Denver Product Design Engineering Services

At Auell Consulting, our Denver product design engineering team combines art and the science of product engineering to design new products.  They are experts in taking technical knowledge of physics, material selection, manufacturing processes, tooling, and quality control to develop manufacturable products.  They have professional experience in part design, plastic injection molding, extrusion, thermoforming, metal fabrication, and metal injection molding (MIM), glass forming, and more.

Why Innovators Choose a Dedicated Mechanical Engineering Design Company

To reach a superior end product, it’s essential to consult a mechanical engineering design company who has years of experience bringing products from idea to market.  Whether you have a brand new product to develop or need engineering input on critical step along the way, our product design engineer team is here to solve these design challenges.  Since our cross-functional team works so closely together, we are able to fully integrate industrial design and mechanical engineering.  This ensures that your product not only represents your brand identity, but meets functionally requirements as well.

Production Ready Designs

When designing and engineering products, we make sure to implement good Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) practices.  This ensures that your product is of the highest quality and the design is production ready.  Engineering the best products demands taking into account fabrication, assembly, vendor qualification, and quality control.  Taking these critical elements into account during the engineering phase of product development helps to efficiently bring your product to market.  Our Denver product design engineering team can help make this process easy.

Denver Product Engineering from Concept to Consumer

Phase 1: Strategy & Ideation

• • New Product Concept: We map out your initial brainstorms, identify market gaps, and evaluate feasibility.
  • Marketing Analysis: We perform “Competitive Shopping” (Comp Shops) to establish target pricing and identify standout features.

Phase 2: Design & Aesthetics

• • Industrial Design: We balance appearance and utility, defining user interaction, styling, forms, and potential materials.
  • Concept Sketching: We create rapid visual sketches or rough 3D CAD to align on the overall visual identity of the product.

Phase 3: Engineering & Optimization with our Product Design Engineer Team

• • Product Engineering: We dive into the math, using SolidWorks to build precise 3D Computer-Aided Drawings (CAD).
  • Manufacturing Study (DFM): We audit the files to minimize part counts, lower factory costs, and streamline eventual assembly.

Phase 4: Validation & Refinement

• • Prototyping: We build physical, functional parts using our in-house 3D printing lab to test fit and structural integrity.  >Go to Prototyping
    

     

  • Design Revisions: If testing reveals an area that could be improved, we revise the CAD files before generating final factory drawings.

Phase 5: Production & Launch

• Tooling & Sourcing: We source reliable factories globally (US, China, India, Mexico) to manufacture custom production molds and products.
• Branding & Sourcing: We coordinate packaging, logo design, and initial logistics to set up for market launch of the product.
