Design and development

STEERE provides experienced design support using Catia V4 & V5, Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 5.0, I-DEAS, and Unigraphics NX5. Using electronic file exchange protocols or our ftp site, we can help develop your product for blow molding or dual process. Product development is a team effort. Engineering, Manufacturing, and Quality work together to find the most robust solutions. STEERE can help with the product realization process from design, to prototypes, to the production line.
