INDUSTRIAL EXCELLENCE

Services

01

Design

From initial design consultation and tooling development to full-scale production and
delivery, we provide complete turnkey support to bring your project to life efficiently and
reliably.

Engineering Design & Development Services :
Our in-house design team provides innovative and practical engineering solutions to
support metal stamping production, tool making with many years of lifetime experience.
We combine technical expertise with advanced design software, we use solidworks for
CAD and for CAM, Fusion 360 to transform concepts into real parts and tooling.

What We Do

  • R&D Development and Product design

  • 3D modelling and product drawings to control product quality and repeatability

  • Reverse engineering and product improvement

Design for Manufacturing (DFM)

We focus on creating designs that are not only functional but also efficient to produce.

Our DFM approach ensures :

  • Reduced material waste

  • Improved production speed

  • Lower manufacturing costs

  • Enhanced product durability and performance

  • Environmentally friendly by design

By integrating design with production capabilities, we help eliminate costly revisions and delays.

We want to design to save you cost and give you improved quality options.

Toolmaking

For your product, you need to have a press tool built and designed by a tool maker to
produce the component by press metal stamping. The same applies for plastic injection
molding tools, they will need to be put in a plastic molding machine.
Toolmakers are noted as perfectionists in the engineering trade.

Capabilities Includes:

  • Design press tools, and build

  • Heat-treating services

  • Plastic Injection Mould Design And build

  • Press Tool repair, modification, and maintenance

  • Plastic Injection Mold repair, modification, and maintenance

  • Jig and fixture fabrication
     

We ensure every tool is built to maximize efficiency, extend service life, and maintain consistent product quality, with expert craftsmanship from many years of experience in the industry.

CNC Milling production

CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control.
Instead of a human manually guiding cutting tools, a computer follows programmed
instructions to control the milling machine’s movements, machine cuts fast and automated
with multiple tools that run in a program to produce the part. With different cutter sizes and
geometry, also within the program you can have multiple drill sizes and taps for creating
threads. The many processes to manufacture the part are in one program that runs the mill to
give you the finished final component.

Advantages

  • Intricate (shapes, pockets and 3D surfaces)

  • Multiple (steps linked together in CNC program to produce the part)

  • High precision (tolerances within microns)

  • Automation (less human error)

  • Repeatability (identical parts every time)

  • Flexibility (easy to change designs via software)​

Example

Imagine making a metal phone case:

  • Design it on a computer

  • Generate tool paths

  • Load an aluminum block into the CNC mill

  • The machine cuts away everything that isn’t part of the case

  • Repeat production for quantity required

INDUSTRIAL EXCELLENCE

Metal Stamping production

Press metal stamping is a high-speed manufacturing process where flat metal or coil metal is fed automatically into a press that applies force to cut and shape metal into the design finish component using a press tool. This gives you low cost, high quantity manufacturing.


We have mechanical presses ranging from 30 tonne to 125 tonnes. We also use hydraulic presses which gives us an advantage to stretching the metal into deep drawing component products. Such products can be bowls, oil filters, etc.


We specialize in high-precision metal stamping solutions designed to meet the demands of modern manufacturing.

Materials We Work With

We process a wide range of metals to suit different applications, including:

  • Stainless steel

  • Aluminum

  • Carbon steel

  • Copper and brass

  • Specialty alloys

  • Zinc, galvanized and tin coated materials​

Quality Assurance

Quality is built into every stage of our production process. From raw material inspection to
in-process monitoring and final verification, we ensure all components meet strict industry
standards and client specifications with repeatability quality assurance.​

What Our Customers Are Saying

Jon-Brian Parker

I have worked with Chris now for more than 5 years. He has done tool design, tool making and maintenance for me, and of late some contract metal pressing as well. One instance I set him a complex brief to perforate a strip of aluminium with a high number of holes every 52mm where flatness was critical. That was delivered, with only minor easing to allow for variation in extrusion required. I was very impressed with the outcome. Kimberley Tool & Design – Waihi

Nick Townshend

Chris from CJ CAD Services undertook a sheet metal design project for me which required a huge amount of precision and attention to detail in order for the end product to be fabricated with ease and to a high standard. The design and cutting files I received from Chris exceeded expectations and every small detail had been thoroughly thought through which resulted in the end product being perfect!

Sharpshifter LTD.

Hi Chris. I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for all the help you gave me with the programming of injection molding tools done on our Hass VF 2 SS .I found you very knowledgeable , helpful and efficient with the machining time and finishes that you produced.What was a great feature you enlightened me to was the tool path simulations which I found to be a great tool in Fusion 360.I won't hesitate to use you again if we need extra programming in the future.I wish you all the best in your future endeavors Best regards Gerry Jackson .

Gerard Simpkin

Chris Sukkel has been carrying out design tasks for us in the last 12 months. The work has involved development of concepts to a specification from scratch as well as modifications and improvements to existing industrial designs. Chris works with accuracy and has input into design ideas has been well worthwhile. Whilst he respects the overall scope and concepts delivered to him, his input has always enhanced the original ideas, both from a tooling for production and a cost per unit point of view. Manufacturers have also complimented his annotations to drawings as easy to understand and not overdone, whilst retaining the detail required to manufacture accurately. This is important to us, as drawings and instructions for manufacture are often translated from english into other languages and to much detail can confuse. We would recommend Chris for this type of work and happy to provide references as required.

Matt Cooney

We at Trenchit used Chris for a project designing up a complicated pipe chute to use for laying pipe behind drainage trenchers that we manufacture.We found Chris very good to deal with and had plenty of innovated ideas .The job was completed on time and worked spot on from the beginning .

Tony Rodger

Chris at CJ CAD services has worked on a series of 3D models and product concept designs for projects that we have undertaken at Global Roofing. I found him to be very professional and thorough in his work. Chris very often went above and beyond what was expected. I would have no hesitation in recommending his services in the future.

Garth Walton

We at Teknic design have been dealing with Chris at CJ CAD Services for the past 4 years and have found him to be competent and friendly service and has been very helpful in benefiting our business through networking. We recommend CJ CAD Services to anyone in the field who is looking for 3D design work from concept to finished product.
