Electromechanical Test Rigs & Special Purpose Machinery

DESIGN AND BUILD OF TEST RIGS AND SPECIAL PURPOSE MACHINERY

Vale Machinery Design designs and builds for industrial manufacturers, from concept sketch to working hardware. Most rig designers stop at the structure and hand the moving parts to someone else. We do both: the mechanical design, and the motors, drives, actuators, sensors and control that make it work. You get one accountable point of contact from first idea to first run.

Drawing inspiration from the Toyota Production System and Kaizen, solid planning, strong customer relationships and continuous improvement are valued equally alongside great solutions.

WHAT WE DO

We work with manufacturers and their engineering and R&D teams across the UK, acting as a single point of contact for the following:

  • Concept Sketching

  • Test rig design and build

  • Motor, drive and actuator selection and sizing

  • Sensors, instrumentation and data acquisition

  • Mechanical and electromechanical engineering design

  • Technical drawings to BS8888

  • Prototyping with access to machining, fabrication and additive processes

  • Special Purpose Machinery

“Fin was fantastic throughout the entire process. I’d happily use his services again. Fin embodies the qualities I look for in a business partner, Vision, communication, and reliability.”

Sam Feldman

We have been working with Vale Machinery Design for a number of months now, to develop some mechanical automation for one of our processes.

The great communication and quick deliverables have left us with a fantastic basis to move forward
