In today’s fast-moving manufacturing and product-design landscape, precision, speed and flexibility aren’t just desirable — they’re essential. That’s where Design and Automation Services (DAS) steps in, offering a full spectrum of CAD, 2D/3D modelling, reverse-engineering and automation services to bring products from concept to fabrication with confidence and clarity.
What Makes DAS Stand Out
1. Full-Spectrum CAD & Design Services
Many firms still struggle with legacy 2D drawings, multiple CAD formats, or lack in-house capacity for large volumes of 3D modelling. DAS addresses this with a wide range of services: CAD conversion (2D → 3D and change of formats), 3D modelling including parametric models, and drafting for manufacturing.
2. Specialist Domains (Sheet Metal, Millwork, Reverse Engineering)
- Sheet-metal: DAS offers end-to-end design—from part modelling, flat-patterning (bend allowance, K-factor, reliefs), assembly drawings, DXF nesting, etc.
- Millwork & joinery: For furniture, woodwork, cabinet assemblies, shop-drawings, BOMs, NC files.
- Reverse engineering & 3D scanning: Converting physical parts into parametric CAD models, making retrofit or legacy equipment redesign possible.
3. Design Automation & CAD Customization
In many modern manufacturing firms the biggest bottleneck isn’t initial design, but variant explosion. Where hundreds of variants differ in minor dimensions, manual modelling is wasteful. DAS leverages automation tools (e.g., DriveWorks, custom macros) to generate 3D models, drawings, BOMs automatically, thereby reducing design-cycle time significantly (they claim up to 85% improvement) and enabling mass customisation.
4. Global Outsourcing with Local Cost Advantage
With a base in Ahmedabad, DAS caters to global clients (USA, UK, Australia, Greece), offering cost-effective design resources, while working to Western standards. Their website emphasises “quality & services at a rate well lower than what they would pay for in-house or domestic services.”
5. Strong Client Retention & Testimonials
DAS highlights that 90-95% of their clients return, signalling satisfied customers and stable relationships. They also publish client testimonials praising their quality, professionalism and support.

Use-Cases: Real Business Scenarios Where DAS Adds Value
- A small OEM with legacy equipment wants to redesign parts but only has the physical machines. By using 3D scanning + reverse engineering, the CAD models are generated and used to manufacture updated components.
- A furniture or millwork business has hundreds of custom variants (cabinets, cabinets doors, frames). By using DAS’s design automation service, new variants can be generated automatically with minimal manual intervention.
- A sheet-metal fabricator needs accurate flat drawings, bend allowances, nesting files and detailed 3D assemblies for CNC manufacturing. DAS provides the modelling, drawing and DXF outputs in one go.
- A large engineering firm in the West wants to outsource high-volume drafting/modelling to keep internal engineers focused on new-product development rather than repetitive CAD work—thus reducing cost and increasing throughput.
Final Thoughts
If you’re seeking a design partner that combines solid experience in CAD, modelling, reverse-engineering and outsourcing — then look no further than Design and Automation Services. Their blend of technical capability, responsiveness and global outlook makes them a strong choice for companies ready to streamline their design workflow and accelerate product development.
