Looking for a CAD File?

Requesting a CAD file?  A drawing is not a model, and a model is not a drawing. 

More often than not, most customers have 3D modeling capabilities, and when parts or assemblies are requested, SLP has a large library of components and assemblies to share as either a “STEP” or “Parasolid” file for 3D CAD use.  These CAD models allow you to add modifications to the part such as adding holes in housings or sheet metal components for custom quotes.  These models give the customer’s engineering teams complete freedom to create customized drawings or assemblies for their manufacturing or marketing needs.

Drawings come only as PDFs.  Whether it is a line-drawing of assembled fixtures, or dimensioned parts, these drawings come as-is, and are typically dumbed-down in terms of dimensional detail.
