Engineering Services

Experienced engineering support, focused on the work that needs to get done.

From early concepts and independent reviews to calculations and detailed machine design, LZ DesignWorks supports defined engineering assignments with practical, senior-level experience.

Concept Development & Engineering Advice

Equipment concepts, layouts, mechanism selection, preliminary sizing, component selection, feasibility review, design alternatives and cycle-time considerations.

Design Reviews & Drawing Checking

Independent review of functionality, mechanical design, manufacturability, component selection, assembly, maintainability and general engineering practice.

Engineering Calculations & Analysis

Force and motion calculations, component sizing, drive calculations, structural calculations, mechanical system analysis and FEA where appropriate.

Machine Design

Custom machinery and industrial equipment, including mechanisms, drive systems, tooling, structural assemblies, conveyors, material handling and packaging equipment.

Automation, Robotics & EOAT

Robotic cell concepts, equipment layouts, reach and cycle considerations, EOAT, machine tending, palletizing, loading/unloading and mechanical integration.

Specialized Project Support

Defined mechanical engineering assignments for machine builders, automation integrators, manufacturers and engineering teams needing additional senior capability.

Senior engineering capability without adding a permanent resource.

LZ DesignWorks supports companies that need experienced mechanical engineering capability for specific assignments, small projects or ongoing technical support.

Review a machine or mechanical design before release.
Develop a concept for new equipment or a mechanism.
Check drawings, assemblies or design details.
Perform specific engineering calculations or verification.
Design a mechanism, tooling assembly or machine section.
Develop robotic cell or EOAT concepts.
Provide senior-level support to an existing engineering team.

Need experienced engineering support?

If you have a machine-design problem, a concept that needs development, a design that would benefit from an independent review, or a project requiring additional senior engineering capability, we'd be happy to discuss it.
