CAD/CAM Prototyping

AEP have a full compliment of CAD/CAM services with rapid prototyping available on site.  If you require drawings or CAD files, our engineering department can generate these using your CAD 
data or completely from concept.  With 4-axis wire EDM and CNC machining, AIM/AEP are on the cutting edge of tool and prototype construction.  CAD files are accepted via internet or floppy disk.
Timing is everything in life, and tooling is no exception.  AEP will keep you completely up to date on your mold or extrusion die status weekly, or even daily, as you require.  AEP/AIM will build the tooling "right the first time," and we will recommend appropriate materials for the job. AEP/AIM can also manage large capital investment projects with outside tooling companies, if required.
