GKS has been helping customers solve inspection and engineering problems at all stages of the product development cycle for more than 25 years. Teaming up with its leading 3D non-contact and contact scanning services used for reverse engineering, dimensional inspection, and large-scale measurement, we introduce to our offerings complementary product design and engineering services because many companies also need expert assistance in the design phase. The experience and background of our design engineers fulfill a need with OEMs and their suppliers for high-level product design as well as industrial engineering services such as FEA analysis and feasibility studies. The new product design and engineering services make GKS a complete product development partner.
We offer many different types of engineering services to suit our customers’ needs. What sets us apart from other companies is our training in many different types of manufacturing criteria. We understand how parts are created and will design for a specific process, preventing costly engineering changes at the end of the development cycle.
GKS design engineers use software such as ProEngineer, ICEM Surf, Solidworks and Unigraphics to create and develop designs from conceptual sketches into intelligent and useable models. We are able to deliver quick turnaround, competitive pricing, high quality data files, and excellent customer service. From concept through production, GKS delivers.
Reverse Engineering: Using our state of the art equipment we will scan any object to duplicate and modify existing products, prototype parts, or conceptual models. With over 25 years in the inspection and laser scanning business, our staff can quickly and accurately reverse engineer any object. Our tolerances and deliverable formats are flexible to your demands. We can even offer rapid prototypes of many different methods, all the way to production tooling by working with our vast network of experts in many industries.
Product Design and Engineering: We integrate into our customer’s team to deliver the product they envision. Our
Design Team Integration process allows our mechanical engineering, professional engineering, and CAD
modeling specialists to integrate seamlessly into customers’ engineering and industrial design groups to create the most cost-effective product while maintaining the original design intent. GKS engineering contractors are frequently embedded inside the customers’ offices working side-by-side with the corporate team. Working with your engineers, we translate your ideas into reality.
Our expert engineers have extensive experience designing vehicles for industries including agricultural, construction, recreational, and defense. This group includes some of the top class-A surfacing experts in the world. Possessing substantial experience in designing high accuracy plastic parts, the GKS engineers also understand the molding process extremely well.
The bottom line is that we can save you time and money and we have the experience to handle the complicated projects that your employees and other contractors may find difficult. In conjunction with GKS’ existing scanning, reverse engineering and dimensional measurement services, we now have the complete capability to take a product from concept to manufacturing.
