Systems design
Tell us your plans and together weβll make them happen
You have an idea of what you want to achieve, but you donβt know how to achieve it – yet.
New systems designed or upgrade your old systems with new tech
You might need to get new systems designed from scratch or upgrade your old systems with new tech.
Either way, our engineers can draw on decades of experience to design the system you need, creating the bridge between your plan and an operational process. Itβs the next step to get your idea up and running, making a difference in your business and the wider world.
Our engineers have created turnkey solutions for aerospace, utilities, mining, automotive, textiles, life science, packaging, crane and hoist, web transfer and many other fields.
The SDS system design process
You will receive a dedicated Project Engineer who will oversee the project. The following process ensures your operational requirements are understood and your project is delivered on time and to budget:
- First, we will meet with you to understand your needs. Weβll talk through the solution and estimate the costs.
- Next, weβll clarify the engineering details of the project and carry out an energy audit.
- Youβll receive drawings of the concept electrical schematics. This will give you a chance to suggest adjustments before we begin ordering parts.
- The project schedule will be set in place, ensuring we meet crucial dates.
- Motors and drives will be sized and parts ordered.
- Weβll build and assemble the system on our site.
- And then deliver it, install it and test its functions.
- We will also commission all devices to optimise their efficiency and ensure a maximum lifespan.
