Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical design plays a critical role in protecting electronics, managing environmental conditions, supporting components, and ensuring products perform reliably throughout their operational life.
Today's rugged electronic systems depend on more than reliable electrical and software design.
Mechanical Engineering Designed for Reliable Systems
STL Engineering develops mechanical solutions for rugged electronics, working alongside our electrical, software, and product engineering teams to deliver fully integrated systems designed for demanding environments. By considering mechanical, electrical, and software requirements together from the earliest stages of development, we help reduce integration challenges while supporting long-term reliability and maintainability. This integrated approach also allows STL to deliver turnkey end-to-end product solutions.

Mechanical Design & Development
Designed Around Your System
Every product has unique structural, environmental, dimensional, and operational requirements. STL Engineering develops mechanical designs that protect and support critical components while addressing performance, usability, manufacturability, and service requirements.
Typical capabilities include:
-
Mechanical design and development
-
Enclosure and chassis design
-
Structural design
-
Component integration
-
Detailed 3D CAD modelling
-
Design for manufacturability
-
Design for assembly and serviceability
Rugged electronics must perform reliably in environments where vibration, shock, temperature, moisture, dust, and other environmental conditions can place significant demands on mechanical systems. STL Engineering designs mechanical solutions with these operating conditions in mind, helping protect sensitive electronics while maintaining system performance throughout the product lifecycle.
Typical capabilities include:
-
Rugged enclosure design
-
Shock and vibration considerations
-
Environmental protection
-
Thermal management
-
Sealing and ingress protection
-
Structural analysis
-
Material and finish selection
