F-CAD

Photorealistic rendering

Product images and animations made from the engineering model, true to scale and finish.

Rendered from the CAD model
You send
CAD models in Inventor, SolidWorks, STEP or IFC, and references for finishes
You get back
High-resolution stills, turntables and exploded-view animations in the sizes and formats you need

Made from the engineered model

Every render starts from the controlled CAD geometry itself, so the product people approve is the product that gets made.

Materials and light

Polished and coated metals, plastics and glass are set up under realistic lighting, so finishes and colour options can be judged before samples are made.

Updated with the design

When the design changes, the images can be rendered again from the updated model without rebuilding the scene.

Where renders are used

  • Design reviews and approvals
  • Proposals, brochures and technical documents
  • Product launches and websites
  • Turntables and exploded-view animations

Questions we are often asked

Which files do you work from?

CAD models in Inventor, SolidWorks, STEP or IFC, keeping true dimensions and materials throughout.

Can you show real materials and lighting?

Yes. We set up finishes such as polished metal, coated surfaces, plastics and glass under realistic lighting.

Do you make animations?

Yes. Short animations, turntables and exploded-view sequences for presentations and technical documents.

Can the images be updated as the design changes?

Yes. Our workflow is parametric, so updated designs can be rendered again without starting from scratch.

Tell us what you need to show

Describe the product, where the images will be used and how many views or animations you need.
