Overview

Sample Project Image for Product Development

Product Development

Employing an array of advanced manufacturing tools, we offer our clients a versatile range of product design possibilities. Our teams often become an integral part of our clients' product development groups. They are normally involved in reviewing product designs, generating specifications, providing manufacturability assessments, providing design alternatives, and undertaking design and fabrication responsibility for a portion of the product.

Sample Project Image for Automation Systems

Automation Systems

Manufacturing automation begins with a thorough understanding of the requirements of the process, followed by a review of commercially available state-of-the-art technologies that may be incorporated. In the cases where there is sufficient commercially available technology to accomplish the desired task, our engineers and scientists work with our clients to select the best solutions and implement the chosen technologies in a cost effective fashion. If commercial technology is not available, we undertake a technology development effort on behalf of our clients that addresses their needs. All of these steps are conducted with a view towards process automation that is both cost effective and meets the production needs of our clients.
