Mechanical Engineering
DEVELOP LLC provides innovative engineering, manufacturing, and automation services tailored to our customers’ specific needs. Our mechanical engineering helps serve our automation, industrial hardware, and CNC machining capabilities. Spanning product conception and design to value-added manufacturing, we help organizations in a variety of critical industries define, refine, optimize, and execute their vision.
Why Use DEVELOP LLC for Your Mechanical Engineering Needs?
DEVELOP LLC’s mechanical engineering services primarily serve the industrial market by creating mission-critical electronics that go inside automation, mining, and agricultural machinery, as well as off-highway equipment and more. Our industrial design-for-manufacturing (DFM) expertise allows us to create high-value designs optimized for cost and functionality. We’ll help you develop, prototype, manufacture, and test each device to verify operation.
Design For Manufacturing (DFM)
We leverage our design sophistication to simplify your manufacturing. We refine our designs from the start for swift product development, savings, lower cost, higher quality, and efficiency. Our commitment to supporting your bottom line is a commitment to sustain your business.
Design For Assembly (DFA)
Our manufacturing experts believe in elegant machine design. We seek design solutions that utilize commercial off the shelf parts, require minimal steps, build on modular assembly concurrent with your other products, and work with realistic tolerance stacks. We believe design mastery accomplishes uncomplicated solutions.
Mechanical Design
We guarantee components, parts, products, and systems drafts that exceed the expectations of your production needs. We take the requirements of your product, transform them into a computer aided design (CAD), and translate the practical needs of your products into quality finished prototypes.
Engineering Analysis
Our expert project engineering team applies scientific analytic principles and processes to anticipate design problems, define alternatives, and test outcomes for best case scenarios before prototyping. Our engineers are committed to refining your designs to Achieve your goals for maximum quality and minimum cost.
Fixturing and Workholding Design
We specialize in modular fixturing based on our core vacuum fixture system that can be designed to fit the needs of CNC machining, automation of robotics and custom machines, and metrology, and electrical engineering. Whether you need custom or off the shelf jigs, chucks, clamps, end stops, soft or hard jaws, locators, vises, fixtures, we can meet your workholding needs.
Industrial Product Design
Our project managers and engineers understand how to design a product that performs as well as it looks. We bring quality, consistency, cost effectiveness, and simplicity to your product lines, parts, and machines. We believe in the synergy of product details and utility, that is why product lines, parts, and machines designed by DEVELOP will stand apart.
Machine and Robotic Design
We handle the entire design to build process of machine and robotic design. With our single source guarantee we focus on your needs and achieving those with the highest ROI possible.
Robotics
Our robotics engineers can translate your production needs into points of articulation, power supply selection, actuation, sensors, end effectors, and control systems. We custom design autonomous software and hardware for hazardous, high accuracy, repetitive, and labor-intensive tasks for mass production or collaborative tasks.

Our Mechanical Engineering Process
Our mechanical engineers are part of our 360° approach at DEVELOP. As a vertically integrated operation, we assist you with turnkey solutions starting with design and prototype development processes to scale production and integration. Our process consists of the following steps:
- Design. The design phase can include product ideation, research and development, mechanical design, and more. Rather than simply using SOLIDWORKS and assuming your design is feasible for manufacturing your product, our team emphasizes DFM and DFA to optimize it for your application and manufacturing needs, budget, and time frame.
- Rapid prototyping. In this stage, we generate a prototype to provide proof of principle and/or concept models, testing the design’s suitability and the product’s functionality in its intended application. DEVELOP LLC will work with you to refine the design as needed until you’re satisfied.
- Commercialization. This step consists of production planning — including materials research and procurement, the ideal manufacturing processes, DFM/DFA, assembly fixtures, metrology requirements, and more.
- Testing and verification. In the testing stage, we have the capability to run a broad spectrum of verification, imaging, and related tests, in some cases incorporating robotic technology. These examinations may include tensile testing, drop testing, fixture design, thermal imaging, operation verification, and more.
- Analysis. This final mechanical engineering phase consists of numerous possible evaluations, simulations, and analyses, including structural, thermal, optical, and/or finite element analysis. We’ll review all gathered data to ensure your design and product meet the necessary standards for performance and application.
In addition to mechanical engineering, we offer several value-added services to make sure our customers receive the best products from a single source. These include manufacturing, CNC machining, automation, and assembly.
