When designing a new product, or revamping an old one, functionality, expediency, longevity and cost-effectiveness all depend on the ability of the engineering team to foresee obstacles, overcome roadblocks and map out an overall solution that takes every variable into account. The ability to do this reliably comes only through experience and a depth and breadth of knowledge and understanding.

Nectar’s range of in-house experience, our wide network of specialized partners and a seamless integration of all engineering disciplines form the foundation of nearly two decades of successful design for our clients across a broad spectrum of technologies. We welcome challenging projects that push the envelope of design, engineering and testing.

Automation & Robotics

Electro-Mechanical Integration

Materials Research & Analysis

Mechanics & Kinematics

Mechanism Development

Plastic Product Design

Product Requirements Documents (PRD)

Structural Analysis

Sustainable Product Design

Thermal Analysis

Choosing the appropriate tool to verify an approach can save time and resources.  Advanced techniques in computer modeling can reduce the need for expensive prototypes, while a well-conceived mock up can result in faster iteration and more efficient problem resolution.  Nectar has the expertise to work seamlessly with these methods to validate design concepts quickly.

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in SolidWorks Simulation

Computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

Mock-up & Prototyping

Specifications

Code compliance

The simplest answer is usually the best answer. Our strong design team has the talent to come up with elegant solutions to complex problems, the skills to carry them out, and the track record to prove it.

Kinematics

Gearing & Drive Trains

Nectar is well versed in risk management, which is a key element of a successful product launch.

Gap Analysis

The bottom line rests on a foundation of solid and practical hardware design. Every detail must serve a purpose and be as easy to manufacture as possible. Nectar’s experience and skills result in products that exceed the customer’s expectations while meeting challenging cost targets.

Production Documentation

Design for Assembly & Serviceability

We make every effort to ensure that products are fully functional before they reach the end user. Analyzing design from a performance standpoint, we create drawings detailing the specifications of parts and how to inspect those parts for quality assurance. We outline pass/fail criteria to make quality testing virtually foolproof.

Inspection procedures

While many projects push technology into new territory, Nectar keeps its design within the scope of the manufacturer by attentively considering production requirements.  Through precise communication of design intent to close collaboration through fabrication and assembly, Nectar can head off issues long before they develop, keeping timelines shorter and costs lower.
