Design Innovation & Unique Solutions

Our Goal is to find the Elegant Solution for each customer and for each project. “Elegant” is a blend of Function, Science & Style which often requires innovative thinking. We create:

Unique Engineering Solutions
Creative Design and often Invention
Expanding Technology
Patent (and other IP) Assistance

The Elegant Solution usually comes with careful consideration of both function and aesthetics. It may be inventing something new, or modifying an application of existing technology — perhaps borrowed from another industry. It’s all part of Design Innovation for Solutions.

Innovation is a key benefit in working with Synthesis — as illustrated by the List of Patents we’ve helped our customers with. Contact us to discuss your unique needs, or

Product Development / R&D

The process by which ideas transform into products is called “Product Development“. Synthesis services include:

From Concept to Customer (or any portion between)
Complex Modeling and 3D CAD Expertise
Integration of System Level Engineering
Engineering Research & Development (R&D)
Prototype Design, Build or Fabrication
Design Optimization

The process works through the many details, often design, prototypes, testing and analysis to achieve the final, desired product. Read the “The Product Development Process” article for information about the process, and our Engineering Services Page on Product Development for details about what we offer and how we might best serve you.

Product Development is our domain, our expertise, and a primary focus of our Engineering Services. Please Contact Us if you have questions, or would like assistance with a project.

Machine Design, Build & Manufacturing Support

We design and build Custom Machines of all sorts, as well as Custom Tools, Jigs and special Fixtures. These are often used with:

Factory Automation & Robotic Systems
On-the-Jobsite Processing or Expediting
Embedded Controllers & Programming
Custom Tooling, Jigs and Fixtures
Tooling or Mold Design Concepts

We have helped many companies with Custom Machines — for Manufacturing, for Production and for Service needs. Large or small, simple or complex, manual or robotic — we assist with understanding needs, optimizing processes, then designing things to make it all work better, faster, smoother or more accurate. We also build many of the custom machines we design.

If any of this falls in your bucket of needs, we’re just a Click Away.

Electronics Integration, Design & Packaging

Many of our projects include Electronics, either at the heart of the project or as a control or a supporting element.

Custom Exteriors (cases, enclosures, packaging) for Your Electronics
Electrical Design for Controllers
Wired and Wireless Electronics
Embedded Controllers for Machines
Custom Electronic Devices

Some of our customers build and sell electronic products, but they have us create the exterior for them, or design special cases or enclosures. Other customers request designs for packaging or mounting or shipping. We do all of this.

We also do robotic controls (some) as part of the machines we build, industrial integration and, of course, consumer oriented products that have electronics inside.

Can we help? Perhaps point you in the right direction? Just Ask.

How Can We Help?

The Six areas of Core Expertise come from wide and varied experience with many customer projects, as well as with projects done for ourselves. These are areas where we’ve proven ourselves through our work, and we are confident in our abilities.

Yet, we are not limited by these. For additional skills, we leverage our “Team Partners“ for their expertise. That is, the Synthesis way of ‘bringing the pieces together‘ for our customers.

The Elegant Solution

Our goal is always to find the Elegant Solution for each customer and for each project. It’s a tough standard, but we do it because that’s who we are. It is a great compliment when a customer exclaims “Wow, that’s so simple! Why didn’t I think of that ?!?” It’s in those moments we know all the hard work and head scratching is worth it.

A quest for the Elegant Solution is sometimes a quest for the Holy Grail – especially when exploring new ground for new technology. Fortunately, we have a wide breadth of experience that offers ideas from other industries to draw from. When we combine and processes these together, then we achieve the unique, and elegant solutions. This is how we create amazing new products. Our experience is power to you, and that is one of the things that make our Engineering Services so attractive.

Synthesis Engineering Services

The name Synthesis is descriptive of the way we approach business. Because there is so much involved in engineering services, that it is impossible for one company to do everything. We know that, so we founded the company on the principles of Synthesis. Basically, we do in-house the things we do best, then orchestrate the peripherals in ways that support the customer and “bring together” the best providers to fill the needs. — Read more About Us.
