Project Overview

An equipment manufacturer required an existing hydraulic control console to be reverse engineered, documented, and prepared for consistent manufacturing of future units.

The Challenge

The original unit lacked complete and accurate documentation, making it difficult to reproduce reliably or implement design improvements. Key details related to fabrication, assembly, and hydraulic integration needed to be captured and standardized.

Scope of Work

Reviewed and documented the as-built console
Developed a complete 3D CAD model of the assembly
Produced detailed fabrication drawings, including:
- Sheet metal components and forming details
- Structural weldments
Created assembly drawings for production
Developed a clear and accurate hydraulic schematic

Result

The client received a complete, fabrication-ready documentation package, enabling consistent manufacturing of future units and providing a solid foundation for ongoing design improvements.

Project Overview

An equipment manufacturer required a previously fabricated mobile workshop to be fully documented and validated to support future production and marketing efforts.

The Challenge

The existing unit had no formal design documentation, creating challenges for repeatable manufacturing.

Scope of Work

Reviewed and documented the as-built mobile workshop
Developed a complete 3D CAD model of the assembly
Produced detailed fabrication drawings, including:
- Sheet metal components and forming details
- Structural weldments
Conducted finite element analysis (FEA) to validate critical load bearing components
Created assembly drawings for production
Generated high-quality rendered images for promotional use

Result

The client received a comprehensive documentation package enabling consistent manufacturing, along with validated structural performance of key components and professional-grade visuals to support marketing and sales efforts.

Project Overview

A client required the design of a mobile enclosure for high pressure testing of rotating equipment, with built in adjustability to accommodate a range of equipment sizes.

The Challenge

The enclosure needed to safely contain high pressure testing conditions while supporting high speed rotating components. The design also required flexibility for varying equipment configurations, all while maintaining structural integrity and ease of use. Multiple design iterations were necessary to refine functionality and meet performance requirements.

Scope of Work

Collaborated with the client through multiple design iterations
Developed a complete 3D CAD model of the enclosure and internal systems
Produced detailed fabrication drawings, including:
- Sheet metal components and forming details
- Structural weldments
Specified and integrated mechanical components, including motors and drive shafts
Performed strength calculations and finite element analysis (FEA) on critical components
Created assembly drawings for manufacturing and setup

Result

The final design delivered a robust, adjustable testing enclosure capable of safely handling high pressure and high speed operating conditions. The comprehensive documentation package enabled efficient fabrication and assembly, while the iterative design process ensured the solution met the client’s functional and performance requirements.

Project Overview

A client required an all-in-one solution to store, transport, and showcase display monitors and equipment used at trade shows and industry events.

The Challenge

The unit needed to function as a durable storage case, be easily transportable, and quickly convert into an effective display stand for live demonstrations. Balancing protection, mobility, and presentation within a single design required careful consideration and multiple design iterations.

Scope of Work

Collaborated with the client through multiple design iterations
Developed a complete 3D CAD model of the unit
Produced detailed 2D fabrication and assembly drawings
Created an animation to demonstrate functionality and deployment

Result

The final design delivered a versatile, user friendly unit that streamlined transport and setup while enhancing the client’s presentation at trade shows. The combination of detailed documentation and visual animation supported both efficient fabrication and effective demonstration of the product’s capabilities.
