Mechanical Engineering is an engineering discipline that involves the application of principles of physics for analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. Sonos Mechanical Engineering team has the experience you expect and is ready to help you reach your objectives. Specifics: Sonos is a full-service product design firm offering complete mechanical and electronics engineering services. We utilize Solidworks 3D CAD solid modeling software and CNC technology to insure that your products are developed with optimum accuracy and efficiency. The latest rapid prototyping and CNC techniques are employed to create models directly from CAD data. This allows new designs to be accurately evaluated prior to making tooling, greatly reducing the possibility of making costly and time-consuming mistakes.
Our manufacturing engineering capabilities include analyses of production cost and tolerance stack-up issues. Tooling and manufacturing costs are carefully evaluated as an integral part of the development process to assure market competitiveness of the finished product.
Sonos can provide complete mechanical engineering, electronics, graphics and assembly documentation required for tooling, parts manufacturing and assembly.
Process: After a concept is approved by the client for further development, it is most often solid-modeled in the computer using sophisticated parametric Solidworks 3D CAD software. This allows the various detail aspects of every component to be refined and evaluated with the highest degree of accuracy. The entire product can be assembled and checked electronically in cyberspace, regardless of complexity, before any tooling or parts are actually made. Structural, durability, aesthetic and cost considerations usually guide the design and determine the optimum manufacturing method for each component. Production tooling such as patterns, drill jigs, welding fixtures and bonding fixtures often need to be designed as well.
Manufacturing tolerances of all components must be carefully determined to assure that the newly designed parts will always fit properly together while still remaining economical to manufacture.
Parts, electronics, graphics, assembly, and various tooling drawings are created, detailing all of the necessary tolerance, finishing and assembly information which CAD models alone cannot provide. These drawings are used by mold makers and machine shops to manufacture tooling and parts.
