Engineered Solutions
MCM designs turnkey product-testing equipment that exceeds standards, whether it’s in the lab or on the factory floor. We specialize in hydraulics, but often work in other areas, such as electronics and controls. Our goal is to produce to your specifications — and often use our experience and expertise to innovate beyond the specs to give you optimal results. We partner with you through every stage of production to ensure success.
Product Development
Our testing machines are ideal for the earliest stage of manufacturing: Product development. We sit down with you to build the most precise lab equipment to provide the benchmarks that will ensure performance, durability, and overall effectiveness of your product. And because we build with an eye toward the future, our machines are also versatile and resilient enough to be used in product development for decades.
Production
Outside of the lab, many of our machines are designed to be part of the assembly line to measure line efficiency and effectiveness. Our expertise enables us to seamlessly integrate with your operations, collect and display data in a clear and easy-to-use fashion, and add value to any component of your systems.
Durability
It’s vital to periodically test the durability of your product. Our lab machines are designed to simultaneously operate several components and simulate any extenuating circumstance that your product might reasonably encounter, including extreme temperatures, excessive pressures, high speeds, and disproportionate load and flow. These tests not only ensure your product enjoys a long lifespan, but they can also reinforce your standards of quality.
Build to Print
MCM also offers contract manufacturing. We will take your designs and manufacture and test your product to your specific delivery needs. We also offer value engineering to streamline cost and process. This frees you up from the overhead of manufacturing and savings on materials, while giving you flexibility and local control.
“The line performance was excellent and your organization did a great job. I am really happy that this project has gone well – as you know our folks are very demanding/particular with regard to test stand performance – getting an ‘A+’ from this group is not easy.”
Todd Zacreski, President of HUSCO International, Inc.
