Engineering Support for Custom Machinery Projects

Keller Technology Corporation (KTC) provides custom machinery engineering support to guide the design, development and manufacturing of complex systems. Whether you’re developing a new system from the ground up or updating an existing design, our team is equipped to provide the insight and services needed to turn complex engineering challenges into scalable, manufacturable solutions.

Custom Machinery Engineering Support Capabilities

Custom machinery development demands engineering expertise that spans concept through long-term support. Keller’s engineering team works alongside customers to design, refine and sustain complex mechanical and electro-mechanical systems, applying practical insight and disciplined execution at every stage of the machine lifecycle.

Concept and Product Development

Concept and Product Development

We collaborate with your internal teams to transform ideas into viable mechanical or electro-mechanical systems. This includes feasibility studies, initial design scoping and collaborative development processes aligned with your goals.

Engineering Analysis, CAD and Modeling

Engineering Analysis, CAD and Modeling

Our experienced engineers use advanced CAD tools and analytical techniques to ensure performance, fit and reliability. From static and dynamic load analysis to 3D modeling, we help validate design decisions early in the process.

Design for Manufacturability and Reliability

Design for Manufacturability and Reliability

Building on our semiconductor expertise, Keller also manufactures vacuum chambers and assemblies for photovoltaic (PV) applications, including:

  • Wafer handling
  • Deposition
  • Flexible PV in-vacuum web handling
  • Thermal processing

Value Engineering

Value Engineering

Our team conducts design reviews with an eye toward material optimization, component standardization and simplification of assembly. These changes often lead to better performance, easier maintenance and lower overall system costs.

Prototyping and Machine Design

Prototyping and Machine Design

We offer support for full and sub-system prototyping, with iterative refinement and full system integration. Keller’s mechanical and controls engineers collaborate to ensure designs are both functional and practical to build.

Electrical Engineering and Controls Software

Electrical Engineering and Controls Software

Our in-house electrical engineering team develops robust industrial control solutions including PLCs, HMIs, motion control and vision systems. We support a variety of hardware platforms and software environments.

Sustaining and Service Engineering

Sustaining and Service Engineering

 

Once systems are in the field, Keller can support service modifications, part obsolescence strategies and updates to documentation for future builds. We help ensure the longevity and serviceability of your equipment.

Additional Engineering Support Services

  • Documentation improvements for production handoff  
  • Work instruction creation and refinement  
  • Development of custom test procedures and acceptance criteria  
  • Functional test station development and execution
