Rocavo / Mechanical engineering
Develop the parts, mechanisms, structures and enclosures that make a product work. Bring a concept, an existing design or a specific problem to resolve.
The Rocavo AI Engine ↗In development to connect requirements, design and verification.
01 / Engineering capabilities
Mechanical engineering connects the function of a product to its geometry, materials, motion and manufacturing process. We can scope a focused design task or coordinate the mechanical work within a larger electronic, robotic or industrial system.
Develop part models and assemblies around functional requirements, interfaces and fabrication methods. Resolve dimensions, materials, finishes and assembly relationships before handing the design to a supplier.
Typical scope outputsPart and assembly models, drawing sets, revision notes and a bill of materials.
Develop linkages, guides, transmissions, positioning stages and other mechanisms. Consider travel, load, speed, backlash, duty cycle and maintenance when choosing the motion architecture.
Typical scope outputsMechanism concepts, component selections, motion checks and assembly layouts.
Fit electronics, connectors, displays, sensors and power components into a coherent physical design. Coordinate mounting, cable paths, access, heat paths and serviceability with the electrical layout.
Typical scope outputsEnclosure CAD, mounting details, board interfaces and integration drawings.
Evaluate load paths, stiffness and heat flow using calculations or simulation appropriate to the decision. Define boundary conditions and material assumptions, then identify where physical tests are needed.
Typical scope outputsAnalysis models, assumptions, engineering findings and recommended design changes.
Work through critical fits, datum choices and tolerance stacks so adjoining parts can locate, move and assemble as intended. Tie tight tolerances to a functional need and an inspection method.
Typical scope outputsInterface dimensions, tolerance studies, critical-feature notes and inspection inputs.
Review designs for machining, sheet metal, additive manufacturing or other selected processes. Address part count, fastening, assembly order, supplier feedback and access for tools or maintenance.
Typical scope outputsManufacturing revisions, assembly guidance and supplier clarification packages.
02 / Ways to put it to work
These example requests show how a project can begin. They describe possible scopes, not completed customer projects.
Develop an enclosure and internal mounting arrangement around a sensor, PCB and display, with access for calibration and service.
Turn a required stroke and payload into a mechanism layout, actuator selection and detailed mechanical design.
Complete an existing assembly’s drawings, tolerance decisions and parts list so a manufacturer can quote the intended scope.
03 / The Rocavo AI Engine
A smaller enclosure can change board placement, cooling, connector access and assembly order. We’re developing the Rocavo AI Engine to connect these decisions across disciplines, carrying requirements and changes through the engineering package.
Bring loads, geometry, environmental conditions and interfaces into one set of engineering requirements.
Identify the effect of a mechanical revision on electronics, wiring, software behavior and the build sequence.
Keep the models, drawings, analysis assumptions and planned verification aligned with the same revision.
The Engine is Rocavo’s internal platform, in active development. Your engagement has an agreed scope, engineering review points, deliverables and acceptance criteria.
Explore the approach ↗04 / The handoff
We define the deliverables around the work you need. A focused assignment may use only part of this package; a larger engagement can connect it to the other disciplines.
Requirements, interface definitions, concept options and the decisions behind the selected approach.
Agreed native and exchange CAD files, assembly information and manufacturing drawings with a defined revision.
Calculations or simulation results, assumptions, unresolved risks and changes from design reviews.
A bill of materials, assembly notes, supplier questions and inspection or test inputs for the contracted scope.
We agree file formats, source access, review stages, schedule and acceptance before work starts. Procurement, physical builds, commissioning, specialist reviews and ongoing support are identified separately where needed.
Before you begin
Either can be a starting point. We review the available information, identify missing requirements and agree whether the work is a concept study, a design revision or a detailed engineering package.
We agree native CAD requirements, exchange formats and drawing formats before work begins. If your team or supplier requires a specific tool or version, include that in the brief so compatibility can be confirmed.
It can include prototype or build support where agreed. The proposal distinguishes design work from procurement, fabrication, assembly and physical testing, and identifies responsibility for each.
A focused task or a larger system
Share the function, available space, loads or motion, operating conditions, existing CAD and the manufacturing process you have in mind. Incomplete inputs can be resolved in a first phase.
