Development capacity
Your engineering team is overloaded and projects are slowing down.
External engineering partner for manufacturing companies
Engineering solutions that create real value
We help manufacturing companies develop products faster, add engineering capacity, improve manufacturability and assembly efficiency, and reduce manufacturing costs — from concept to production.

Your challenges
Engineering challenges we help solve
Engineering teams are often under pressure to deliver more projects, faster and at lower cost. We provide additional expertise and capacity when it matters most.
Time-to-market
A new product needs to reach production faster.
Production costs
The design works, but manufacturing or assembly is too expensive.
Manufacturability
Design changes are still required after production has started.
Product optimization
An existing product needs fewer parts, lower weight or simpler assembly.
Independent engineering view
A difficult project needs an experienced external technical perspective.

What we offer
Three ways we support manufacturing companies
Clear service areas for technical and business leaders who need external engineering support — not just CAD hours.
Product Development & Engineering
Concept-to-production engineering: mechanical design, plastics, DFM/DFA, CAE/FEM, prototyping and documentation ready for manufacturing.
External Engineering Capacity
Additional experienced capacity when your team is overloaded — flexible involvement on defined scopes without replacing your internal organisation.
Product & Manufacturing Optimization
Improve manufacturability, assembly efficiency and cost of existing or new products before and during production ramp-up.
Our capabilities
What we can do for you
Engineering expertise from the first concept to the realities of manufacturing and serial production.
01
CAD & Mechanical Design
3D models, assemblies, drawings and production documentation.
02
Plastic Part Design
Plastic components designed for functionality, manufacturability and cost.
03
Injection Molding
Engineering support for molded components and tooling.
04
Product Development
Concept development, engineering and preparation for production.
05
DFM / DFA
Design for Manufacturing and Design for Assembly.
06
CAE / FEM & Analysis
Engineering simulations and technical analysis according to project requirements.
07
Reverse Engineering
Analysis and reconstruction of existing components and products.
08
Prototyping & Validation
Prototype preparation and engineering validation support.
09
Design-to-Cost
Product optimization focused on manufacturing and assembly costs.
10
Technical Audits
Independent assessment of products, designs and engineering solutions.
11
Production Documentation
Technical drawings, specifications and production documentation.
12
Production Ramp-up Support
Engineering support during transfer from development to production.
Our process
From engineering challenge to production
A structured and transparent process with a clear focus on real-world results.
Analyze
We understand the technical challenge, requirements, constraints and targets.
Engineer
We develop concepts, CAD models and engineering solutions with manufacturability and cost in mind.
Validate
We support simulations, prototypes, testing and design verification.
Industrialize
We prepare documentation and support suppliers and production during ramp-up.
Our work does not end with a 3D model.
We focus on solutions that are technically sound, cost-effective and ready for manufacturing — from concept decisions through documentation and production ramp-up.
Markets and sectors
Industries we understand
Applied engineering thinking across industrial products, technical equipment and manufacturing environments.
Our approach
Why work with us
More than additional drafting capacity. A partner focused on engineering decisions that create value.
Flexible Engineering Capacity
Additional expertise when your internal team needs support.
Cross-Industry Experience
Engineering thinking inspired by solutions across multiple industries.
From Concept to Production
Support throughout the product development process.
Manufacturability & Cost
Engineering decisions made with production reality in mind.
Project-Based Cooperation
Flexible involvement according to the scope and needs of the project.
Independent Technical View
An external engineering perspective on difficult technical challenges.
We don't replace your engineering team.We make it stronger when you need additional expertise or capacity.
Commercial engagement
How cooperation typically starts
A practical commercial path — separate from our engineering delivery process (Analyze → Engineer → Validate → Industrialize).
Free engineering call
A free introductory 10-minute discussion with an engineer to understand your challenge, constraints and whether we can help — then recommend a next step. No technical analysis deliverable is included.
Technical engineering audit
A paid technical assessment when deeper investigation is needed. You receive scope, expected outputs, price and timeframe before work starts — the audit begins only after you approve the offer. Fixed prices are not published online.
Engineering project
A separately agreed project that may include product development, mechanical design, optimization, prototyping or manufacturing support.
The audit is not mandatory. If your specification is already clear, we may prepare an engineering project proposal directly.
Engineering quick review
Not sure where the biggest opportunity is?
A short initial assessment of your product, project or engineering challenge. A practical starting point for identifying potential improvements and technical risks.
