A drawing tells a lot — but a good 3D model tells everything. In modern manufacturing, the 3D model is the foundation for cutting, bending, welding, and assembly. Yet many production errors still stem from unclear, incomplete, or poorly translated CAD data. At Vormelijk Engineering, we ensure that every model is not only accurate, but truly ready for production.

1) One source of truth

When the 3D model becomes the leading reference, the noise between departments and suppliers disappears. The model contains all essential information — from material thickness to dimensions and tolerances — ensuring every part is interpreted the same way, whether it’s produced in the Netherlands, Germany, or elsewhere.

2) Realistic modeling

We model exactly as the product will be manufactured — not as a visual ideal. Realistic bend radii, weld gaps, and tolerances are built in, so components fit perfectly in real life and the risk of rework is minimized.

3) Smart structure saves time

A well-structured model is not only correct but also flexible. By using logical features, references, and parameters, we can quickly create variants or apply small adjustments without rebuilding the entire design from scratch.

4) Communication between design and production

A clear 3D model makes collaboration with suppliers easier. It’s visual, instantly understandable, and eliminates interpretation errors — making it a powerful communication tool between engineer, production planner, and manufacturer.

A good 3D model isn’t a by-product — it’s the foundation of successful production. And that’s exactly where Vormelijk makes the difference.
