Six disciplines.
Quote-on-request.
Region-appropriate pricing.

Six disciplines. One standard. Every brief.

RKT does not publish rate cards. Every engagement is scoped against the specific brief, sector, complexity, timeline, and your region, and quoted within one working day of a discovery call. Rates are region-appropriate: EU/US/ME clients are billed at international tariffs; SA clients at regional parity.

§ 01 · Discipline

CAD Design

Parametric modelling, from concept surface to production GA.

We work natively in SolidWorks, Autodesk Fusion, and Inventor. Our brief covers concept ideation, surface design, part modelling, full assemblies, tolerance analysis, and drawing packages ready for the shop floor. Every CAD deliverable is parametrically rebuildable, version-controlled, and handed over with its full revision history.

Deliverables
  • Concept & surface modelling
  • Part & assembly design
  • Tolerance stack analysis
  • Production-ready drawing packages
  • GA drawings & BoMs
  • Revision-controlled archive
Platforms · Tools
  • SolidWorks
  • Autodesk Fusion
  • Inventor
  • Rhino

CAM Programming

Precision toolpaths for 3-, 4-, and 5-axis machining centres.

CAM is where design meets the spindle. We program complex toolpaths for aluminium, composite, timber, and mould-making operations, with rigorous simulation, fixture design, and first-article validation. Our CAM output is readable, maintainable, and tuned to the specific capabilities of your target machine.

Deliverables
  • 3-/4-/5-axis toolpath strategies
  • CAM simulation & collision detection
  • Fixture & workholding design
  • Post-processor tuning
  • First-article inspection plans
  • Operator setup sheets
Platforms · Tools
  • Fusion CAM
  • Mastercam
  • PowerMill
  • HSMWorks
  • Vectric Aspire
  • RhinoCAM
  • AlphaCAM

Tooling & Fixtures

Hull plugs, moulds, jigs, fixtures, designed and delivered.

From monolithic hull plugs for serial yacht production to precision fixtures for repeatable machining, we treat tooling as a first-class engineering discipline, not an afterthought. Every tool is designed around the part's production economics, maintenance cycle, and lifespan.

Deliverables
  • Hull plugs & mould tooling
  • Machining fixtures & jigs
  • Assembly tooling
  • Inspection gauges
  • Tool-life & maintenance planning
  • Production economics analysis
Platforms · Tools
  • SolidWorks + Fusion
  • Large-format 5-axis CNC
  • MDF / EPS / aluminium

Engineering Training

Upskilling in-house teams on CAD, CAM, and CNC workflows.

We deliver bespoke training programmes for in-house engineering teams, on-site or remote, on the exact platform and workflow you run. Not generic software training: RKT training sessions use your live projects, your tolerances, your production constraints. Teams leave with measurable capability, not just certificates.

Deliverables
  • Platform-specific curriculum
  • Live-project training exercises
  • Assessment & capability mapping
  • Workflow documentation
  • Mentor-led follow-up sessions
  • Certification on completion
Platforms · Tools
  • SolidWorks
  • Fusion
  • Inventor
  • Mastercam
  • Vectric Aspire
  • RhinoCAM
  • AlphaCAM
  • CAM programming training
  • CNC operation

On-site Consultancy

Embedded engineering support at your facility.

For clients facing a specific production bottleneck, design review requirement, or engineering challenge that benefits from embedded presence, we deploy on-site. Day rates, week rates, or month-long embeddings available; all scoped with clear deliverables and exit criteria before we step on site.

Deliverables
  • Design review & optimisation
  • Production bottleneck diagnosis
  • Engineering mentorship
  • Process documentation
  • Vendor & supplier audits
  • Full technical handover
Platforms · Tools
  • On-site · remote-hybrid · fully remote

Project Management

Turn-key delivery of industrial and marine engineering programmes.

For large engagements, a full production line, a complete tooling suite, a new-model yacht programme, RKT takes prime responsibility: scope, schedule, budget, quality, and client communication. Subcontractors managed, risks logged, milestones gated. The client sees one interface; we handle the rest.

Deliverables
  • Scope & budget definition
  • Schedule & milestone planning
  • Subcontractor management
  • Risk register & mitigation
  • Weekly progress reporting
  • Commissioning & handover
Platforms · Tools
  • PRINCE2-informed · agile-capable · bespoke to engagement
