Mechanical Systems
Mechanical engineering and machine design are important across a wide range industries, with practical applications ranging from automotive design to industrial automation and manufacturing. As well, thermal management is an important area for technological innovation with todays' super-powered electronics and overheating data centers, including for cryptocurrency mining. Barr Group's team of expert mechanical engineers and industrial engineers is deeply experienced with mechanical design including:
- Rapid prototyping and 3D printing
- Electronic connectors and semiconductor packaging
- Industrial robotics and automation systems
- Mechatronics (i.e., integrated mechanical-electrical systems)
- Gearing and other energy transfer systems
- Thermal management and thermal analysis
- Liquid-immersion cooling and cold plates
- Data center heat management and cooling systems
- HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems
- Wind turbines and generators
- Fluid systems design
Barr Group's experts are familiar with the specialized software platforms used for mechanical design, such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, ANSYS, and Siemens NX, along with the MATLAB programming language. Our mechanical engineering experts are just as comfortable reviewing manufacturing processes as product development lifecycles (including PLM tools). They are also well-versed in meeting a range of design criteria and designing for optimal performance and reliability.
