Draughting and Design
Develop, prototype and refine
Our design and innovation team brings creative solutions to customer challenges, combining expertise in mechanical engineering, industrial design, and prototype development. We support a wide range of industries by optimising efficiency and exploring new opportunities. From concept designs and prototypes to professional drawings for complex applications, we ensure compliance with standards and quality throughout the process. Tailored to project scale and budget, our design services add value from initial ideas to finished products, with the added benefit of being part of a multi-skilled team that handles everything from design to manufacture.
Draughting and design
Overview: Draughting and design services involve creating detailed technical drawings, 3D models, and engineering documentation used to guide fabrication, machining, and installation. This is the critical first step in ensuring that projects are functional, safe, and built to specification.
How we deliver: Kernohan Engineering’s in-house design team uses advanced CAD software (such as SolidWorks) to turn ideas, concepts, or problem statements into complete, build-ready solutions. Whether starting from scratch, reverse engineering a component, or upgrading an existing system, we provide full design support from concept to completion.
Our comprehensive services include:
2D technical drawings and detailed fabrication plans
3D CAD modelling for mechanical systems, structures, and piping
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for load and stress testing
Site measurement, reverse engineering, and digital prototyping
Full documentation for compliance, safety, or capital expenditure approval
Value to your business:
Design clarity before fabrication begins
Fewer errors and improved build efficiency
Rapid design changes and design-for-manufacture advice
Confidence that all work meets industry standards and regulations
Industries we serve: Marine, manufacturing, food processing, construction, aquaculture, and energy — particularly where custom, high-precision engineering solutions are required.
Solving problems that matter.
