Prototyping

Before exploring our services, we show you the process that shapes every project and ensures consistent, dependable outcomes.

Engineering Design

Prototyping

Engineering design ensures concepts and prototypes are technically sound and ready for manufacture at any production volume. This is where your vision goes from an idea to an engineered product.

Apollo Designs brings extensive hands-on experience across a wide range of manufacturing scales. We develop solutions that balance performance, cost and manufacturability, ensuring each design is both practical and innovative.

At a minimum, this stage delivers fully developed 3D CAD models, with the scope expanding as needed to include detailed technical drawings and engineering reports such as FEA, thermal analysis and kinematic studies.

Engineering Design Process

Discovery
STEP 1

Requirements Definition

Apollo Designs will work with you to clearly define practical requirements that guide the design. This ensures the product is perfectly suited for its intended application.

STEP 2

Detailed Design

Guided by the requirements, Apollo Designs will take the design through a thorough engineering process creating detailed CAD models and technical drawings that fully define the physical product.  Design for manufacture is a key part of this process to ensure the design is practically manufacturable.

Step 3

Design Optimisation

The initial design is reviewed and refined using our internal expertise and specialist supplier input. This helps to ensure the product not only fulfills all requirements but balances efficiency, manufacturability and cost, while ensuring your product maintains a competitive edge.

Step 4

Documentation Delivery

Apollo Designs will deliver a comprehensive package of CAD files and technical drawings, ready for direct use by manufacturers. Where required, we also supply supporting engineering analysis reports. With this stage complete, Apollo Designs can continue to support the manufacturing process or hand the design over to a fabricator of your choice.

Frequently asked questions

What industries and design disciplines do you work in?

Apollo Designs works across a wide range of product design and engineering disciplines. Our core experience includes industrial, automotive, aerospace, and mechanical product design but we’re not limited to these sectors. If you have an idea or product outside these areas, we’re always open to discussing how our skills and process could support your project.

Do you work with individuals as well as companies?

Yes, absolutely. Apollo Designs supports individuals, startups and established businesses alike. Our team structure and pricing are designed to be flexible, allowing us to tailor a scope of work that suits your project, experience level and budget.

Can you support just one stage of the design process?

Yes. While our services cover the full product development lifecycle, each stage can be undertaken independently. We are always happy to investigate how we can join a project at any point and tailor our support to what you need right now.

How do you approach project costs and budgeting?

We work collaboratively to define a clear scope and budget before starting. Our approach focuses on transparency and value, helping you invest in the right level of design support at each stage.

Do you help with manufacturing and supplier selection?

Yes. Through our trusted supplier network we support through manufacturing, including supplier selection, technical liaison and quality assurance. You’re also free to use your own suppliers if you prefer.

Do I need a fully defined brief before getting started?

No. Apollo Designs is set up to allow clients to come to us with early ideas rather than a complete specification. Part of our role is to help shape and clarify your brief so you can move forward with confidence.

I have a design question, can I get in touch?

Absolutely. We’re always happy to hear from people who are looking to get started in design and engineering or who simply have a question they’d like to discuss. Please use our Contact page to get in touch with the team and we’ll do what we can to help.
