Shown here is a list of our capabilities.  If the assistance you require is even remotely related to what you see here, please do not hesitate to contact us.  We will most likely be able to help you directly or refer you to another firm that can.  

Mechanical Design
  • Products designed with state-of-the-art Autodesk Inventor 3D CAD software, for efficient and professional results
  • Design of components
    • Machined
    • Injection-molded
    • Sheetmetal
    • Rapid-prototyped (SLA, SLS, etc.)
  • Design of machines and welded assemblies 
  • Stress analysis (FEA) of components and full assemblies to optimize the strength, stiffness, weight and cost
  • Electromechanical packaging design accounting for thermal, vibration, moisture and other environmental requirements
  • Detailed mechanical design to develop the more intricate aspects of the product and incorporate Design for Manufacturability
  • Production of manufacturing drawings
  • Interfacing with manufacturers in order to keep the project on time and on budget
Electrical Design
  • General electrical design involving wiring, switches, motors, lights and other non-specialized devices   
  • Simple analog circuit design, PCB design/layout and prototype assembly
  • System-level "architecting" and engineering of:
    • Rechargeable battery systems and components
    • Embedded control systems
    • Control interfaces   
Electromechanical Product/Systems Design
  • Development of system-level operational schemes
  • Conceptual design to determine product form factor, look and feel and construction methods/materials. 
  • Specification of mechanical and electrical system components
  • Mathematical modeling of multi-energy systems (mechanical. electrical, thermal, hydraulic and combinations thereof) to determine and optimize operational characteristics and requirements
  • Concurrent design of all subsystems for a product that is completely integrated throughout the design process and upon completion
Automotive Technology
  • Suspension geometry/kinematics design for optimal performance
  • Suspension component design (machined or fabricated)
  • Steel tubular frame design
  • Engine intake manifold design (mechanical and acoustic aspects) 
  • Electronic fuel injection system-level design and component specification
