Premium 2D Drafting
National Drafting deliver professional, fast and affordable 2D drafting for mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, fabrication/shop drawings & revision changes.
At National Drafting, we are all about creative solutions and personalised services to move your project along as swiftly and as cost-effectively as possible.
Based in Sydney, New South Wales, the team at National Drafting delivers mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, fabrication/shop drawings, revision changes and as-builts in AutoCAD. While we see have seen an increase in the implementation of 3D CAD, we understand there is still a significant amount of 2D AutoCAD drawings required in the industrial and commercial sectors, which is why we offer premium 2D drafting services to a wide client base in Sydney.
What is 2D Drafting?
2D Drafting is the creation of accurate representations of objects for engineering and manufacturing needs. It is used to clearly and fully define requirements for products or concepts so as to convey all the required information that will allow a manufacturer to produce that component.
2D Floor Plans
We can convert hand-sketched drawings, PDF files or legacy drawings to 2D floor plans. Quality drafting and design relies on excellent communication from start to finish. To ensure that everything runs as smoothly as possible, please make sure that you have all of your original drawings and details in perfect order. We will accept original drawings in any form, and these can be sent to us in the mail or emailed to us. We aim to make the drafting and design process as simple and as smooth as possible for all parties involved. Learn more about our mark up guides below.
We will happily accept your PDFs, JPGs, GIFs, AutoCAD files, scanned images or other electronic files and convert them into whatever 2D format you require. Existing plans and sheets can be converted to AutoCAD (DWG files) to a full-scale 1:1, accurate and layered. All sheets are manually redrafted into to assure the converted files match the original documents exactly.
National Drafting’s Premium 2D Drafting Services Provide a Concise View of the Information You Need
2D drafting provides a simple reference of the tolerances that need to be met on critical dimensions. They also communicate how individual parts merge together to make up assemblies and provide important inspection points. 2D drafting drawings are an essential reference point for quality control across the project.
National Drafting’s 2D drawings are still the best way to communicate certain aspects of the design. For example, tapped holes should always be identified, along with the tap depth and size. Finishing information is another important note to call out. Critical dimensions and tolerances should also always be included, especially those that interface with another part in an assembly.
