Engineering Services (EES)

Smart development work considers aspects of automation and rationalization and integrates synergies and economies of scale. Within our defined development process, we work with you on the requirements specification as well as on the design specification, create concepts and functional prototypes (proof-of-concept), plan the project from detailed design through to prototype and transfer to the series production. Here, quality and cost awareness (design-to-cost) are of utmost importance - both in development and in the final product manufacturing.

Increasing your efficiency to remain competitive and maintain a viable management is indispensable. By improving the use of existing resources we optimize your operations procedures. The unlocking of economization potential is an ongoing process, but should not lead to a rigid focus on it. Yet, if major progress is neglected it can mean fatal consequences for the company's development. We advise you both in terms of cost-effective technical solutions and manufacturing processes.

The trend in the electronic modules development is towards ever smaller printed circuit boards with even more power and reliability. The requirement of almost all industries’ miniaturization of components pose permanent challenges for developers. We have a profound knowledge in analog and digital electronics, as both come to fruition in our own products. In particular, the aspects of EMC and explosion protection flow together at the beginning of the development process, and include the following services:

• Concept development
• Functional prototype (Proof-of-Concept)
• Schematic design
• Simulation
• Layout creation
• Prototype
• Test
• Provision of production data for PCB and electronics manufacturing

The complexity of electronic devices and systems is rapidly increasing. Multiple functions must be integrated into a system and be available immediately. Thus, in the development of complete devices and systems in addition to the electronic development, further skills such as mechanical design and development of firmware (low-level hardware control) and software (superordinate control and user interface) are required. We offer you all this from a single source. In all areas we work with the most modern development tools such as 3D CAD and dynamic processes simulation of mechanics or UML (Unified Modeling Language) in the software.

The simulation of circuits by computer or corresponding circuit simulation programs is a common development tool in the development of electronic devices today. So the operation of simple or complex digital circuits can be simulated accordingly, and can be verified and tested without the new circuits needing to be actually produced. For us, simulation is part of the daily engineering work for digital circuits in the electronics domain and of flows (e.g. air, heat) in the mechanical part. Of course, we dispose over the corresponding development tools.

From the ergonomic user interface (GUI, touch) to control and regulation algorithms (DSP programming), we cover the entire range of software relevant for instruments and other electronics equipment. For specification and object-oriented design, we use design patterns and the Unified Modeling Language (UML).

Prototyping quickly provides first results in the software or mechanical development and is carried out on either our own CNC robot or through 3D printing. This enables early feedback of the suitability of the approach. Any problems and change requests can be identified and quickly resolved with much less effort than after full completion.

The packaging of a product is an essential marketing tool for the OEM customer. In addition to communication of the product features, the essential task is to ensure the safe transport of the product.

In our company the design of appropriate packaging is part of the whole development process. We design both primary packaging (direct product shell) as well as secondary packaging (containers with a defined number of primary packaging).

For the realization of your packaging we have a network of suppliers that manufacture a wide variety of packaging solutions.
