Things that didn't exist in a catalog

Six anonymized custom builds — the industry, the challenge, what we built, and the result. Customer names and supplier identities are never disclosed.

AGV / AMR & Mobile Robotics

Integrated 48V wheel-drive servo module

Challenge

Replace a two-part wheel-drive assembly with a single unit.

What we built

Integrated 48V wheel-drive servo module — motor, gear, brake and CANopen driver in one housing.

RESULT · assembly time cut, one vendor
Equipment OEM · Japan — see EOL Rescue

Drop-in replacement for a discontinued motor

Challenge

A legacy DC geared motor was discontinued.

What we built

A drop-in replacement — reverse-matched dimensions, torque curve and connector.

RESULT · ~4,000 units/year recurring
Medical Devices & IVD

Custom-voltage micro diaphragm pump under a strict noise ceiling

Challenge

A micro diaphragm pump under a strict noise ceiling, with specified fluid-contact materials.

What we built

Custom-voltage micro diaphragm pump built with the specified fluid-contact materials.

RESULT · sample in [SAMPLE_WEEKS] weeks, documentation support
CEMS & Gas Sampling

150 °C gas sampling pump, Ex-proof

Challenge

Gas sampling at 150 °C reformed gas, with an Ex-proof requirement.

What we built

High-temperature gas sampling pump spec'd for 150 °C reformed gas, Ex-proof.

RESULT · field-deployed, certified build
Packaging & Factory Automation

Hollow-shaft rotary table stepper for an indexing station

Challenge

An indexing station where standard catalog units didn't fit the envelope.

What we built

Hollow-shaft rotary table stepper with custom reducer ratio and 1000 CPR encoder.

BUILT · custom ratio · 1000 CPR encoder · in the envelope
Packaging & Factory Automation

Driver firmware re-mapped to a fixed PLC register map

Challenge

The customer's PLC used a fixed Modbus register map.

What we built

Driver firmware re-mapped to match the PLC's register map, eliminating a protocol gateway.

RESULT · protocol gateway eliminated

None of these match? That's the point.
