Cadwerx designs include rigid, rigid-flex, and flex boards. We have designed many multilayer, high-speed, RF, analog, mixed, and controlled impedance boards in a variety of form factors.  In addition, we can build and maintain the customer's schematic symbol and CAD libraries, compliant with IPC standards or created per the customer's preferences. Cadwerx is very proficient with Pads and Orcad tools, having contiguous use of all releases.

Need a Designer that is local to you?

Distance is not a problem! We use Online Meeting, which is just like having a designer sitting at your desk. Your computer screen will show exactly what is on the designer's computer screen. You can collaborate with us on any aspect of the design, with all work done in real time. It's easy and convenient, and you don't need to purchase special software. Working with us using Online Meetings will save you time, and provides you with additional control over your projects.
