Mechanical Design

From precision miniature optics assemblies to highway vehicles, Colorado Digital Labs provides mechanical design services for packaging, mechanical components, motion control and test fixture creation. We design precision motion control and drive train assemblies for medical instruments to hydraulic gate control systems for reservoirs and agricultural irrigation systems.

Colorado Digital also provides 3D printed components through 3'rd party service bureaus. This allows for fast and very cost competitive prototype and small run mechanical parts to be fabricated in a variety of materials including steel and nickel/chrome alloys.
