Electric scooter, rebuilt part by part
A production e-scooter, rebuilt in Inventor down to the last screw.
Got something you want to build?
We design products, tooling and equipment in Autodesk Inventor. Then we help you get them made, and stay until the finished part is in your hands.
Work we’re proud of
Thunder-X electric skateboardView
Our own product, from first idea to pre-production.
Aerospace fixture programView
400+ welding and inspection fixtures for two military aircraft.
Electric unicycle accessory systemView
Ten accessories, designed around a full 3D scan of the vehicle.
Su-30MKI ground toolboxView
An imported toolbox, rebuilt and now made in India.
Process equipment designView
A few inputs in a form. A finished design out.
Battery benchmark studiesView
Two production battery packs, studied part by part.
Some clients prefer to stay unnamed, and we respect that.
What we do
Bring us the design problem. Stay for the build if you like.
Product design and engineering
From a rough idea to files a factory can quote from: concept, modeling, drawings, simulation, DFMA and renders.
See Thunder-X, Unicycle accessories
Battery systems
Packs for applications that really push them, from cell choice to enclosure. Interconnects, BMS, cooling and wiring, designed as one system.
See Thunder-X, Battery studies
Reverse engineering and 3D scanning
Parts with no drawings or history, scanned to 0.05 mm on our own laser scanner or measured by hand, then rebuilt as editable models.

Fixtures, tooling and equipment
Welding and inspection fixtures, ground equipment, vessels, platforms and frames. Drawn for the shop floor, where tolerances stop being theoretical.
See Aerospace fixtures, Process equipment
Design automation
iLogic configurators and part libraries that turn a few inputs into models, drawings and BOMs. Your engineers get their week back.
See Process equipment, Aerospace fixtures
Industries
Micro-mobility and EV
Scooters, skateboards, e-bikes and unicycles, from motors and batteries down to the last bracket.
Aerospace and defense
Fixtures, ground equipment and indigenization, taken through formal approval, with every dimension checked twice.
Industrial equipment
Vessels, tanks, frames, platforms and piping, plus automation that takes the repetition out of every order.
Consumer products
Everyday products built to stand out and last. Simple ones often hide the best manufacturing puzzles.
Design is half the job
Plenty of projects stop at “it works in CAD.” We stay with yours until the parts show up.
Design
Concept, CAD and drawings, reviewed with you on the live model at every step.
Prove
Prototypes built by our partner shops, then inspected, tested and revised until they work.
Source
Suppliers matched to each part and samples approved. Medium volumes are our favorite problem.
Produce
Tooling, fixtures and QC checks in place, and the first batch signed off.
Made by manufacturers we know
We don’t manufacture in-house, on purpose. We pick the right shops for your part, in India around Bangalore, Pune and Nashik MIDC, and in China among suppliers we found building our own product. Then we stay with you from prototype to production.

Team
A small, hands-on team, with mentors from across the industry when we need them.
Tapas
Founder, systems architect
Loves making things: electric skateboards, fighter-jet tooling, reverse-engineered vehicles. Learned prototyping the hard way and brings it to founders who are just as obsessed.
Pranay
Design automation engineer
Years of design and programming on factory machinery and industrial equipment, from data centers to biotech. Turns weeks of repetitive design work into one click.
Kunal
Marketing, sales and management
An engineer at Akasa Air by day, the business side of Tactile Design the rest of the time. Makes sure what you have in mind is what we build.
Questions
Short answers. Anything else, just ask.
Will you sign an NDA?
Yes. Once it’s signed, everything stays confidential.
What files do you deliver?
Native Inventor files: parts, assemblies, drawings and iLogic rules. For everyone else, STEP, IGES and Parasolid for CAD, DWG, DXF and PDF for drawings, STL and 3MF for printing, and BOMs in Excel. Nothing is held back.
Do you work with clients outside India?
Yes. With suppliers in India and China, your product isn’t tied to one country.
How is a project priced?
A fixed-scope quote once we’ve seen the brief, with a set number of revisions. Anything beyond that is billed hourly.
