Bespoke Engineering

A wide range of various companies employ bespoke engineering for solutions to the problems encountered in their industry. Typically, a company would look into a bespoke solution for common issues or problems that they are constantly dealing with, causing their business not to operate and perform effectively. A bespoke engineering solution helps the company to perform more effectively and efficiently, allowing them to operate at its maximum capacity.

Bespoke solutions have been used in warehouse facilities and different industries to improve their production lines. Whether it is for electronic items, dc motors, brushless motors, or food, an effective production line helps improve the manufacturing of these products. Belt conveyors and heavy rollers are made according to the bespoke measurements and requirements to ensure the best standard operation in the production line.

Specialists providing bespoke engineering services are also able to help manufacturing companies in producing even the smallest bespoke parts. For instance, in the engineering and electronic industries, there are manufacturing companies that create dc motors’ parts, brushless motors’ parts, and gearheads according to their bespoke requirements and measurements. A bespoke engineering solution eliminates the need for companies to deal with different subcontractors.

Bespoke solutions are not only for companies, it is also for those who want to have bespoke parts for their car or motorbike. Bespoke solutions can be anything from integrating a personal design into the vehicle or improving the vehicle’s engine performance. One can also have bespoke parts created, designed, and integrated onto their vehicle. Some companies can even produce a brand new bespoke vehicle.

Bespoke engineering has been used in numerous ways to help improve products and services, making sure that they meet the client’s exact requirements. Spend some time in finding the right company that provides bespoke solutions, and make sure that a reputable engineer is there to provide the best solution.

X is for X-ray






is for X-ray







X-rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation. They can pass through all uncompressed gasses and some solid and liquid substances. They are commonly used to take images inside objects most notably for inspecting internal damage to the inside of the human body, usually damage to bones.

Some electrical components are known to give off X-rays and so it is important to take this into account during electronic manufacture processes. Small doses of radiation can be very damaging in the long term.

W is for Watt





is for Watt






In electronics and electronic manufacture a watt is a unit of measure for the rate that energy is transferred or converted. It is the equivalent of one joule per second is is usually represented by the symbol W. It is named after James Watt a famous engineer from Scotland for his input in the creation of the steam engine.

V is for Volt






is for Volt







The Volt is a unit of measure for electromotive force, electric potential and potential difference and so is a very important part of electronic manufacture. It is usually represented by the symbol V. The name comes from Alessandro Volta who is widely regarded as the inventor of the first chemical battery.

In trying to explain what a volt is, voltage difference is usually compared to water pressure difference in water filled pipes.

U is for Unijunction Transistor






is for Unijunction Transistor






As the name suggests a unijunction transistor is a transistor with just one junction. It was a very popular component used in hobbyist electronic design in the 60s and 70s because it allowed for the easy construction of oscillators. When used of part of a PCB assembly they usually use surface mount construction.

T is for Technology





is for Technology






When it comes to electronic design and engineering the way that technology moves is very important. Advances in the manufacture process of electrical components helps technology evolve. We're beginning to see things that we never would've dreamt of a few years ago making an appearance in electronic design and the sky really is the limit.

S is for Switch






is for Switch






Where electronic design is concerned a switch is a component that can be used to make or break a circuit. A switch may be used to power on or power off a device or divert power elsewhere. They can be manually activated or can be controlled by the level or power flow amongst other automated causes.
