CAD Design and Drafting Services
You know the part you need, but need to bring it to life. We design and reverse engineer parts to create precise CAD drawings made for manufacturing.
Every Part Begins With A Plan
You know the part you need, but you need a precise plan to bring it to life. At Ephrata Precision, our CAD design and drafting services transform your ideas, sketches, or sample parts into accurate, production-ready digital models. Whether you’re starting from scratch or reverse engineering a prototype, our CAD technicians create the files that move your production forward quickly and precisely
From our headquarters in Lancaster, PA across the Mid-Atlantic, manufacturers and engineers turn to us for CAD files that meet their specs. You get a smart plan designed for function, fit, and flow so you can move straight into manufacturing.
3D CAD Designs For Part Manufacturing
3D CAD designs for manufacturing bring your part to life before production begins. It shows how components fit, function, and perform all in one shareable digital file. Our detailed 3D models give your team, from engineers to machinists, a clear, all-angle view of the part before a single cut is made.
Spot flaws early, test ideas fast, and hand off production-ready files with total confidence.

Turn Your Idea Into A Manufacturing-Ready CAD Design
You have the vision. We help bring it to life. Our Lancaster-based CAD technicians translate your ideas into precise, production-ready files that meet the strictest tolerances. With Ephrata Precision, your design is accurate, scalable, and ready to meet even the tightest deadlines
Reverse Engineer Your Prototype At Ephrata Precision
When you have a working part but no CAD file to back it up, our reverse engineering solutions are here to help. Whether it's a one-off part or a legacy component with no documentation, we recreate it digitally so you can replicate, refine, or scale it.
Think of a worn aerospace bracket from an older aircraft: no drawings, no digital files, just the part itself. Using coordinate measuring technology, we can capture every detail and rebuild it in CAD, ready for modern machining and production.
We’re Here to Support Your R&D Departments
Working on a new design? We collaborate with your R&D team early in the process to refine prototypes and ensure your CAD modeling is built for manufacturability, helping you move faster with fewer revisions.
What Is Coordinate Measuring Machining?
Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) capture every feature of your part with extreme precision to create an exact CAD model. This process is essential for accurate reverse engineering and ensuring production-ready designs.
Already Have A Drawing?
Got a design? We’ll convert it into a manufacturing-ready CAD model. Here’s how we transform your drawing into a precise, scalable digital file ready for production:
1
Review Your Original Drawing
We examine your blueprint or sketch to understand dimensions, materials, and critical specs.
2
Digitize the Design
If it’s not already digital, we recreate the design in professional CAD software as a foundation for modeling.
3
Build the 3D CAD Model
Using the original drawing, our technicians create a detailed 3D CAD model, incorporating tolerances and features optimized for manufacturability.
4
Check for Tolerance and Scalability
We confirm the model meets required tolerances and can scale to fit your production needs.
5
Optimize and Deliver CAD Files:
Final CAD files (e.g., STEP, STL) are refined for CNC machining, injection molding, or your preferred process.
6
Ready for immediate use!

Common Questions About Our CAD Design Services:
What software do we use to design?
We primarily use industry-standard CAD software like SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and Fusion 360 to create accurate and detailed designs. These tools ensure precision and compatibility with various manufacturing processes.
How do I send CAD designs for manufacturing?
Simply provide your digital files in formats such as STEP, STL, or IGES to begin the manufacturing process. Our team will review the designs and prepare them for the next steps in the production process.
How do I manufacture a part for which I don’t have a drawing?
If you don’t have a drawing, we can reverse engineer your part from a physical prototype or sample. Our team uses advanced scanning technology and CAD software to create a precise, manufacturable digital model.
