About Us
Mission
Mechanical Engineering firm focused on creating parts and assemblies to take your concept from an idea to a finished design. Prototypes and sketches can be converted into 3D CAD models and formal drawings, for quoting, prototypes, and production parts.
Design Specialties
Boldly Go can do this:
- Injection Molded Plastic Parts: Injection molding produces high volumes of parts for a low cost. In order to be successful, parts must be designed properly for injection molding, with consistent cross-sections, draft, and geometry optimized for the material and the tooling.
- Additive Manufacturing - 3D Printed Parts: Additive Manufacturing produces a wide variety of parts for prototyping and for production. In order to take advantage of this innovative fabrication process, product designs should be adapted to the 3D printing process to meet the functional, cosmetic, and cost requirements.
- Traditional Fabrication: Milling, drilling, turning, tapping, and forming by hand and with CNC equipment remains the optimal method for making many parts. Designing with 3D CAD modeling for these fabrication processes will make more robust and economical parts.
Experience
- More than 30 years experience in product design.
- Industrial Applications: Parts designed for strength and reliability in heavy use or harsh environments.
- Sanitary Applications: Designs which must meet FDA, NSF, or medical requirements for cleaning, toxicology, and assembly.
- Electromechanical: Incorporating electrical components and circuit boards into a product with attention to connectors, wire routing, heat dissipation and ventilation, RF interference, static electricity, and environmental extremes.
- Consumer Products: Parts designed to meet functional, aesthetic, safety, and economic needs of consumers.
