Design and Mechanical Engineering
Engineer it for the factory floor, not just the studio
We engineer the concept into detailed CAD, working prototypes, and rigorous testing — until it's proven and production-ready.

“Working with Enki Product on the development of the Airbotx system has been an outstanding experience from start to finish. Their team demonstrated a rare combination of technical competence, design discipline, and professional integrity throughout the entire process.”

What we do
Mechanical Design & CAD
We develop detailed 3D models optimised for manufacturing: every tolerance, every wall thickness, every draft angle considered. Our engineers have led product categories at Dyson, and they hold that standard here.
Testing, Validation & Compliance
We build functional prototypes and put them through rigorous testing: durability, performance, safety and regulatory compliance. Problems are found and fixed before tooling, not after.
Design for Manufacture (DFM)
We engineer for the factory from the start. Material selection, tooling strategy, component count, assembly sequence: every decision is made with production cost and efficiency in mind.
Why it matters
The gap between a concept that looks right and a product that works right is engineering
Products reach us that were designed without a route to manufacture. Draft angles ignored. Wall thicknesses underestimated. Materials specified that do not exist at production volume. None of it shows up in a render. All of it shows up at tooling, when it is expensive to fix.
Our job is to make sure your product does not just look like it works. It works, it can be made at scale, and it meets the standards it has to meet. Almost all of our engineers came from Dyson within the last two years, and that rigour goes onto every project regardless of size.
The gap between a concept that looks right and a product that works right is engineering.
How We Work
01
Develop the design
We take the validated concept and develop it into refined 3D models, progressing through semi-integrated rigs to fully integrated prototypes. Every design decision is measured against cost, timeline, and manufacturing constraints.
02
Engineer for production
Tolerances, materials and processes are settled deliberately, not left open. Every design decision is measured against cost, timeline and manufacturing constraint, and once it is locked the documentation follows it.
03
We prove it before you spend on tooling
Functional prototypes are built and tested for compliance, durability and real use. Everything is validated before tooling investment. This is the stage that separates products that ship confidently from products that ship with fingers crossed.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Primarily Siemens NX and SolidWorks, depending on project requirements. Both produce production-grade engineering outputs that factories can work with directly.
-
We support the compliance process — designing to meet relevant standards (CE, UKCA, UL, FDA where applicable), coordinating testing, and preparing documentation. For formal certification, we work with accredited testing houses and manage the process on your behalf.
-
Typically 8-16 weeks for full engineering and DFM, depending on product complexity. Simple single-part products are faster. Multi-component assemblies with electronics or compliance requirements take longer. We give you a detailed timeline before work starts.
-
We regularly pick up projects from other designers. We'll assess the existing work honestly — what's usable, what needs rework, and what the gap is between where you are and production-ready. No ego, just a clear plan to get you to manufacture.
