Aerospace component design and development

Schivo Group has an impressive track record for meeting customer design and development needs. Our experienced engineering team, empowered by the latest integrated software applications covering allaspects of product design, provide complete “end-to-end” solutions for our diverse customer base.We facilitate true collaborative engineering including style and form design, mechanical design, equipment and system engineering, digital mock-up, machining, analysis and simulation.

As part of our technical service our “design for manufacture” facility is an integral part of the operation. Through direct liaison with the customer’s design department, we undertake a full analysis of the component or assembly in order to develop an optimised process solution for manufacturing the component and advise on a wide range of material and surface finish options that are available to meet customer requirements.

Our product design and development expertise allows us to take product design from concept through to prototyping, testing, verification and into production utilising the following software applications:

• CATIA-5
• SolidWorks
• Delcam
• Hypermill
• Autocad
• RADAN
• Pro-Engineer
