The problems that don't come apart easily.
Woodtecher works with teams who have run out of straightforward answers. We take a tangled brief, break it down to what is actually true, and build the design, software and hardware that solve it.
Concept and product design, 3D CAD and engineering drawings — through to design for manufacture.
Web, mobile, data and embedded software — built to be maintained, not just demonstrated.
FEA, crash and impact, CFD and thermal — analysis correlated against real test data.
One team across the three disciplines most projects split apart.
Hard problems usually fail at the seams — between the designer, the developer and the engineer. We keep all three in the same room, so the trade-offs get made once, early, by people who understand all sides of them.
Product design
From a concept to a part a supplier can actually make. Modelled properly, drawn properly, and optimised before it reaches the shop floor.
- Product & concept design
- 3D CAD modelling
- Engineering drawings
- Design optimisation
- Reverse engineering
- Design for manufacturing & assembly (DFMA)
Product simulation
Digital twins and physics-based models that let you test a design before a single part exists. Fewer surprises on the bench, fewer late-stage redesigns.
- Digital twin development
- Multi-physics & systems simulation
- Virtual prototyping
- Simulation-driven design iteration
- Performance & durability modelling
Project management
One accountable plan across design, software and engineering — so schedule, budget and scope stay honest from kickoff to delivery.
- Programme & milestone planning
- Cross-discipline coordination
- Risk & budget tracking
- Supplier & stakeholder management
- Delivery reporting
Four stages, in this order, every time.
Frame the problem
Before anything is designed, we agree on what success looks like and what constraints are real. Most of the risk in a complex project is removed here, on paper, cheaply.
Prototype fast
Rough versions, early and often. A working prototype settles arguments that a specification document will keep alive for months.
Engineer for real conditions
Dust, bad networks, tired users, tight tolerances. We design against the environment the product will actually live in, then test it there.
Hand over and support
You get the source, the drawings, the reasoning behind each decision, and a team that stays reachable after go-live.
Three of our own, for the tyre industry.
Three Windows desktop applications that put a number, or a layout, against a design before it is built. Your tyre data stays on your computer.
AIRR
Predicts the rolling resistance of an untested tread design, learning from the tyres you have already measured. A Windows desktop application.
About AIRRPATCH
Finds the block arrangement that spreads impact energy across a band instead of concentrating it into an audible tone. A Windows desktop application.
About PATCH
ATLAS
Develops a tyre from a blank mould cavity to a simulated, inflated footprint in three connected steps, in TBR and PCR versions. A Windows desktop application.
