Concepts to
Stunning
Products
Precision designed products and systems, from initial idea to any means of manufacture. Race-proven results, with key partners consulting through the entire process to ensure optimal manufacturability, quality, and cost.
Services
Offered
From a concept sketch to a production-ready package, not just pretty on a screen.
Product Development
Conceptualizing, strategy, process, and patents — guiding your product from the first idea through a clear path to market.
CAD Design
Parametric CAD design packages of parts, assemblies, and drawings for rapid iterations and real-world manufacturability. Drawings based on manufacturing processes, assembly fit/function, GD&T defining tolerance, stackup, clearance, surface finish, and more.
Laser Scanning / CMM Inspection
Getting your parts into the digital world accurately with metrology-grade instruments — the foundation for preservation, reproduction, or modification.
Reverse Engineering
Transforming raw laser mesh or CMM data into real design-intent geometry, ready for redesign or reproduction.
Advertising Renderings
Hyper-realistic digital imagery and videography. Start advertising pre-sales immediately after the design phase — no need to wait for manufacturing completion.
Prototyping
Feel and touch your product for the first time by carefully selecting manufacturing processes like additive manufacture alongside the right material selections.
Testing
Design validation loop — putting your product through its paces to confirm it performs exactly as engineered before committing to production.
Manufacturing
Low or high volume, any process. We've identified best-in-class manufacturing partners for castings, injection molding, CNC machining, and more.
Consulting
Benefit from our knowledge base and experience to guide your project at any stage of the process.
“I've seen work from major OEMs like GM, Ford, and Chrysler, and Roland's designs hold their own with the best of them.

The Process
A clear workflow from the first conversation to final file delivery. No surprises, no scope creep, and no models that can't be manufactured.
Discovery Call
We discuss requirements, constraints, timeline, and budget. The right questions asked early keep revisions to a minimum.
Concept & Scope
Initial sketches, reference geometry, and a written scope document. You know exactly what you're getting before any work begins.
CAD Development
Iterative modeling with milestone check-ins. Native files, STEP, IGES, STL, DXF, 3D PDF, and more — shared at each stage for your review and approval.
Delivery & Support
Final files, complete drawing package, and fabrication notes. Available for shop questions throughout your build phase.

About
Roland
Over a decade spent designing parts that get pushed to the limit — on track, on the dyno, and in the shop. My background in motorsport engineering means I treat every model as if I'll be the one torquing the fasteners.
Whether you're chasing a class championship, building a one-off custom, or just need a legacy part reproduced accurately, I bring the same precision to every job. No sloppy tolerances, no ambiguous dimensions, no parts that can't be made.
Based in Greensboro, NC. Working with clients across North America and Europe.
