When the job is a system, not a part.
Use this tier when someone has to decide how the bench, the chamber, or the instrument goes together — not only draw what you already specified. Concept through prototype CAD, project assemblies, and the documentation a fabricator can follow. Quoted as a project with a date.
$145/hr · Starting rate. Concept through manufacturing data, quoted as a project.
Included
- Concept through prototype and production model data for a full assembly
- Optical benches, breadboards, beam delivery, and mount packaging
- Vacuum chambers and envelopes: ConFlat / ISO / KF interfaces, viewports, feedthroughs, lids, and access
- HEL, HPM, lidar, and sensor housings — layout, alignment access, and field-service clearances
- Linked parametric 2D and 3D so revisions stay captured
- Design for the process you actually use: weldment, machine, sheet metal, print, or a mix
- Proposal figures generated from the same CAD
- Budget-aware iteration — we talk through cost before we model it twice
- A clean handoff package — formats confirmed on the quote
A good fit when
- A laboratory or prime that needs a bench or chamber designed, not only detailed
- A bid package that needs concept CAD and functional-device figures from one model
- A rebuild of a working instrument where packaging, access, and interfaces have to be thought through
- A team that wants one principal owning model, drawing, and illustration
Not this tier
If the design is already frozen and you only need linked drawings, rebuilds, or conversion, that is Advanced CAD at $115/hr. A single printable part with no drawing package stays on DIY. This page is for the system-level job.
