SKILLS
ABOUT DWIGHT ANTON MITCHELL
We operate within the advanced manufacturing and engineering sector, specialising in: Additive manufacturing (FDM, SLA, MJF) Reverse engineering & CAD reconstruction Rapid prototyping and low-volume production Emergency part replacement for downtime-critical systems The core of the business is simple:When a part fails, is obsolete, or cannot be sourced—we rebuild it, improve it, and deliver it fast.This is particularly relevant in industries where downtime costs money and supply chains fail, which is where additive manufacturing becomes a commercial advantage—not just a technology. Over the years, I’ve developed a skillset that goes far beyond “3D printing”:Engineering & Manufacturing: Functional part design (not cosmetic modelling) Material selection based on load, heat, UV, and wear Structural optimisation (infill, wall thickness, orientation) Tolerance and fitment validation Digital Manufacturing Systems: Development of real-time quoting systems Geometry-driven pricing engines Feasibility logic based on machine constraints Workflow automation from upload → production → checkout CAD & Reverse Engineering: Rebuilding parts with no drawings Improving weak OEM designs Creating manufacturable digital assets from physical components This is not hobby-level work—this is engineering-led additive manufacturing built for real use.Alongside the manufacturing side, I’ve designed and built a full production-ready system:This platform allows users to: Upload 3D models (STL) Automatically analyse geometry (volume, dimensions, complexity) Run feasibility checks against machine constraints Generate real-time pricing based on: Material usage Machine runtime Labour and overhead View 3D previews before purchase Proceed directly to checkout with no manual intervention This system reflects how modern manufacturing should operate—automated, transparent, and scalable, removing the traditional delays of email-based quoting. I’ve built a digital manufacturing system designed to replace slow, outdated supply chains with fast, local, engineering-led production.
