Systems Engineering and Design

At Concentus, we nail it the first time. Precise systems engineering defines needs, fundamental principles shape the architecture, and rigorous analysis drives design. The result? Optimal performance, predictable outcomes, and guaranteed mission success.

Our Systems Engineering Services are designed to navigate the intricacies of complex projects, ensuring a seamless integration of components and functionalities across cross functional teams. With a focus on functional analysis of system level requirements for the purpose of defining the optimum physical architecture, we specialize in ensuring requirements clearly are defined and the system can be successfully verified and validated.

Concept Development

We bring your mechanical systems to life with revolutionary concepts. Through rigorous trade studies and unwavering attention to requirements, we craft the optimal physical architecture for unmatched performance and success.

Systems Engineering

Requirements Analysis

We help you define both functional and performance requirements for your mechanical system by focusing on "what" and not "how". This open-minded approach ensures you explore the broadest range of options and discover the absolute best solution, free from limitations.

We forge designs rooted in first principles, meticulously crafted to meet performance, reliability, and efficiency goals. All design solutions are analysis driven, then optimized and engineered for manufacturability and assembly. Thorough tolerance analysis is performed on all components, utilizing statistical methods when necessary to ensure robustness of assembly, integration and alignment of all features.

Composite Structures

When weight, stability, and strength are crucial factors, a composite structure becomes the go-to solution. Our primary expertise lies in various high-performance composite materials and their intricate application in structural design. We have a strong command in the design and analysis of honeycomb panels, bonded joints, and possess extensive knowledge of all relevant testing and analysis methods. With our experience and proficiency in this field, we ensure that our composite structures meet the highest standards of quality and performance.

Analysis Driven Design

Mechanisms

We partner with you to design mechanisms that are as reliable as they are precise, optimizing materials, minimizing unwanted movement, and exceeding your performance expectations.

Mechanical Layout

Avoid design dead ends. Our comprehensive mechanical layout considers crucial elements like electronics, heat pipes, plumbing, and more – from the get-go. Stop costly rework and embrace flexibility before your design's locked in.

Kinematic Design

Whether it's an electronic box, or an optical bench, all features are evaluated and optimized to ensure precise constraint, predictable load paths, achievable tolerances, and the most robust and economical way to achieve all performance and functional requirements.

Whether you seek assistance in evaluating an existing design for potential improvements on subsequent deliveries, or require expert troubleshooting for unpredictable or anomalous behavior, our design experts are here for you. Let us evaluate your design with a keen eye for efficiency and recommend enhancements that align with your objectives.

Prototype / Engineering Models

Throughout the concept development phase, creating a prototype proves advantageous for demonstrating functionality, conducting preliminary testing, and validating models. When a prototype is warranted, we collaborate with our fabrication partners to seamlessly bring your prototype to life. Whether you aim to showcase functionality, conduct early testing, or validate your model, our comprehensive services ensure a smooth journey from concept to tangible prototype.

Design of Experiments (DOE)

Unlock optimal performance of your design: Our expert DOE services extract invaluable insights through efficient experimentation, optimizing your systems and accelerating innovation.

Existing Design Consultation

Design Review

We can evaluate your existing design to ensure that it functions as good in real life as it looks in CAD. From evaluating potential assembly issues, to ensuring optimum load paths and constraints, we have the experience to ensure the design functions as expected the first time

Anomaly Resolution

Something isn't working. The parts don't go together correctly. Parts keep breaking on the shaker table. Performance isn't repeatable. With years of experience and a knack for anomaly resolution, we would love the opportunity to hear about what is troubling your design and help you realize your original vision successfully.
