MECHANICAL MACHINE DESIGN
Our engineering team has years of extensive experience in mechanical motion and complex machine design to deliver creative, innovative systems.
We are a creative problem-solving company. From automated assembly and processing machines to integrated packing and material handling solutions to custom testing and inspection stations, SDC specializes in designing and engineering unique solutions for your most complex automation needs.
We pair cutting-edge technology with factory-proven methods to conceptualize, design and deliver quality automated machines to our customers. Our years of experience ensure you receive a thoughtful, cost-effective approach to achieve your automated production goals.
SolidWorks allows our team to work collaboratively and efficiently, producing high-quality machines.
Easy Collaboration
SDC has developed a large library with proven mechanical machine designs that our team can pull from and modify to fit a large variety of applications.
Rapid Prototyping
SolidWorks allows us to quickly prototype and simulate the functions and motions of the machine throughout the entire design process so we can increase machine performance, reliability and reduce safety risks along the way.
3D Machine Models
Our 3D virtual models allow us to bring our designs to life to provide clear, easy-to-understand views.
Secure Design Database
Our database automatically updates whenever changes are made during every part of the development chain so our team never misses a beat.

Our Mechanical Engineering Project Process
We evaluate projects in every industry and application to determine whether we can help our clients produce, process, test and pack their products faster, safer, more efficiently and less expensive than their current processes.
After gathering all the necessary information, our mechanical engineering team drafts a machine concept accompanied by an official project proposal which includes machine pricing and a delivery timeline.
Each project is assigned a lead engineer and a dedicated SDC team. A project kick-off meeting is held to ensure all the fine details are understood before the project moves into the design phase.
Our custom machines are designed, detailed, built and programmed in-house. The design and time to manufacturer depends heavily on the complexity of the project, but our open communication policy means our clients are updated every step of the way.
Once the machine has power connected, our team works through the process of dialing everything in and making sure it operates as listed in the project specification.
To ensure best performance, our machines undergo rigorous testing and analysis before they are released to production. We conduct comprehensive acceptance testing at SDC and at our client’s facility.
