A CAD request is generally more suitable for the Simple CAD Job service when:

• The requested result is clearly defined
• The geometry is relatively straightforward
• Required dimensions or references are available
• The required changes are easy to identify
• The output format is known
• There are no major unresolved design decisions
• The request does not require independent engineering analysis or validation

Examples may include simple parts, drawings, profiles, mounting plates, brackets, enclosures, basic tooling components, and clearly defined CAD modifications.

Simple 2D CAD Drawing

Examples include:

• Basic part profiles
• Mounting plates
• Bracket drawings
• Simple panels
• Dimensioned 2D layouts

Simple 3D CAD Modeling

Examples include:

• Basic mechanical parts
• Simple blocks and plates
• Brackets
• Spacers
• Simple enclosures
• Basic cylindrical components

CAD File Conversion

Examples may include clearly defined conversions such as:

• PDF to DWG
• PDF to DXF
• DWG to DXF
• STEP to STL

The actual source file and requested output must be reviewed before confirmation.

Simple CAD Modification

Examples include:

• Changing a hole diameter
• Moving a hole pattern
• Changing a thickness
• Modifying a simple profile
• Updating a basic 3D feature
• Applying clearly marked drawing revisions

A Simple CAD Job should normally include enough information to understand exactly what needs to be produced.

Useful references include:

• Existing CAD files
• Technical drawings
• Dimensioned sketches
• PDFs
• Images or photographs
• Marked-up revisions
• Reference geometry
• Required output format

Also provide:

• Dimensions
• Units
• Specific changes
• Important design references
• Intended output

If critical information is missing, the request may require clarification before the scope can be confirmed.

A request may fall outside the Simple CAD Job scope when it involves significant complexity, uncertainty, or engineering requirements.

Examples can include:

• Complex assemblies
• Highly detailed or organic geometry
• Extensive redesign work
• Large numbers of unrelated revisions
• Unclear or incomplete design requirements
• Significant engineering analysis
• Structural calculations
• Safety-critical validation
• Independent engineering certification
• Complex product development
• Work requiring extensive design decisions

These examples do not automatically determine the final scope. The actual files, requirements, and requested result are reviewed individually.

SYNCCAD follows a straightforward review process:

1. Submit Your References

Provide the files, drawings, sketches, images, dimensions, and instructions needed to understand the request.

2. Describe the Required Result

Explain what you want created, converted, or modified.

3. Scope Review

SYNCCAD reviews the available information and determines whether the request fits the Simple CAD Job scope.

4. Confirm Price and Scope

Eligible Simple CAD Jobs are confirmed at $48.

If the request falls outside the simple scope, a custom quote may be required.

5. Payment and Complete References

Production begins after payment is received and all required references and information are complete.

6. CAD Preparation

The agreed CAD work is completed according to the confirmed scope.

7. Delivery

The agreed CAD output is delivered.

For eligible Simple CAD Jobs, the target delivery time is 48 hours from payment and completion of all required information.

A clear request should answer five basic questions:

What is the source?

For example, a STEP file, PDF, sketch, image, or existing drawing.

What needs to change or be created?

Describe the exact CAD task.

What dimensions matter?

Include important dimensions and units.

What should the output be?

Specify the required CAD format when known.

What should the final result look like?

Provide a drawing, marked-up reference, image, or other information that makes the intended result clear.

Source: Mounting_Plate_Rev_B.step

Task: Modify the four mounting holes.

Change: Increase hole diameter from Ø6 mm to Ø8 mm.

Location: Keep the existing hole center locations.

Reference: Attached marked-up drawing.

Output: STEP file.

This type of request provides a clear source, specific change, important dimension, reference, and output requirement.

“Please update this CAD file to match the new design.”

This does not clearly identify:

• Which features should change
• Which dimensions are different
• Which design reference has priority
• What the expected result should be
• Which output format is required

A marked-up drawing or detailed revision description would make the request easier to review.

The confirmed scope should represent the work that SYNCCAD is expected to perform.

If additional requirements are introduced after scope confirmation, the work may need to be reviewed again.

A significant change in geometry, number of revisions, output requirements, or design requirements may affect whether the job remains eligible for the original Simple CAD Job scope.

The $48 Simple CAD Job service should not be interpreted as including independent engineering services.

SYNCCAD does not guarantee:

• Structural performance
• Safety
• Material selection
• Final tolerances
• Manufacturability
• CNC machining results
• Laser cutting results
• 3D printing results
• Product performance
• Assembly performance

The customer and their manufacturer remain responsible for final manufacturing requirements, validation, and acceptance.
