity, and advanced tools to create functional, innovative, and market-ready products. It includes concept development, prototyping, testing, and finalising designs for production.
How do you handle intellectual property (IP) protection?
We take IP protection seriously and follow strict confidentiality agreements. Your ideas, designs, and data are safeguarded throughout the entire development process.
Can you redesign an existing part for manufacturing?
Yes, we regularly redesign existing components to improve manufacturability, reduce costs, or replace obsolete parts. Whether you have original CAD files or just a physical sample, our team can reverse engineer and optimise the design for modern production methods.
We assess factors such as material selection, tolerances, and manufacturing processes (including CNC machining, injection moulding, and additive manufacturing) to ensure the part is both functional and cost-effective. Where needed, we can also strengthen weak points or simplify complex geometries to improve durability and repeatability.
This is particularly useful for:
-
Replacing discontinued or hard-to-source parts
-
Reducing production costs on existing designs
-
Improving performance or lifespan
-
Adapting parts for new manufacturing methods
-
We can also produce prototypes for testing before moving into full production, ensuring the redesigned part meets your requirements.
Testimonials
AME-3D's design team demonstrated expert knowledge in design and their support in manufacturing greatly simplified the process.
Yuirk Scwab
Head of Hardware Systems, Ink Aviation
AME-3D have been a trusted partner for over nine years, consistently delivering innovative solutions that drive our product success. Their proactive approach and industry expertise have been crucial in keeping us ahead of the curve.
Jim Durroch
CTO, CNI Guard
We expect the re-engineering work we are completing with AME-3D to save us hundreds of thousands of pounds as well as keep more buses on the road for longer.
Ian Hogg
Technical Services Manager, Go Ahead London
Collaborating with AME-3D on our wearable device from initial concept to final prototype has been a rewarding experience. Their structured approach ensured we could provide feedback at every stage, leading to a successful project outcome and a well-designed device.
