From description to part

A bracket for your workbench, a flange for your project, a plate with exactly the right holes. You know what you need, you have the dimensions or a sketch, but no CAD file. With the Parts Builder, you create that file yourself, simply by describing what you have in mind.

  1. Describe it. Type what you need: shape, dimensions, thickness and holes.

  2. Shape it. You instantly see a 3D model. Refine it with a new sentence, or adjust the dimensions yourself.

  3. Order it. Happy with it? Submit your part, choose your material and see the price and delivery time. Delivery from 48 hours.

Two ways to start

1. Start with your own words. Know exactly what you want? Describe it in as much detail as you like: shape, dimensions, thickness and holes.

2. Start with a shape. Prefer a starting point? Choose a plate, flange ring, connecting strip or L-bracket, for example. The description is ready to go, and you adjust the dimensions, holes and cut-outs.

Refine until it's right

Your part appears in 3D straight away, with its dimensions. Something not quite right? You choose how to adjust it.

  • With a sentence: "make the upright leg 200 mm high" or "add two holes".

  • With the dimensions: enter exact values for every face, hole and bend.

  • With the material: choose the material and thickness you need.

  • With the bend preview: see your part laid flat and how it will be bent.
