What we do
We provide a support service right from that first spark of an idea, assist
you nurturing it into a viable concept and help to turn it into reality.
We develop the concept through CAD to produce a virtual prototype, produce
marketing presentations and animations, and develop detailed prototype
drawings. We can build it for you as well
Our strength is our exposure to many different aspects of industry,
both "hands on" and design
Pelican Aircraft
Aviation Components
The Pelican is an exciting aircraft design project with a novel mission demanding an unconventional solution. Creative CAD has been involved with conceptual design and production design, and has developed innovative construction and testing techniques. Creative CAD has project management responsibility for airframe structure, controls, systems and power plants.

Drill Rig Gearbox
Mining Industry
The gearbox is designed to be installed on a portable drilling machine and is powered by a two stage hydraulic motor and allows the operator to either drill holes or take core samples.
The only in-field maintenance required occasionally is replacement of the output shaft seals, which are located in easy-to-remove housings that do not affect any other aspect of the box.

Munnin A20 UAV
Military Aviation
The Munnin A20 UAV has a long range and 48 hour endurance. Unlike most UAV's the Munnin aircraft has been designed to comply with FAR23, the US aircraft design specification for light aircraft. It is intended to fulfill a number of roles in both civil and military markets.

In-Flight Adjustable Rudder Pedals.
Aviation Components
Creative CAD has designed a range of rudder pedals for light aircraft. The pedals provide the pilot with provision to adjust pedal location in-flight and are equipped with toe brakes. A number of these pedals are installed in high performance experimental aircraft. For more information Click here

In-Flight Adjustable Propeller
Aviation Components
For installation in a 300 hp high performance sports aircraft, the prop features all-carbon blades with densified wood cores and a single billet hub construction. Each blade individually replaced.
and blade bearings can be removed in-situ. Electro-mechanical pitch adjustment from feather to reverse is available, as are two and three-blade hubs.

Stokes Engine
The Stokes engine is an internal combustion engine which does not have
the crucially limiting feature of a crankshaft. The engine was designed
and built entirely in house, and ran successfully on fuel as a four stroke
and on gas as a two stroke. More information...
Ezyloader hideaway
Designed and built following a customer request for a low profile stowed
version of the traditional loader, the Hideaway went from concept to production
in only six weeks.
The Hideaway uses a slightly scaled down version of the traditional
loader, mounted on a pair of triangular frames and extended by a hydraulic
cylinder. More information...
Hydraulic twin rotary union
Designed as an addition to the Ezyloader Hideaway, this device allows
hydraulic oil to pass from the body of the loader up to the beam, regardless
of the number of rotations of the beam. It replaced two hoses which previously
were prone to damage from excess rotation of the beam
Sheet metal forming machine
This project (more of an obsession really) was developed in-house over
several years in response to the need for a machine to form a increasingly
complex series of parts for repairs and fabrication within the aircraft
industry. Although basically a pan brake, rapid adjustment of the clamp
lock, multiple clamps and forming bars allow it to make a much greater
variety of shapes than traditional machines, and it can be easily adjusted
into several different working modes with only one tool.
The machine can form a wide range of folds not normally possible with
a pan break – reverse folds, partial folds, interrupted folds,
variable radius folds, over square folds, joggles etc. The folder is complemented
by a guillotine, a bench shear and rollers.
Powered articulated crutch
The powered articulated crutch is a device which aids people with leg
injuries, who lack the strength or stability required to rise un-aided.
This allows a higher degree of independence for some patients and also
reduces risk to care givers. The device uses a linear actuator designed
in house for the task, to telescopically extend or retract the foot. The
upper half of the crutch also collapses to allow easier stowage or to allow
the operator to use the crutch as a more convenient walking aid.
