WHAT WE DO?

OUR SERVICES OVERVIEW

Every product and project is different, so at Mentor Designs we offer services around product design, engineering, prototyping, and manufacturing to fit your needs.

Mechanical Design

_

Our passion is to use our engineering and design experience to create efficient solutions to challenging problems. We create a unique combination of engineering and design services to provide our customers with a cost-effective solution. We have experts to place in any phase of the product design cycle.

Electrical Engineering

_

A lot of projects require mechanical and electrical support. We expanded our team’s capabilities to include hardware / software development. We utilize the latest standards and ensure the design will perform as desired.

Prototyping
