Engineering & Design

FROM AN IDEA TO A PART THAT CAN BE MADE.

Mountain Path Design combines manufacturing experience with hands-on design and problem solving. Whether you are starting with a sketch, refining a component, or developing a fixture, we connect the design to how it will be made and used.

DESIGN WITH THE NEXT STEP IN MIND

• Concept & Part Development

  • • Define the job the part needs to do, the space it must fit, and the constraints that matter. Develop or refine the geometry with materials, assembly, and manufacturing in mind.

• Fixtures & Process Aids

  • • Purpose-built workholding, locating features, soft jaws, and assembly tools designed around the operation and the problem you need to solve.

• Prototype & Refine

  • • Use 3D printing or machining to evaluate fit and function before committing to the next version. Physical testing helps connect the CAD model to real-world parts.

ONE PROJECT, CONNECTED CAPABILITIES

With CNC milling, laser processing, and 3D printing in-house, we can consider multiple approaches as a project develops. A printed prototype may help validate a design before machining; laser engraving can add the final identifying or decorative detail.

WHAT TO SEND

Start with a sketch, photographs, an existing model, a drawing, or a description of the problem. Helpful details include:

• What the part or tool needs to do

• Critical dimensions and how it connects to other parts

• Expected loads, environment, or operating conditions

• Material preferences, quantity, and target timing

• What you have tried and what needs to improve

HOW WE WORK TOGETHER

1. Understand the goal, constraints, and desired outcome.

2. Discuss design work, manufacturing options, and project scope.

3. Build the agreed prototype or component and evaluate the next steps.
