CRK / ENGINEERING SYSTEM / 001
Concept
to
Component
Engineering education, corporate training and engineering services — for the work that happens beyond the screen.
CAD / CAM / CAE / CNC / DIGITAL MANUFACTURING
CONCEPT
WIREFRAME
Every component starts as intent — a requirement, a constraint, a sketch.

CONCEPT
WIREFRAME
Every component starts as intent — a requirement, a constraint, a sketch.
DESIGN
SOLID CAD
Intent becomes precise, manufacturable geometry — modelled to be built, not just rendered.
ENGINEERING
DIMENSIONS / GD&T
Dimensions, tolerances and GD&T turn a model into something a shop floor can hold to.
VALIDATION
SIMULATION
Structural and thermal analysis proves the part before any metal is cut.
MANUFACTURING
CAM TOOLPATH
Toolpaths, post-processing and cycle optimisation turn geometry into machine instructions.
COMPONENT
FINISHED PART
A real component, machined to drawing — the only outcome that actually counts.
SYSTEM / ROUTING
What are you
here to do?
CRANKAD runs three divisions. They share the same engineers, the same tools and the same standards — pick the one that matches what you need.
01 / ACADEMY

SYSTEM / CAPABILITIES
The engineering stack
Four disciplines, run as one workflow. Most engineering problems don't stay inside a single one of them — which is exactly why we don't sell them separately.
DESIGN
Turn engineering intent into precise, manufacturable geometry.
- 3D modelling
- Assemblies
- Manufacturing drawings
- GD&T
- Reverse engineering
- DFM / DFA
- Product development
CRANKAD / ACADEMY

Learn the tools, workflows and engineering practices used beyond the classroom — taught the way the work is actually done.
DISCIPLINES
- 01CADModelling, assemblies, drawings
- 02CAMToolpaths and CNC programming
- 03CAEFEA and design validation
- 04CNCMachines, setups, workholding
- 05GD&TTolerancing and inspection
- 06DIGITAL MANUFACTURINGAutomation and digital workflow
EVERY PROGRAMME
- FORMAT
- Project-based, built around real components
- LEVEL
- Foundation through professional
- SOFTWARE
- Industry tools, taught on live workflows
- DELIVERABLES
- Models, drawings, toolpaths, documentation
- ASSESSMENT
- Reviewed engineering work, not quizzes
FULL CATALOGUE / IN PREPARATION
SYSTEM / PROGRESSION
LEARN
Acquire the engineering skill.
Tools, workflows and the reasoning behind them.
BUILD
Apply it through real engineering projects.
Components, drawings, toolpaths — work with consequences.
DELIVER
Use engineering capability professionally.
Work that stands up in a design review and on a shop floor.
CRANKAD is not selling video hours. The point of the Academy is that someone finishes it able to do the work — which is the same standard we hold our own engineering to.
SYSTEM / ENGAGEMENT
Engineering capacity.
On demand.
Need engineering capacity without adding another full-time engineer? CRANKAD supports project-based, recurring and outsourced CAD, CAM, CAE and manufacturing engineering work.
01
PROJECT
A defined engineering requirement.
Scope, deliverables and acceptance agreed up front. It ends when the work is delivered.
FITS
One component, one analysis, one CNC programme
02
EXTENSION
Recurring engineering support.
A standing block of engineering capacity your team draws on month to month.
FITS
Overflow, peak load, a discipline you don't staff
03
PARTNERSHIP
Long-term engineering programmes.
Embedded work across a product line, with continuity of people and context.
FITS
Ongoing development and manufacturing support
Send the requirement, the component or the drawing. Scope and commercials follow the engineering review — not the other way round.
SYSTEM / ROUTING SHEET
How a project runs
No black box. Every engagement travels the same route, and you know what is expected of you at each operation.
- OP 10
BRIEF
You send the requirement — a drawing, a model, a photo of a part, or a paragraph describing the problem.
FROM YOU / Requirement, constraints, quantity
- OP 20
ENGINEERING REVIEW
We read it as engineers: is it manufacturable, what is missing, what would we question before quoting.
FROM YOU / Questions answered
- OP 30
SCOPE
Deliverables, file formats, revisions and timeline agreed in writing before any work starts.
FROM YOU / Approval to proceed
- OP 40
ENGINEERING
The work is executed and checked against the scope — modelled, analysed, programmed or documented.
FROM YOU / Review at agreed points
- OP 50
HANDOVER
Native and neutral files, drawings and any documentation, packaged so your team can pick it up cold.
FROM YOU / Sign-off
Working on something confidential? Say so in the brief and we will put an NDA in place before you send any files.
PROJECT ARCHIVE / BUILDING
Engineering log
ENTRIES / 00
CRANKAD is currently preparing selected engineering case studies.
We would rather show nothing than show work we can’t stand behind or aren’t free to publish. Entries appear here as they are cleared.
CRANKAD / CORPORATE
Train your engineering team
Customised CAD, CAM, CAE, CNC, GD&T and digital manufacturing programmes built around your team's tools, workflows and requirements.
PROGRAMMES
- CORPORATE CAD TRAINING
- CAM TRAINING
- CAE / FEA
- CNC PROGRAMMING
- GD&T
- DIGITAL MANUFACTURING
- CUSTOMISED TECHNICAL PROGRAMMES
HOW IT RUNS
- BUILT ON YOUR WORKFLOW
- Programmes run on your tools, your part families and your drawing standards — not generic exercise files.
- SCOPED WITH YOUR TEAM
- We assess where the capability gap actually is before proposing a syllabus.
- MEASURED ON OUTPUT
- Assessment is reviewed engineering work your leads can judge, not attendance.
CRANKAD / LABS
Engineering
is changing.
Labs is our research track — where we test what automation and machine assistance can genuinely take off an engineer’s desk, and what they can’t.
R&D / IN DEVELOPMENT
Nothing here is a shipping product. It is listed so you know where CRANKAD is heading — not as something you can buy today.
- AI CAD
- Model generation and design intent capture
- AI CAM
- Toolpath strategy and cycle-time reduction
- DFM INTELLIGENCE
- Manufacturability checked at design time
- ENGINEERING AUTOMATION
- Rule-driven drawings and documentation
- DIGITAL MANUFACTURING
- Connected design-to-machine workflow
CRANKAD / POSITION
Engineering
should not stop
at the screen.
A CAD model is only the beginning.
The real challenge is taking an idea through design, engineering, validation and manufacturing until it becomes a real component. CRANKAD exists to connect those stages — and to teach the people who have to work across them.

PROJECT / INTAKE — STATUS / READY
Send the
requirement
A drawing, a CAD file, a photo of a part, a learning goal or a paragraph describing the problem. If it is engineering, it is enough to start.
- GOES TO AN ENGINEER
- Enquiries are read by someone who can judge the work, not routed through a sales desk.
- CONFIDENTIAL BY DEFAULT
- Say the word and we will put an NDA in place before you send anything sensitive.
- NO OBLIGATION
- A review and a scope cost you nothing. You decide whether the work proceeds.
