Machine building / SPM

From imagination to the production floor.

Encoresys designs and builds special purpose machines (SPM) around your process — CAD/CAM design, electrical & controls, fluid power, motion control and machine vision, brought together in one build instead of handed off between vendors.

What goes into a build

One machine, six disciplines

A special purpose machine is rarely just mechanical. Encoresys handles the disciplines together, under one team, instead of stitching together separate vendors.

01

CAD / CAM Design

3D modelling, simulation and manufacturing drawings that define the machine before a single part is cut.

02

Electrical & Electronics

Panel design, wiring and control electronics sized correctly for the machine's actual duty cycle.

03

Fastening & Joining

Welding, mechanical fastening and material joining chosen for strength, maintainability and cost.

04

Fluid Power

Pneumatic and hydraulic systems sized and integrated for reliable, repeatable motion.

05

Motion Control

Servo, stepper and motion sequencing tuned to the speed and precision your process actually needs.

06

Machine Vision Integration

Cameras and inspection logic built into the machine itself, not bolted on as an afterthought.

Why Encoresys

Built to spec, built to last

Custom design, not catalogue parts

Every machine is designed against your actual specification, not adapted from a generic template.

Innovative, not overcomplicated

We look for the simplest mechanism that reliably does the job — complexity is a cost, not a feature.

Built for the operator

Ease of operation and maintenance is designed in from the start, not patched on after commissioning.

Cost targets held from day one

Component selection and part count are managed early, so budget doesn't drift during the build.

A look at the build

Machining, motion and assembly

Reference images for now — swap these for photos of your own installed machines when you're ready.

How a build runs

Design to commissioning, in five stages

The same sequence shown in the build console above — this is the real order a machine moves through, not a marketing checklist.

01 / Design

Form & function

Material selection, sketching and 3D rendering define the machine's overall form and layout.

02 / Simulate

Prove it on screen

Motion and process simulation catch clashes and cycle-time issues before metal is cut.

03 / BOM

Bill of materials

Components are specified and costed, with targets set and held from this point on.

04 / Assemble

Build & wire

Mechanical assembly, electrical wiring and controls integration happen together, not in isolation.

05 / Commission

Hit the floor

The machine is installed, tuned and handed over with operation and maintenance covered.

Case study

Custom assembly SPM for an electronics line

Problem: A client's manual sub-assembly station was the bottleneck on the line — inconsistent cycle times and no way to catch a missed component before it moved downstream.

Approach: Encoresys designed and built a purpose-built assembly machine with servo-driven motion, pneumatic fixturing, and an integrated vision check at the final station, commissioned on-site with full documentation.

As machines become more and more efficient and perfect, so it will become clear that imperfection is the greatness of man.
