Our mechanical engineering experts possess extensive experience in identifying failure mechanisms, as well as inspecting and designing mechanical systems and products. Mechanical engineering applies engineering principles to the analysis and design of power producing and power using machinery. This includes the design and engineering assessment of heavy equipment, material handling equipment, land vehicles, marine vessels, aircraft, industrial machinery, cranes and hoists, and specialty equipment and structures. Our analysis and design can range from welded connections and fasteners to finite element analysis (FEA) and testing of structural designs. Our testing laboratory and portable testing capabilities allow us to self-perform most, if not all, of the analysis in-house. Our engineers, inspectors, and project managers work closely with our clients every step of the way to ensure they are fully satisfied with our solutions. Our team is on call and ready to respond immediately to emergency or time sensitive issues. 

It’s one thing to identify a problem, but it’s another to create a solution. Our expertise in root cause failure analysis is our design advantage. Utilizing structural finite element analysis (FEA), thermal dynamics, Computational Fluid Dynamics, corrosion allowances, materials selection, and other known methods of proper design, we provide a full gamut of services to ensure your part, component, product, or piece of machinery functions at the highest level.

Further, we perform all types of field and laboratory simulations to assure proper performance or defect analysis, including strain gaging and residual stress testing and short- and long-term system testing, such as plumbing fitting performance testing or health related equipment testing, all in pursuit of the truth about a specific product, tool, or piece of equipment.
