Design and develop your product with us
Design boldly – but with less risk
Big ideas come with big unknowns. That’s why an experienced technology partner can help you get your idea from prototype to product – safely and quickly. We partner with you to vet, conceptualize and test your product design and development.
Validated reference designs
Why start from scratch? You can customize any of our high-quality reference designs to get a jumpstart on developing your product design.
You’ll cut major costs and scale your manufacturing faster.
The nuts and bolts
Designing new products for manufacturing requires a mix of resources and knowhow across hardware and software. Partner with us, and our labs are your labs. Use them for testing, design for manufacturing (DfM) resources, or to tap the shoulder of one of our engineering experts for help solving that last issue.
Rapid prototyping
An idea can feel light years from a launch. But a high-quality prototype can shorten the distance.
Prototyping brings your idea into its first functional, tangible form. Make it faster and more-cost effective with 3D printing and additive manufacturing.
We help you stay on track to meet your milestones and deadlines. And we’ll do it where it makes sense for you. You can prototype out of a site local to your operations, before ramping up to full volume in a region that meets your needs.
Design for manufacturing (DfM)
You’ve nailed your product design – now let's make sure we can scale it. We’ll help you identify opportunities and unexpected challenges in the manufacturing process. Our design for manufacturing (DfM) guidance can make your product work better, become more customizable, have fewer parts and cut down non-recurring costs.
Our approach to DfM helps you cash in on your investments, reduce your time-to-market and save you the headache of discovering design issues in full scale production.
Advanced engineering and testing
Bring your product to market safely thanks to our full suite of testing – electrical, mechanical, thermal and chemical.
We test at both the component and completed product levels. So you’ll feel confident that you’re within regulatory standards, avoiding costly setbacks and delays.
