Customised products and services (CPS)
Do you need to reduce your paperwork, cut your vendor base, lower costs or simplify production?
For manufacturers there is the ever-present pressure of ensuring components are ready for production on time. This involves taking products from stores and carrying out modifications before returning them to the shelf ready for later use in the build process. It means stocking numerous components, additional drawings and administration, assembly work which may contain errors and is of course expensive.
What is really required are products delivered from your supplier, ready for installation when you need them!
To make your life easier, Micromech is ready to undertake these numerous modifications. We produce special shafts and flanges, add cables and connectors to motors, paint, fit gearboxes and encoders, as well as producing special adapters for fitting motors to actuators and brackets for assembly into multi axis mechanical systems.
Using our in-house technical expertise, we modify 'supplied' parts to fit existing systems, whether it be a simple motor cable, or gearbox flanges or any other component. So not only do we supply your motors, drives and controls, we offer the following additional services:
Mechanical:
- Finished parts - to your specification, this could include painting, spraying, coating, part number marking, labels and environmental protection
- Machined modifications - this includes flanges, special adapters, keyways and special shafts
- Assembly of components - fitting together brakes, clutches, couplings, adapter plates, gearboxes and even your own free issue parts
-
Completed assembly test - then supplied with appropriate documentation
Electrical:
- Assembly - fitting motor connectors, extending motor leads, sleeving motor leads, rack assembly, etc
- Modification - PCB changes, leads/cables fitted to PCB’s, vacuum preparation
Electronic:
- PCB - design and development, motion control system build
- Software Engineering - customised control functionality and communication solutions
Note: all these products will carry the customer’s part number (if required) and our own unique SP number
Micromech Systems
Since 1990, Micromech Systems Limited (MSL) has evolved into a system build and automation specialist, catering for the changing role of the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), manufacturers and research establishments. As large OEM's downsize and manufacturers seek ways to reduce costs they look for a cost-effective sub-contract facility or an automation company to provide the skills and experience to improve production. Research, pharmaceutical, life sciences, medical and university organisations are also increasingly requiring specialist support. MSL has a strong reputation in offering these services and as a result now has an increasing number of customers enter into long term relationships.
Why automation, why systems integration, why Micromech Systems ?
There are these days a constant development of new technologies, processes and manufacturing techniques that all businesses must adopt to increase efficiency and productivity. They have to balance higher quality with reduced costs while being very flexible to accommodate ever-changing demand and product development. On top all this there are Health and safety regulations as well as deluge of employment laws affecting production. System build and automation is often the answer, which is where MSL can help. Our success in developing motion control and automation systems for a wide range of industries, which include printing, packaging, machine tools, automotive, research, nuclear and food processing, is due to our ability to listen carefully to customer needs and delivering the project on time and within budget.
Stealth
Under the Stealth brand, Micromech is now the prime distributor offering these excellent Parker EME gearheads, and as Parker’s motion partner, Micromech still has access to all the currently manufactured gearhead products enabling us to support the market for current and legacy products.
stealth is the characteristic of
'moving with extreme care and quietness'
