Manufacturing
Collaborating with manufacturers for smooth, scalable production
We stay closely involved as your product moves from design to full build—working with local and overseas makers to guide each step. Our team helps close the gap between design plans and factory work.
Streamline Process
We collaborate with manufacturers to plan each stage of production, reduce missteps, avoid delays, and ensure a smooth transition from design to high-volume manufacturing with fewer surprises.
Ensure High Yields
We design for production success by reducing sources of error, supporting test development, and working with manufacturers to improve yield rates and limit scrap, rework, or failed inspections.
Minimize Costs
We cut cost through smart part choices, simpler builds, and close supplier work—helping reduce waste, tooling errors, and overhead while still meeting performance, safety, and quality targets.
Custom parts built for production
Production parts should do more than just fit—they need to be strong, reliable, and easy to manufacture at scale. Certain projects require custom components that take into consideration materials, tolerances, and how each part interacts with others on the line.
One example of custom parts is the engine fan project, where off-the-shelf components couldn’t meet the high strength and reliability criteria required to survive a high vibration environment.
Keeping manufacturing limits in mind
A working prototype doesn’t always guarantee a product is ready for manufacturing. Many fail to account for factory limits, tolerances, or material behavior at scale.
Tooling changes can be costly
Even small updates can delay production by 4 to 12 weeks. We design with real production in mind from the start—checking fit, materials, and process constraints before parts are released.
