From inital concept to finished prototype, we provide quality service with documentation and discretion.

About Avant

We concentrate on custom engineered tooling using additive manufacturing and high-performance composite materials. Collaboratively, we help our clients to develop intuitive, practical engineering solutions that are both cost-effective and ready for real-world application. Whether you're refining a concept or preparing for production, we're here to help you move forward with confidence.


Our Services

Design Support

Avant leverages advanced 3-D modeling platforms to bring concepts to life with precision. By simuating real-world performance early on in the design process, we can optimize designs for safety and efficiency before delivering fully documented, manufacturable solutions tailored to your project.

Concept Stage

  • Transform rough sketches or initial ideas into clean 3D concept models

  • Explore multiple design directions quickly so you can compare options

  • Identify potential challenges early—before time and money are invested

  • Create visuals to share your concept with stakeholders, investors, or partners

Design and Modeling

  • Develop detailed 3D models ready for engineering analysis and manufacturing

  • Generate accurate technical drawings with precise dimensions and annotations

  • Modify and optimize existing CAD files to improve performance or manufacturability

  • Convert 2D drawings or physical parts into fully editable 3D models

Simulation & Testing

  • Test designs under real-world conditions without building expensive physical prototypes

  • Run stress analysis to ensure structural integrity and identify potential failure points

  • Simulate thermal, impact, or vibration performance to meet safety and durability requirements

  • Optimize designs by removing excess material while maintaining strength

Documentation and Production

  • Generate comprehensive bills of materials (BOMs) and manufacturing documentation

  • Ensure comprehensive documentation of process from design to prototype

  • Collaborate with you to deliver high-quality, manufacturable solutions tailored to your project

Fabrication

Avant combines rapid 3D printing, advanced composites, and precision metal lathe work to bring designs to life. We draw from both modern and traditional techniques, ensuring the right process for every project.
