EXPERTISE
mechatronics.
Mechatronics embodies the integration of mechanics, electronics, software and control. This multidisciplinary expertise is key to the success of the Dutch high-tech industry and lies at the heart of our DNA. It has enabled our growth into a full-service design house that develops high-quality, innovative, complex systems and products. We have specialized in the mechatronic challenges centered around dynamics and motion control, with precision specifications running into the nanometer range.

design principles.
We master the design principles for accurate positioning and movement. These include stiff yet light-weight construction, proper control of the degrees of freedom, and energy management. To extend system performance, we optimize the eigenfrequencies and create statically constrained designs that exhibit neither play nor friction. We focus on athermalization, making the critical part of a construction temperature-insensitive, to limit the impact of thermal effects. In addition, we can make our designs energy-efficient, for example by applying active or passive gravity compensation.
