If it holds together in a vacuum, a stratosphere, or a St. Louis winter, we designed it.
Mechanical owns everything physical. The frame that keeps a telescope pointed while a balloon swings under it, the structure of a satellite that has to survive a rocket launch, the enclosure that keeps a rooftop ground station dry in February.
Most of the work is CAD, analysis, and then actually making the part. We machine, print, and assemble in house, which means the thing you modeled on Tuesday can be in your hands by the weekend.
