About In-House CAD Services
Relying on external drafting contractors disconnects the design from the manufacturing reality. This disconnect causes fabrication errors, dimensional clashes, and costly site delays. Integrating your CAD drafting directly with the manufacturing facility guarantees technical precision and workflow efficiency.
HMR Supplies provides dedicated in-house CAD services tailored specifically for commercial construction and industrial metal fabrication. We translate your site measurements and concepts into fabrication-ready technical drawings.
Operating in-house means our drafting team works directly alongside our manufacturing floor. This guarantees that every fold, cut, and material specification in the drawing aligns exactly with our machinery capabilities, eliminating the risk of unmanufacturable designs.
Our CAD Workflow Process
Fragmented communication between site managers, draftspersons, and fabricators causes project bottlenecks. A consolidated workflow ensures technical accuracy and rapid project progression.
Project Brief and Consultation
Submit your requirements, sketches, or architectural plans. We assess the material requirements and structural constraints to establish a clear manufacturing pathway.
Site Measurements and Specifications
Working from inaccurate site data guarantees fabrication failures. We process your exact site measurements and cross-reference them against structural tolerances and material limitations.
CAD Drafting and Technical Detailing
Our drafting team develops precise 2D and 3D models. We detail every tolerance, fold angle, and joint to ensure the component performs structurally in its intended environment.
Design Review and Revisions
Releasing unchecked drawings causes costly material waste. We supply detailed drafts for your review, allowing for immediate technical revisions before any metal is cut.
Fabrication-Ready File Preparation
Generic file formats often fail to translate to CNC machinery. We generate exact DXF files and shop drawings configured specifically for our laser cutters and press brakes.
Manufacturing Coordination
We send the approved, machine-coded files directly to our fabrication floor. This internal handover eliminates third-party miscommunication and guarantees the final product matches the approved draft exactly.

Recent CAD Projects
Commercial Cladding CAD Package – Parramatta
Scope: Produced detailed fabrication-ready CAD drawings and shop drawings for a large-scale commercial cladding installation project in Western Sydney.
Outcome: The in-house drafting integration eliminated external revision delays, ensuring the custom architectural panels were laser-cut and folded to exact tolerances. This guaranteed a flush installation on site, preventing water ingress issues and keeping the builder strictly on schedule.
Why Choose HMR Supplies
Outsourcing your drafting to generic design firms creates a gap between theory and manufacturing. Designers who do not understand sheet metal machinery tolerances draft components that cannot be built.
Choosing HMR Supplies guarantees that the drafter detailing your project understands exactly how the metal behaves when cut and folded. Our in-house CAD team works parallel to our fabrication floor, ensuring fast turnaround times, technical accuracy, and a collaborative workflow. We operate right here in Sydney, giving you direct access to the team handling your commercial project.
Service Areas
Sourcing materials from interstate suppliers causes unacceptable freight delays. HMR Supplies operates from Revesby, guaranteeing fast distribution to commercial sites and workshops across New South Wales.

Frequently Asked Questions
What CAD software do you use?
We operate industry-standard CAD and solid modelling software. This ensures complete technical accuracy and guarantees compatibility when exporting fabrication-ready files to our CNC machinery.
Can you create fabrication-ready drawings?
Yes. Creating fabrication-ready drawings is the core function of our CAD department. We detail exact fold allowances, material thicknesses, and cut paths so the file goes directly into production without secondary interpretation.
Do you provide DXF files?
We generate and process DXF files daily. If you have an existing DXF, we audit it for machine compatibility. If you only have a sketch, we draft the exact DXF required for laser cutting or routing.
Can you work from sketches or concepts?
Yes. Submitting a dimensioned hand sketch allows our team to draft a formal, mathematically accurate CAD model. We verify your measurements against standard manufacturing constraints before proceeding.
Do you offer revisions?
Site conditions change, requiring immediate dimension updates. We process technical revisions rapidly to ensure your fabrication files match the current site reality, preventing the production of obsolete parts.
Can your CAD drawings integrate directly with fabrication?
Our drafting department exists specifically to integrate with our fabrication floor. The parameters set in our CAD software align perfectly with the tooling on our press brakes and the kerf of our laser cutters.
Do you provide roofing and cladding shop drawings?
We draft precise shop drawings for complex roofing intersections and architectural cladding facades. These drawings dictate exact panel sizes and installation sequences, eliminating guesswork on site.
What file formats do you accept?
We accept standard architectural and engineering formats, including DWG, DXF, PDF, and STEP files. Submitting vector-based formats accelerates the transition to manufacturing.
What is your turnaround time?
Turnaround times depend strictly on the complexity of the component and the clarity of your initial brief. We provide precise timeline commitments upon reviewing your project requirements.
